Alibi's Well, hotel in Jambiani

Alibi's Well is set in Jambiani, a few steps from Jambiani Beach, 300 metres from Paje Beach, and 25 km from Jozani Forest. This beachfront property offers access to a patio.

It is a really nice place and the staff if very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and you really feel the privacy. We liked the breakfast very much, which was prepared thoughtfully by Ibrahim (and he included small tasty surprices every morning). The room was cleaned twice a day and always with a smile. The veranda had a wonderful view so the morning coffee always felt special. All in all a very pleasent stay.

    We liked the warm welcome from the hosts and staff. The property is not on the beach but access is easy by walking through the village. The property restaurant is managed by an Italian chef, the food is excellent. It’s next level to what we find in the area. We had diner for the four nights of our stay!. Jambiani is a nice quiet beach.

    Great location directly at the beach. Nice beach, nice swimming pool. Good restaurant in the hotel and great cheap african restaurants very close behind the hotel. Very clean eberything, and friendly stuff, especially Lina. We liked the endless beach with a lot of great beach bars and restaurants nearby. The room is clean and the sunrise and ocean view is superb.

    We booked for 3 nights and ended up staying over 2 weeks! We got lucky to be there at the time the hostel guests formed a really nice group, but when when quieter this place felt like an oasis of peace, relaxation and perfect holidays. The swimming pool is a blessing at any time of the day or night, the breakfast was so delicious, the staff was very kind. The location, hidden from the busy and touristy Paje, was perfect as it felt like coming back home to a comfy place. Very cheap accommodation. Definitely the best hostel in Zanzibar for me!

    Great location. Very nice hosts. The room is clean but poorly equipped. Breakfast ok but juices tasteless and too diluted with water. Evening barbecue with seafood and fish sensational. Peace and quiet and very safe.

    Amazing little hotel 1 minute to Jambiani beach. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Great location next to superb local restaurants On the quieter side of the beach but only a 5-10 minute to cover everything you'd need. Excellent staff - Carlos is an amazing host! Laundry services super cheap. Breakfast was nice with different amazing fruits, pancakes and fresh juice. We enjoyed it every morning.

    great quiet boutique hotel with very nice staff and great location. The tide on the beach was no problems at all as we enjoyed a walk to the blue water in about 20min at low tide, and could swim easily when high. Prices were very good and the hotel offers great value for money, charm and a nice homey atmosphere that we loved. we had an incredible stay, were able to fully relax and recharge and were pleased by the full team - in particular Happy always doing her best to make our stay magical! Recommend 100%.
