Positive: Mamamapambo Boutique Hotel in Jambiani was nothing short of a dream. This charming boutique hotel, nestled directly on the white sands of Jambiani Beach, offers an authentic Zanzibari experience that’s hard to beat. From the moment we arrived, the warm hospitality of the staff made us feel right at home. The manager Giuseppe and the whole team were exceptionally friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to ensure every detail of our stay was perfect. Their care was genuine and heartfelt. The hotel itself is a gem, with only six beautifully decorated rooms that blend traditional African style with modern comforts. The room was spacious, clean, and featured a large four-poster bed draped with mosquito nets, a private veranda, and a generous bathroom with a powerful shower. Waking up to the sound of waves and the sight of the turquoise Indian Ocean was pure magic. The hotel’s design, with its thatched roofs and lush tropical gardens, creates a serene and rustic ambiance that instantly puts you at ease. The food at Mamamapambo was a highlight. The restaurant, with stunning views of the ocean and garden, serves a delightful mix of Italian and Swahili cuisine. The breakfast was generous and fresh, with options to accommodate dietary needs. Having tea & coffee, sipped on the veranda while watching the sunrise, were some of the best I’ve ever had. The location is ideal for those seeking tranquility. Jambiani is a quiet fishing village, and the hotel’s beachfront setting offers endless opportunities for long walks on the powdery sand towards south coast or towards Paje & Bwejuu to the north; or swimming in the calm, turquoise waters during high tide. Low tide reveals fascinating rock pools teeming with marine life, perfect for exploration. The free Wi-Fi was reliable, and the small pool was a lovely spot to cool off while enjoying ocean views. The village next door added to the authentic experience for me.
Summary: Overall, Mamamapambo Boutique Hotel is a haven of relaxation, authenticity, and charm.
