Cet hôtel est un havre de paix, en bord de mer. La nourriture y est très bonne. Très bon rapport qualité-prix.
Un peu long pour être servi à table mais rien de grave

We loved our stay at Teddys. We stayed in the dorm rooms. The location is great and the staff are so nice and chatty:) We loved hanging out by the bar or pool. Can definitely recommend!

The location, look and vibe were just amazing. I stayed a week longer than I planned. So friendly to meet other great people or just completely relax.
It got VERY hot in the dorms at night which made it difficult to sleep.

kaunis ympäristö ja hotellialue, juuri kuin kuvissa, hyvä sijainti, hyvä ranta, juomavettä sai ilmaiseksi, snorkkelia sai lainaan ilmaiseksi, antoi huoneen aiemmin kun meillä oli aikainen lento
wifi oli vain ravintolassa, huone oli hieman kulunut ja kuuma, rantakaupustelijat häiritsivät jos kävi lähelläkään rantaa

Great common area, nice location, friendly staff, amazing food!
The room bathroom could be a bit better. No shampoo, no bodywash. Towels were not dry.

Amazing location, right on the beach. The atmosphere is relaxing and chilled. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back for a longer trip.
The dorms could use more/bigger fans as it is extremely hot at night and difficult to sleep.

Lugar lindo e relaxante com uma praia paradisíaca. Quartos ok, com tudo o que é necessário.
Sentimos um pouco pressão dos funcionários para que tudo fosse reservado pelo hotel, taxis, tours, etc.

The people at New Teddy's were extremely welcoming and helpful with everything! The vibe is very positive and they have little events that they organize every now and then (e.g. Wednesday barbecues). The pool and the whole outside area is extremely nice to hang out and just relax <3
Be aware that the wifi does not reach into the rooms but can only be used at the bar, restaurant and pool.

Tout était génial ! Le service, la localisation, la plage, la grande piscine et les petits matelas au calme disposés un peu partout pour se détendre. Les cappuccino et cocktails sont très bons, tout comme les plats. Le staff est toujours à 200% motivé pour vous servir et vous aider avec le sourire et les massages sont superbes aussi ! On vous recommande

Sympatyczny personel. Ogólnie miejsce bardzo klimatyczne- nie jest to typowy hotel, można się tu poczuć jak w domu. Piękny widok na plażę i wodę. Śniadania smaczne, dania z karty menu również. Chętnie wrócilibyśmy ponownie.
Okna nie były dosyć szczelne, słychać było jakieś odgłosy zwierząt (chyba) z zewnątrz. Czuć było lekki niepokój, przez pierwszy dzień pół nocy nieprzespanej ale myślę, że to kwestia przyzwyczajenia.

It was a true Zanzibar coastal experience being able to stay in a boutique villa, friendly welcoming staff, with white sandy beach as soon as you drive into the accomodation
Nothing worth mentioning, experience was above expectation

A little gem in Jambiani. I traveled around Tanzania for 3 weeks and this is for sure the best hostel I stayed in! Great atmosphere and very welcoming people in the bar and management. Very sad that I only had one night to spend at this beautiful place. The breakfast was great, but best of all was the people there. Lots of sunbeds, hammocks and little areas where you can sit and relax. Located directly at the beach.
Everything was great!

Clean, great staff, management ready to listen and help. Amazing beach front for the perfect sunrise and walk.
The meals, served timely but not to the expected standards. Catch of the day turned out to be the best.

I arrived late at night with my friend and the staff was very welcoming. We got a welcome drink on arrival ❤️ Really loved the room. It was clean and cozy. The best part was the staff and the amazing location.

Fantastic relaxed place to stay. Great pool and brilliant yoga teacher. Loved being able to do regular classes and get Thai yoga massage. Lots of kids. It was my kids favourite place we stayed. They loved the food. Staff very helpful and got good advice about places to go out to eat at and where to see live music.
Too windy and waves too big to swim in the ocean but pool was great alternative.

The staff were so kind, and the concierge who organizes day trips was so helpful. They are honest with their recommendations of trips and drivers, and made us feel very safe. Also, the place is right by the beach and is just beautiful.
This is being picky, but the customer service is just not what we are used to. The workers make mistakes and the service is slow, but they are always doing their best and so kind through the process. It was annoying at the beginning, but we definitely got used to it and really appreciated the place.

Originally, I planned to travel the island for a week. In the end, I spent the full 7 days only at New Teddys, because the hostel offered everything I needed: a paradisiacal beach, a great accommodation with a fantastic pool and great food and drinks. Although the visitors are mixed (backpackers, families, couples), the combination harmonizes wonderfully. I immediately made friends as a solo traveler, with whom I made various excursions that we could book through the New Teddys. The New Teddys was one of the best places I've ever stayed at and I would recommend it at any time.
Nothing!

I planned to stay for only 2 days and ended up staying an entire week! Amazing location with beautiful clear blue waters, a great pool, and plenty of good places to sit and relax. The staff is super friendly and the restaurant serves really good food (plus a good breakfast).
The dorms are pretty hot because there is no A/C, and while there are plugs, you can't charge your phone at night because of the mosquito nets.

Very friendly staff, always ready to help with advice and organization of outdoor activities. Great food. The room was clean and big. The surroundings of the pool are perfectly arranged for relaxing or socializing.

Super relaxed, well integrated with environment, good value for money, and beach life at its best!
Nothing, except that the tides can be tricky when learning to kite surf…. But… this is related to the beach location, not the property!

Best choice for relaxation and chilling. Food was exceptional, didn't need to buy any food from outside. They have very nice beachfront seatings so you will not need to leave the place except maybe for trips. staff were very nice and helpful,
Special thanks to Nuru, Adam, Mohamed and Amos.
Highly recommended

Staff was friendly and kind.
The place is nice and the breakfast too.
Food in general are a good value for money. Huge quantity.
There is a bad smell in the bathroom and toilet I guess it's a sewer issue.

The staff were all phenomenal. The hostel itself is stunning with great seating areas and views of the ocean. Quiet and safe place to stay. Great opportunity to meet other solo travellers. Highly recommend yoga classes on site with Lara, as well as booking surfing lessons through Aquaholics, which is also located directly on the hostel grounds. Food was excellent. Will definitely be back and have already recommended it to others!

New Teddys met my expectations 100%! It's a nice place with local vibes, perfect for a family stay. The food is tasty, the staff is great and friendly. The pool is not crowded, and sunbeds are always available. The airport transfer was smooth. Reasonable price for everything we get.
Some insects in the room, but the insect repellent completely killed them (provided by the owner).

The staff at the bar were friendly and helpful.
The room itself did not have a fridge or any other amenities, bed mattress is laid on concrete so there isn't some additional space to keep bags. Showers are soo basic and bathroom is just an open room with a toilet and sink. Lots of ants and bugs in the room.

New Teddy's is a beautiful place! The pool is great, the staff is nice and helpful. Great food a la carte and yummy daily specials! The mix of single backpackers, couples and family makes it really interesting and diverse.
Nothing to complain about, all good. And if there is a problem, the owner or the staff will help you.
