About

New Teddy’s on the Beach is a resort-hostel. Its location is unique - right at the turquoise blue Indian Ocean and the views will definitely take your breath away. Beaches are stunning and sitting in one of our swings at New Teddy’s on the beach is one of the best things to do, we think. We are offering you enough space for privacy and relaxing as well as parties, restaurants, bars and shops nearby, whatever you feel like.
We are located in a beautiful picturesque village at the South East Coast of Zanzibar called Jambiani. When stepping out on the village road you are in the middle of local shops, kids playing, men chatting and women selling different products. You can witness pure and real African life in a very friendly and interested African world.
Walking distance from Paje is around 1,5 hours.
We offer different kind of accommodation for all kind of traveler groups. We are a perfect place for backpackers with loads of space and fair prices and a great location in the middle of the village. We are super social, but not a party place. So, we are also a great match for everyone else, including easy going and open-minded families. Therefore, we have 2 big dormitory rooms with sand floor and shared bathroom. And we have bungalows for 2, 3, 4 and even 5 people. These rooms have en-suite bathrooms and most of them air condition.
The bar and restaurant is the place to chat and meet other travelers. We have plenty of chilling choices - hammocks, swings, beds. Whatever you need. You can play, use our strong WIFI in the public are or try walking the slackline. Our 18-meter pool will refresh you in the low tide times of the beautiful ocean and you will find the most beautiful products in our shop.
The best about us is the safety and care coming from a great, motivated and always smiling team.
Our local tour desk at the premises will help you getting the best out of your visit!

Summary of traveller reviews

New Teddy's on the Beach in Zanzibar offers a relaxing resort-like atmosphere right on the sand. Guests praise the incredibly friendly and helpful staff, beautiful beachfront location, and good food. It's ideal for travellers seeking a peaceful escape, though some note it's less social than typical hostels and can be hot in rooms.

Hands down the best place you'll find in Zanzibar. Only inconvenient is it's more family oriented than solo backpackers

This place is the best! Amazing staff and the resort/hostel was so nice. I would highly recommend staying here instead of directly in the middle of Paje. You are still at a good location for access to fun spots but it’s nice to get away from the vendors and chaos of Paje. Seriously I would think of this place as more of a resort than a hostel. Great bang for the buck
