Long before LITTLE POMPEJI had a name, the idea already existed – a small, personal house for travelers. Not an anonymous hotel, but a place that connects, that lets you breathe. Karin and I, Maurizio, have carried this wish with us for over two decades.

 

In 2020, fate led us to Jambiani. In the midst of the pandemic, in the midst of silence. We found an unfinished building, a shell of a structure – and immediately saw its potential. The name was obvious – LITTLE POMPEJI!

 

 

"Some thought we were crazy & maybe we were - but Zanzibar has a magic that doesn't let you go so easily!"

 

 

Today we welcome couples, groups, and friends seeking tranquility, not hustle and bustle. Adults who appreciate quality and prefer authenticity to mere scenery. What we offer didn't arise from a business plan – but from what we ourselves missed as travelers.

 

 

Why LITTLE POMPEII?

 

🏠 Owner-operated – not a corporation, not a franchise. We're local – and there for you personally!
