The staff was friendly and in good mood. Always attentive. The beach was kept clean, which seemed to be part of the 'clean village project', which is actively supported by Blue Reef. We had breakfast and dinner. We have chosen the healthy variety, which was good and rife in fruit. Dinner was excellent. From the concise menu we enjoyed the yellow tuna steak from freshly caught fish by staff (as can be expected in a 'fishing' lodge). We were very pleased by the huge beach that appeared at low tide.

Perhaps a more comfortable seat in the loft, but hey we are very much seniors.

Great location right on the beach, loved the bungalow, the three owners were on site and extremely helpful booking excursions, we caught a fish and the cook served it for our dinner and included guests ( it was a 30 lb Wahoo), staff friendly and always smiling, great pizza in fire oven,

I would suggest if you are staying in the bungalows-walk down the beach to the dive shop/ lodge location asap. You can book your excursions there to avoid confusion. I would suggest drinking water be replaced ( refilled)in room everyday , staff should wear name tags,

The team at the Blue Reef is EXCEPTIONAL and goes beyond to make your stay special and answer all questions. We made friends and felt truly at home. The location of the lodge at the beach is the best - although we wandered and checked out other locations we always deferred back to our spot which is amazing. Another huge call-out for all the food options (no matter if Blue Reef 1 or 2 with their Pizzas) and the cocktails - everything is absolutely delicious and amazing. Our time to leave was really tough and we felt super welcome throughout the stay - big thank you to everybody, we already miss it so much!

The room could offer more storage - especially when it's super humid, it can be tricky for your luggage.

We had a wonderful time at Blue Reef. The owners and staff are super accomodating and helpful. The daybed was the place to be for us and staff served us cocktails :) The apartment was spotless and spacious. I like the cleaning concept a lot - as the guest decides when cleaning is wanted. This saves human resources and is sustainable. The food was great (especially everything seafood and pizza). The organization of daytours (diving & Prison Island) was quick and easy.

There were some power blackouts (of course not their fault) where a generator would be helpful. I think the breakfast is ok but could be improved with more mix and match options and variety of juices.

This is a fantastic location in Jambiani, right on the beach and in proximity to so many other things. The staff was very friendly and responsive, always available to help us with anything we needed. We also loved their excursions, particularly going out on the wooden sailboat and going snorkeling - what a wonderful find! And their sister site has the best wood fired pizzas - highly recommended!

The people were really nice and welcoming, Wilimina, Paolo, Emmanuel, Thomas and Nikky were really helpful.

The wifi which was included in my booking was barely working in the main areas and not working at all in my room. The pictures marketed of the property are misleading if you ask me as they are not the same as per the property in reality.

I really enjoyed my stay at Blue Reef. The location of the bungalows was perfect and boasted breathtaking views of the ocean. The food and drinks served were delicious. All the staff, especially Juma and Paulo, were very welcoming and accommodating.

There was no clothing rack or hangers in the room for clothes.

Beautiful location (and quiet in Jambiani), the bungalows are hidden in the greenery! Private yet overlooking the sea. The staff are very welcoming and friendly! Definitely recommended!

The bathroom is a bit dark but not really disturbing (as you are outside a lot anyway)

Cute lodge to stay in especially if you're gonna be out and about during the day doing activities. Lovely breakfast in the morning and rooms are clean. Wilmina and the staff are all very friendly and kind. Thanks a lot!
