My boyfriend and I stayed at the guesthouse in December and it was just perfect for us. Amenities were basic but we're Peace Corps volunteers - practical travelers on a budget - and it was more than enough for us. The rooms were clean and spacious and the property is located less than a minute away from the beach. The... More

As a Family we travelled a month through Tanzania and stayed at the end in Fairytale Villa a whole week. We had a beautiful time in this gorgeous beach, the hospitality at Fairytale was amazing. Simple, clean, and with Chagua as a host nothing can go wrong. We immediately feel like being at home. Fairytale is definitively the please to... More

We found Fairytale Villa after a bit of internet searching and recommendations from friends that we look for something off the usual tourist path. It was a great decision. Tucked away from the main tourist areas, Fairytale villa sits 30 meters from the warm blue waters of Zanzibar Island. The rooms are very clean, spacious and comfortable. The villa also... More

We stayed at Fairytale Villa in Jambiani for a few months. The place is great: Big spacious rooms, fully equipped kitchen, immaculate toilets. But the most important is Chagua, the local manager, who is the most positive, helpful, resourceful, "hakuna matata" guy we’ve ever met. The villa is just 30 meters from the beautiful beach, and although it is not... More

Fairytale Villa is very close to the beautiful beach and is a delightful and relaxing place to stay with its own very pretty garden. Rooms are spacious and light with efficient electric fans and bathroom is huge. The use of the kitchen was an added bonus, although there are plenty of places to eat in the village. More

There are many different, little spots along the beach in which to stay at in Jambiani. I picked Fairytale online before arriving so I was a bit bummed to realize that I could have negotiated for cheaper lodging (as it was an immensely slow week for tourists) with the beach right outside my window. But having said that, the price... More
