Absolutely one of the best hostel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcome. Everyone is friendly, helpful and always smiling. The atmosphere is amazing, very social and perfect for meeting people from all over the world. The pool area is beautiful and super clean, a great place to relax during the day or hang out in the evening. Rooms are spotless, beds are comfortable and everything is well taken care of. You can really feel the attention to detail. Food and drinks were also great and the common areas have a really good vibe. It’s the kind of place where you plan to stay a couple of nights and end up extending your stay. Highly recommended. If you are in Zanzibar, you should definitely stay here.

The hotel stay was really lovely, the breakfast was nice buffet style with fruit, pancakes and you can have eggs requested.. just no meat in the breakfast but you can eat enough to start the day. Not a complicated place to stay but if you do not have a rented car it is a bit of a walk to the restaurants and beach. The room was super clean and comfortable, I really would recommend this hotel in Nungwi

The hotel is perfect! Would 100% recommend staying here. The rooms and facilities are fantastic - the pool area is brilliant too and has shaded areas. It is in the best location too so you can walk to all the restaurants and bars. It is also about a 2 minute walk to the beach, which is ideal for trips as well. The host is lovely and really looks after you. The breakfast is fantastic - the fruit is so fresh! We also ate lunch here a few times, and the food was fantastic, especially the shrimp/octopus curry.

The facility was in the best location for whole Zanzibar. The tide effect is at minimum at Nungwi which definitely increases the time that you can spend in the water.

Perfect location near the beach but in the village also which gives a nice local flare to the stay. Room was fantastic. Zuzana and Baraka go above and beyond to make sure your stay is comfortable and all your needs are met. Beds were a little hard but that is just personal preference. Brilliant breakfast with fresh fruit, local breads and Zuzana makes an amazing passionfruit jam that is literally to die for. Close to a local restaurant with delicious food. Honestly would recommend this place to stay in Nungwi 150%
