Vacation rentals in Mahonda

It was super lovely staying at this amazing Villa, my friends and I had the best time. Villa was super clean, well decorated and comfortable. Lesley was very hospitable, supportive and responsive, our stay was lovely. I’d definitely recommend this place and would go again the next time I’m in Zanzibar.

It was a wonderful stay in Zanzibar. The house was big, comfortable, and clean. It is located on the main road of Paje, so everything is very close, especially the beach. Hiba was amazing—very helpful, and we truly loved her. The house has all the amenities one might need. We specifically stayed for over 20 days and never regretted it for a moment. I highly recommend it. When we visit the island again, we will definitely stay here.

Thank you to Ina and her team for this warm welcome and their concern to take care of our well-being. It was a magnificent stay, so peaceful in this superb bay. I highly recommend

It was the most beautiful 12 days of our lives to spend here. The villa was exactly as pictured, very kind to us and always at our disposal! The beach and shops were close by on foot, we had everything we needed nearby! There is also a taxi station at the end of the street where we found a once-in-a-lifetime friend. The mosquito net and the air conditioning helped us a lot in nearly 2 weeks. In summary, everything was perfect, if we return to Zanzibar, there is no question that we will come back at the same time! Thank you!

Dolphin House is a truly unique place and experience. The position directly on the beach is priceless - I could never get sick of the view! There's a good balance of home comforts and the privacy of the house with still feeling connected with the outside, the community and just generally being in Zanzibar. We spent all of our time in the outside space - rotating between the sofas, the loungers on the beach, the table and the pool. It's incredibly well thought out and comfy! Rudy and his local team were always on hand. The chefs, in particular, are exceptional - while you are handy for plenty of restaurants and bars, we enjoyed every breakfast and most of our dinners at the villa. When you have the best spot on the beach, there was very little reason to leave!

Great communication with host, beautiful home close to a lot of restaurants, to the beach and friendly neighbourhood. House has a lovely view and was cosy me and the other girls defo recommend and enjoyed

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. We were greeted, shown where something, even a small treat (snacks and watermelon). Everything worked properly, and electricity, and water, and the Internet. There was plenty of kitchen utensils, even a blender. Very nice Maasai who are on duty 24/7. There's a grill outside, but we didn't use it. There is a cat with a kitten on the property, for us it was a very nice bonus. The cabin itself is bug free, etc. And just your area around. There is a supermarket nearby, but it takes 20 minutes to walk to the beach, but the beach itself is insanely beautiful. It is also necessary to take into account that the curtains that close the glass do not hide everything 100%, so you are always a little, but you can be seen from the outside.

Banu was a wonderful host! The place is absolutely dreamy—perfectly located in Kiwengwa, about an hour from Stone Town. We loved how peaceful and quiet the area was, while still being close enough to drive to other spots in Zanzibar. The home is ideal for a trip with family or friends—spotlessly clean and fully equipped with all the amenities you could need. Banu went above and beyond by providing large quantities of bottled water and laundry detergent, and she was super responsive and helpful with any additional resources we needed. I would definitely come back—I'm already missing it!

Honestly amazing place. Electricity is a serious problem here in TZ. Having been here for 2 months and stayed in so many places. The back up generator here is a bonus!! The people are lovely they help with any questions you have. The villas are very spacious and have everything you need. The location is amazing as it’s central to everything. Ordering food whatever time is easy too!! And they come and clean the room whenever you want. And of course the pool is a bonus!!
