Nungwi is better known for its pretty white sandy beaches and a place to sit back and relax, compared to the more bustling "stonetown" at the heart of the island. My friend and I decided to spend a couple of days unwinding here after our safari tours, and enjoyed our time here. Nice ocean-facing rooms with lounge chairs out front,... More

This is a decent budget lodge on the north tip of the island. It is particularly good for families and groups. There is 1 honeymoon cottage (Mahaba), 10 rooms in the Zanzibar House which are the next nicest rooms that have views of the ocean with a rooftop viewing deck, 12 standard cottages which are smaller and some face the...

This is a great spot if you are looking to just hang-out. We had a very pleasant trip and particularly enjoyed the excellent snorkeling. The rooms are comfortable, though small. Only a couple of down-sides. One was that the food was marginal and two, the beach is apparently seasonal. The sand comes in at certain times of the year and... More

I give this place a 3. I really liked some things about this place and I really hated other things about it. The first impression was amazing, you come in and walk through the gardens, past the pool and see the ocean and you're thinking this is going to be amazing. Then you open the door to your room and...

The hotel seems very nice BUT: no double beds in the standard rooms - not mentioned when one books a room (with booking.com) then when we got there and found out about it, the only "solution" the could offer was upgrading the room for an extre charge of 40$ a day. local animals just came in the room and a...

I saw some reviews about small rooms, but I didn't expect this. The bed was pushed against the wall, which means you have to jump on your patener if you need to use the rest room. No enough space in the wardrobe and no room to keep your bags open on the floor without tripping. Bathroom was also tiny. This... More

After reading some reviews here, we decided to book this hotel, also we've got a pretty good deal for 6 nights, with breakfast and dinner included, which is was what suit us best. The hotel is nice, clean and spacious rooms, but no TV and the bathroom needs a renovation. Facilities around are pretty good, nice swimming pool, massage room,... More

staying in zanzibar? want to stay away from the "big city" of stonetown? want to relax? this is the place for you. too shy to be in your bathing suit on the beach (esp for girls), they have a private pool for you. they are also right in front of the beach (which there is none during high tide), if...

We liked our stay here. Stayed for a weekend in January in what we thought was one of the self-contained apartments. We were told the apartment had 2 bedrooms (5 people). The main entrance was direct into the lounge/sitting room which had our 2 bedrooms coming off it but also 2 other doors. I asked where did those doors lead... More
