    I had an absolutely amazing experience at New Blue Waves. The location is like paradise, with my own beachfront bungalow and stunning views of the Indian Ocean. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always making sure I had everything I needed. The breakfast was delicious, and the basic bungalows were exactly what I expected. This is not your typical tourist hotel, but a peaceful retreat where you can relax with your feet in the sand. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, picturesque getaway.

    Everything was fantastic! 😊

    We had an incredible and unforgettable stay at this hotel. The bungalows were clean and comfortable, equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation - from the cozy bed and mosquito net to the spacious bathroom. The hotel area, including our bungalow, was cleaned daily and we were provided with fresh towels each day. The breakfast was fresh, healthy, and varied, ensuring a great start to our day. The wifi connection was fast and reliable. The hotel's location was perfect, with direct access to the beautiful white sandy beach just steps away. We also enjoyed the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere of the area. The staff members were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable, providing helpful guidance both before and during our trip. We are already planning our return visit and sending warm greetings to the team.

    Nothing, no complaints at all.

    Great location right on the beach, with beautiful surroundings and a peaceful atmosphere. The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the manager. The hotel offered authentic and satisfactory accommodation.

    The price was too high for what was offered. The cleanliness of the hotel was not up to standard, with dirty rooms and facilities.

    Stunning beaches, good facilities, and beautiful sunrises. Bungalows are located in front of the beach, allowing for easy access to the sea. Traditional bungalows with a pleasant breeze, no need for air conditioning. Staff organized tours and transportation with ease.

    The beachfront location was like paradise, with our own banda just steps away from the ocean. The simplicity of the bungalows didn't bother us because the breathtaking setting more than made up for it. The staff at the hotel were incredibly helpful, ensuring we got the best prices for activities and taxis, and taking care of all the arrangements for us. The breakfast was a treat, and we enjoyed the friendly atmosphere and authentic care provided by the staff. Thanks to Miki, Mussa, and Ahmed for making our stay truly special.

    Nothing bad to say. 🌴

    The triple room at The New Blue Waves Hotel was simply amazing. I loved the cozy seating area and private entrance, which made me feel right at home. The free WiFi was a bonus, allowing me to stay connected during my stay. And let's not forget the bathrooms with showers and complimentary toiletries - a refreshing start to each day!

    I personally found the terrace to be a bit lacking, but hey, that's just my subjective opinion. Others might still enjoy having a relaxing space to unwind and catch some fresh air.

    The beachfront location of New Blue Waves was absolutely breathtaking. We loved stepping directly onto the sandy beach from our bungalow. The staff were welcoming and accommodating, especially Mussa and Ahmed. The simple yet clean rooms were exactly what we expected. The breakfast spread was amazing, with a variety of delicious fruits, pancakes, eggs, and toast. The restaurant served tasty meals at a reasonable price. Despite a few minor inconveniences like a delayed transport and low shower pressure, our overall experience was fantastic. We will definitely recommend this hidden treasure to others looking for a peaceful beach getaway.

    The New Blue Waves Hotel is situated just right in front of the very quiet beach of Jambiani, offering a stunning ocean view. The bungalows are simple but functional, cleaned daily, and equipped with basic amenities like a comfortable bed and mosquito net. The breakfast is fresh and served with a variety of fruits, pancakes, eggs, and toast. Additionally, the staff is friendly and helpful in arranging transport and activities.

    The taxi drivers in the area are not familiar with the hotel's location, making it difficult to find.
