Very nice, cozy villa on beach side. Everywhere a round villa is clean, inside too. Very friendly staff, very hospitable owner. Nice restaurant, very delicious meal. My strong recommendations 😉One of he best villa in this aria

After a bad night in baby Bush Lodge we found this awesome place, VILLA VANILLA, thank God we find it.They give us a very nice room, free of bugs, with balcony and hot water.What to say about this beautiful villa, it has a good price and very high quality, they have an awesome pool, next to the beach, their staff are very kind and professional.And the food... Its excellent, the chef is a great cooker. They have the tipical food in zanzibar, excellent sea food plate, pasta, tartar... And the breakfast also incredible.Its a quiet place where you can relax and rest and see the local people working in the sea, even the beach is almost for yourself. Local people doesnt try to sell you their staff as in other villages.We will come back for sure, thank you so much to the owner Anthony for his hospitality and to his wife and staff.

The staff is very hospitable and helpful, the place is nice and clean, and the service is amazing. Awesome location right beside the beach. Delicious food, especially the Crab Soup and the Seafood Pasta.

👍 perfect location, right on the beach. Perfecy managment, super comfortable rooms. Thanks

That nice

Amazing place. A must stay when in Zanzibar

Very beautiful hotel

Great place! Recommend to visit !

Nice beach

Everything was ok, very big room, clean swimming pool.

Decent, comfortable hotel. Air conditioning ok except when power cut. Bedroom with mosquito net windows. Pleasant and welcoming staff. Wifi ok RAS and breakfast ok but neither extraordinary nor satiating.Negative point: attractive nightly price but very expensive meal and service prices.Strong mosque prayers morning and evening. Hotel unfortunately Badly oriented in the morning great sun at 6 am in the room and in the evening swimming pool and others in the shade at 3 pm and a lot of wind at the end of November.To conclude normal value for money. Good, friendly welcome.

Magnificent villa with a lovely swimming pool, the staff are so kind, really caring, the beach is sublime. The food is very good! I highly recommend !

A very cool place for a relaxing holiday, where you want to return! This is a modern, newly renovated villa with spacious rooms and every comfort. Thanks to the hospitable and open owners Anton and Oksana, our vacation here has become a family-like soul. There are not many people in the hotel, as there are only 6 rooms. You can safely sunbathe on the beach or near the pool, beach-boys, sellers of everything, as near noisy large hotels, there are no. An excellent chef works in the villa, thanks to whom we first tasted sea urchins, ate seafood to the heap - octopuses, lobsters, squids, king prawns. The portions are huge. Everything is fresh. Compared to other hotels on the coast, it is tastier and cheaper here. This was quickly understood by everyone in the area, so they came to us to eat from neighboring hotels, where it was all inclusive. Breakfast was different every day, with a wide variety of fruits, pastries, pancakes, scrambled eggs - everything was done personally for us, as soon as we woke up. Many thanks to the host guys, you are the best!

A wonderful place for a relaxing family vacation. A villa on the very shore of the ocean, comfortable comfortable rooms, a wonderful cafe where you can eat the freshest seafood, fruits at the local market are plentiful and very cheap. Pool, sun loungers, in general, the beauty is incredible. The hosts Anton and Oksana are wonderful and welcoming people. The ocean is just space. The ebb did not bother absolutely. A complete delight, we want to return!

Rested in January 2021. I really liked everything) the villa is located on the ocean, the balcony offers an incredible view.Friendly hosts and friendly staff. Spacious rooms. Located in the Pwani Mchangani area, suitable for solitude lovers. I recommend 👍

I highly do not recommend this place. All the rest we ate in other establishments located nearby. Waikiki, Sofia, everything is delicious, no negative consequences. Having dined in this vanilla establishment, the rest of the day, excuse the expression, did not have time to replace each other in the restroom. Read reviews, called!Reply to the owner. I did not specifically edit the original text. 1. Regarding the genus - a banal autocorrect.2. Now I understand why everything is so bad in this establishment, this is a consequence of the attitude of the owner, who, after receiving a negative feedback from the client, instead of working on mistakes, tries to convince himself and the others that this is someones invention, tries to offend something author, etc.3. Were on January 13 at 15-00, to prove the visit I am attaching a photo of the dish, I think you will find out, you can say that it is not yours, you can try to look for spelling or punctuation errors in the review, try to hurt something else (to no avail), however, this is not will correct the situation in the institution.4. In addition, I will say. There is no service, the bartender, he is the waiter (girl), instead of meeting visitors, she was stupidly sitting in the phone, hiding behind the counter, she saw us only when I took the menu myself. The tables are sticky, no one wiped them, and they did not do this when serving, serving. Broken glass was scattered under the table, my wife almost cut herself (after the visit, they left it on the table).

Nice restaurant by the sea. Delicious seafood. The octopus is a little sandy, but tasty. Sometimes there is no electricity, so they cannot make fresh

A good restaurant by the ocean. Delicious food and drinks (seafood, fried bananas, fresh fruit), nice staff and affordable prices.Helped us with the organization of dinner by the ocean, under the stars, it was incredibly beautiful and atmospheric.

Actually so-so. Pluses Russian-speaking owners, delicious dinners. The price tag is overpriced, like everywhere else in Zanzibar. Booking rating is very different from reality.

An excellent hotel in a beautiful location with an authentic village a few meters away.All liked it.Room with balcony and ocean view super

Didnt live here, but were passing through. Nice, clean and comfortable.

Super location. As if they came to visit friends) and the food is very tasty, which is rare in Zanzibar!

Nice, clean and very tasty.

A great place for a quiet family vacation.

It has a beautiful scenery

A wonderful place is right by the ocean, there is also a pool)))

Thank you for a great stay.

Everything is simply beyond praise !!!
