Beautiful, peaceful stay with friendly staff.

It was peaceful and comfortable, with very nice and helpful staff. Beautiful accommodation, which was well decorated and designed. The location was quiet, and easy to walk to the beach from there.

Falling Short of Expectations

My initial impression of the hotel differed significantly from the online photographs. The neglected pool area, with its weedy edges, cloudy water, and faded, weathered furniture, was a disappointing first sight. Check-in was pleasant, with friendly staff and a welcome drink. However, our first-floor room, situated beside a common area, was underwhelming. It resembled a basic backpacker accommodation: small, musty, and dimly lit, lacking windows. While clean, it lacked the advertised vibrancy. The room offered functional amenities, including effective air conditioning, a ceiling fan, a mosquito net, ample electrical outlets, complimentary water and toiletries, and tea/coffee facilities. The bathroom, despite a small window, had a poorly fitting door and a shower without a cubicle. The mildly salty water lacked hot water on our first morning, requiring manual activation. Breakfast was a redeeming factor, offering a good selection of freshly prepared options with jam, toast, coffee, and juice. Our first evening meal, however, was a major letdown. The prawn curry, served with a few minuscule, likely frozen shrimp hidden among vegetables, was far from satisfactory. The accompanying fries were excellent, but the curry itself was a poor value. When we expressed our disappointment to the waiter, who consulted the chef, we were told the dish should contain six prawns. This was unacceptable given their size and quality. While the second night's burger was adequate, the fries were inferior. Overall, this hotel fell short of expectations and didn't align with the positive reviews we'd seen.

Dream stay at a luxurious boutique hotel with pool in fabulous location.

We loved everything about Daima. It is a luxurious and calming haven just a 1 minute walk from the beach. This part of the beach is very clean and chilled. Everything there is quality. The room was superb, the pool fabulous, it’s very quiet and peaceful. There is private secure parking. Breakfast was excellent comprising fruit, toast and omelette - other choices also available such as avocado toast. The staff were great but the highlight was Jimal who attended to every detail with a big smile. He made our stay special. We wished we had stayed longer!

Absolutely fantastic location and staff a credit to the owner here

This property is amazing and the staff are absolutely fantastic including everyone from the cleaners to the 3 front of house staff Jamil, Kelvin and Lisa even including the security James . These guys really can’t do enough for you and nothing is to much and they really go the extra mile , the food has been amazing and I would highly recommend the prawns in coconut sauce compliments to the chef

Great place

We just had a great time to celebrate our special occasion. They welcomed us with a super good welcome juice and a surprise in our room. The staff was amazing. Everybody was very sweet and polite, always asking us if we needed anything. The facilities (pool, dining areas etc) were cozy and beautiful. We mostly ate out, but based on 1 lunch and some snacks we were really happy of the lunch/dinner menu.

Relaxing days in lovely modern accommodation close to the beach

The staff were exceedingly helpful and friendly, really nice and willing to do everything possible for us to be pleased. The apartment was really lovely with spacious rooms, very comfy beds, a good bathroom and everything you need. The accommodation seems to have two buildings, each with its own swimming pool, and they kept us separate from each other so we had an entire swimming pool for us and another apartment. They also have a restaurant with good quality food. You can pay by card if you like which is convenient. The location is very good: it's second line from the sea, but only 1 min walk from the beach. Jambiani is quiet relaxing and picturesque.

Clean, comfortable, welcoming home from home

The Villa suited us we rented both apartments for the entire family so we had sole access to the pool and outdoor facilities. The staff were absolutely amazing and made our trip the best yet. They did so much to accommodate us in any way and made us all feel so welcome and special. The cleaners were spot on also, the rooms were clean to a good standard and the pool was very well kept! Breakfast in the mornings was also very good

Exceptional and excellent! Our stay exceeded our family expectations (including my kids)!

We booked the whole viila for ourselves with our own private swimming pool! Brenda, the host of the facility was very supportive and cooperative,. She was responsive and provided prompt feedback on all our queries. The villa is very modern but has a touch of "traditional Zanzibar" with beds and the bathroom very unique. The hostw as very quick to respond to our concerns e.g we had an issue with the "shut off" within the bathroom and it was rectified within 30 minutes! All the Daima villa staff were exceptional and provided very excellent and customer oriented service. The chef, the cleaners, the waiters, the guard were all available throughout the day and until 10:00pm for any requests. The villa provided "specialized menu" that was tailored to our family demands
