Philosophy
The Blue Oyster Hotel is a small family-run hotel with a personal atmosphere. Our attentive staff will make your stay feel like a home away from home. The African way of life combined with Western standards creates the perfect setting to spend a unique vacation. Responsible tourism has a high importance for our daily business. We do not offer facilities such as a pool or air conditioning, as we are trying to reduce the environmental, social and economic impact that is caused by tourism. With this concept in mind, we are happy to welcome many guests each year.
History
The German owner Klaus Beiser opened the hotel on December 26, 1999. Ever since this day, we have been constantly improving our hotel to offer the best services and comfort possible. Now, managed in the second generation by a team of highly motivated employees mostly made up of locals from the surrounding village of Jambiani or the island of Zanzibar, the hotel provides an unforgettable holiday experience. We are currently offering 18 rooms, either classic sea view rooms with stunning views of the Indian Ocean or budget-option garden view rooms.
