为什么人们喜欢它
- Stunning 'African minimalist' architecture with bamboo-pressed concrete walls
- Ocean View Suites have private plunge pools that feel suspended over the cliff
- The 100-meter infinity pool is arguably the most photogenic in Jambiani
快速了解： Visually spectacular and incredibly peaceful, but the restaurant service is painfully slow and the roosters will wake you up at dawn.
@momi_m_s 的评论: I stayed at Bamboo Zanzibar and it was a total dream. The bamboo design is stunning, and waking up to the ocean breeze was exactly the reset I needed. The spa treatments were a highlight of my trip. Highly recommend for a romantic getaway.
住过这里的客人说
Reality check
Almost everyone complains about the restaurant speed and price, and Garden Bungalow guests often wish they had splurged for the Ocean View to avoid the noise and bugs.
- You are a design snob who appreciates raw concrete and sustainable materials
- You are a honeymooner seeking a private plunge pool and floating breakfast
- You are okay with 'slow island life' and don't need snappy service
清洁与维护
9.1
- Housekeeping: Daily and thorough, with evening turndown service.
- Bathroom hygiene: Spotless grout and fixtures, but the open-air design means you might find leaves or ants.
- Maintenance: Excellent condition; the polished concrete and wood are well-maintained.
- Linens & towels: High-quality, crisp white linens and fluffy towels.
- Odors & scents: Fresh ocean breeze and lemongrass; no musty smells reported.

常见问题和隐藏提示
预订前您真正想了解的一切。
Is the beach swimmable?
Only at high tide. At low tide, the water recedes massively, leaving a beautiful but unswimmable sandflat perfect for walking.
Is there AC in the rooms?
Yes, the rooms have air conditioning, but the open-air bathroom design can let some warm air (and bugs) in.
How is the WiFi?
Surprisingly good for Zanzibar; reliable enough for emails and basic streaming, even in the rooms.
Can I bring my kids?
No, this is strictly an adults-only property (15+ years old).
How far is it from the airport?
About 1 hour to 1 hour 20 minutes by taxi. Transfers cost around $50-$65.
Is the food expensive?
Yes, for Zanzibar standards. Expect Western prices ($20+ for mains) and very slow service.
内部人士建议
- ✨
Walk 10 minutes down the beach to 'Chez Hassan' for delicious local seafood at half the price (but still slow service).
- ✨
The 'TV' in the room is literally the window; there are no actual televisions.
- ✨
Book the 'floating breakfast' in advance; it's their signature Instagram moment.
- ✨
The hotel filters its own water and provides it in glass bottles to reduce plastic waste.
出发前需要了解的5件事
💡The walls are made of concrete with actual bamboo pressed into it for texture—it's not just a name.
💡You will likely share your outdoor shower with a gecko or two.
💡The 'slow food' philosophy is taken literally; order dinner 2 hours before you are actually hungry.
💡The tide goes out so far you can walk almost to the reef, but you need protective shoes for sea urchins.
💡The stairs to the beach can be a workout if you're going up and down frequently.
