Our 12 rooms are located in two buildings. All rooms have sea view and are tastefully decorated and equipped with East African art and furniture built from eco-friendly local materials. The six rooms on the ground floor have bathrooms and a private balcony. The six second floor suites are all double-storey with a spacious living room, bathroom and balcony on the first level, and with a king-size futon bed with mosquito net under the thatched roof. For families, additional beds can be placed on the first level. All rooms have ceiling fans.
Casa del Mar has its own emergency generator, as electricity blackouts are not unusual in Zanzibar. Furthermore, we have invested in a 60,000 liters underground freshwater tank with three powerful water pumps, providing the rooms with hot and cold water.
Our circular-shaped open restaurant is located directly on the beach. In the wider Jambiani area we have gained an excellent reputation for our traditional Zanzibari, Mediterranean and international dishes. Even many guests of other hotels regularly enjoy our home made fresh-caught fish, meats, vegetarian dishes and exotic desserts at reasonable prices.
Why not try a fresh dish of Indian Ocean fish such as king fish, tuna, white snapper, octopus or some prawns? Or a beaf steak with tasty sauces? For a snack our kitchen team recommends some of our selection of "Sambusa" pastries or a light salads. Our fresh fruit juices are a delicious refreshment throughout the day.
In the early morning, when you can have your breakfast on the terrace, the sunlight awakes you with its sparkles on the mellow surface of the Indian Ocean. And at night, the moonlight reflects on the gentle waves, while the palm trees are suavely sweeping in a mild, tropical breeze - at the Casa del Mar you will have a truly magical time and some excellent culinary experiences!

| Jambiani, where our hotel is located, is a charming village on the East Coast of Zanzibar. Its friendly people are primarily living from fishing, growing seaweed and increasingly from tourism. The village however has still kept the spirit of a remote East African coastal village and you won't find many tourists here. A unique feature of Jambiani is that it is a very long village - following the road along the coastline for almost 16 kilometres! Close to the hotel you have the chance to rent some bicycles and explore the village on your own, or you can also join the village chief on a tour through the village.
When you do the tour with the village chief you can enter some private houses and see how the locals use the coconut tree for instance to make ropes from coconut fibres. You can also learn how they thatch their roofs, how they plant kasava or bake their bread. Another interesting place to see is the village kindergarten.
A highlight of the tour is to visit a seaweed farm. Seaweed is planted by women who dry the plants in order to sell them to a factory which makes toothpaste. When you rent a bicycle, it is also possible during low tide to drive on the hard sand along the whole East coast of Zanzibar! |
