There was nothing to dislike. Everything was just perfect, the staff and food was exceptional. Just four bungalow rooms, set apart which gave privacy. Coffee and home made biscuits brought to the veranda first thing in the morning to enjoy while looking over the beach and sea.

Paradise on Earth
Unique gateaway in a secluded area in Zanzibar. Amazing team of hosts, high quality gastronomy, perfect to unwind, rebalance and enjoy nature’s beautiful offerings. The colors of sky and ocean, the brightness of a sky illuminated with stars, the softness of the winds take you to a different dimension. Big thumbs up to Nigel.

Magic
our stay in Jua was a magic holiday. All the staff ( Hassan, Emmanuel, Mousa, and the Kitchen Chief ..) were very professional. They did everything we requested. The Villa is very beautiful ( the only thing to improve will be to avoid insectes come in...otherwise il was very nice ). The food was amazing..Thanks for all the staff .

Bliss.
Truly sensational. This ‘hotel’ only has 4 rooms so it has a really personal feel, the staff seem to take real pleasure in making you feel welcome, relaxed, well fed, and thoroughly looked after. The room was brilliant with great views and a private plunge pool. Asante sana.
