The property was built in 2018 and features air-conditioned accommodation with a patio. The property is non-smoking and is set 100 metres from Jambiani Beach.

For those who likes short reviews: STOP LOOKING FOR ANOTHER PLACE! You won’t regret this decision! This is a perfect villa for family vacation or vacation with friends. My parents and I spent 3 weeks in Zanzibar. We were extremely lucky to choose this place to stay! We loved everything: the beautiful stylish villa, its owner Raphael who gave us endless support and care, Juma and Issa who work with Raphael, the location that is just steps away from the beach, restaurants and local little shops with water and fruits, our friendly neighbors in the village and Maasai warriors on the beach. We will come back! THE VILLA Comfortable and really beautiful, decorated with great taste. The photos do not make a justice - we were awed! There is a patio with comfy furniture that we constantly used. The house is spacious, airy and bright. It has everything you possibly need – good AC in every room, high ceilings and big windows, well separated rooms means that guests do not bother each other, kitchen with everything for cooking, awesome living room perfect for gatherings and board games. There is even a little work table. Bathrooms are huge w/ fast water heaters and quality new washer, iron and drying racks. All the beds are very comfy and equipped with mosquito nets RAHPAEL's TEAM In a nutshell: we were covered and had zero problems. Raphael is awesome and has big heart! He is adventurous, knowledgeable, truly hospitable, kind, honest. He was always available online to answer all questions big and small and helped us out in many situations which is so important for a foreigner without Swahili. Issa, the young house keeper, leaves next to the villa and invisible, but appears magically and solves everything in house in a heartbeat. Juma drove us around multiple times and organized a great tour in Stone Town and Jozani. He is awesome driver and storyteller! Ask him about history, local spices and remedies

    Cozy and quiet place which is run by a lovely family. Nice breakfast, good location. Very very friendly staff and the food from the own restaurant is a must! :-) There is also a watchman at night and hot shower, what i definitely like. I've stayed in the cozy bungalow but for some personal reasons I asked to change the room. Bianca, the owner, was super friendly and helpful, so I was able to change into another room uncomplicated. All in all a pleasant stay ! I'll come back

    Really cosy and confortable place with a great bar. We had a wonderful and peaceful break and we were made to feel home away from home during our stay at Driftwood Lodge by our hosts Shona and Ismail, both so very keen to make your stay fautless and memorable.

    We fell in love with Kimte Beach Lodge and the staff :) it’s organized by some great guys from the area. Everyone was so nice, welcoming and helpful. It was the perfect place to start our journey in Zanzibar. You have a great view on the ocean with cozy loungers, a cool bar and it’s really quiet and not so touristic. They helped organizing dolphin tours and everything we needed. Nearby we rented some bikes and drove to Paje, which was also great. Go there!! ;) We were so sad to leave !!!

    We loved everything (location, service, atmosphere...). Driftwood Beach Lodge is a little piece of paradise and we had an amazing time thanks to Kerry, Brady and the wonderful Driftwood team. The room was nice, the food simple but good and the place generally speaking is very well maintained. During low tides, after an amazing walk on the beach of Jambiani, you can enjoy the pool which has an incredible view. We really felt at home in this small cosy relaxing lodge. It was hard to leave!
