The location was perfect. We were just a few steps away form the Jambiani beach. We had several restaurants around, on the beach and in the village. We came with a rental car and could easily park. I enjoyed the proximity with local life, far from the big beach resorts. Amka House offers a great comfort with a local life feeling. I thank deeply the manager for her good advice about visits and nice discussion about local life. Also the breakfast was great with a plate of local fresh fruits, a fresh fruit juice, pancakes and omelet.

This place is an absolute paradise! The fact that hotel is small, clean and full of people who really enjoys their work makes you feel like home. Alex was not only very helpful but also so kind and he always smiles to us! We felt there not like customers but rather like a part of family. Food is really tasty and the view there is incredible too! Everything was perfect.

The accommodation is 200 m away from the beach and numerous restaurants and beach bars. Trevor was an amazing host and took his time to show me around Zanzibar and teach me some of the local lingo. I really enjoyed my stay at Gecko house.
