I stayed here back in Jan 2012 as part of a climb to Kilimanjaro. The good: - The hotel is right on the beach which was private and located in the remote nothernmost part of Zanzibar. - The hotel room I received was beachfront with a walkout right to the lounge chairs. - The Indian ocean is very warm and...

We came here last month during Easter with our kids. We spent wonderful time. The hotel is very safe with security on the beach, the hotel has a private beach and a public beach. Many boats sailing but we enjoyed a lot, so typical ! They have also a good swimming pool, great for kids with different levels of deepness.... More

I would not recommend this place. After a wonderful safari we came here looking for a place to stay. It was low season and so many of the rooms were open. Despite our interest in the place, we were treated so rudely by the front desk clerk that we ended up going to a different hotel. We were astonished by... More

Very nice resort. Nothing out of this world, but incredibly helpful staff and nice rooms. Dinner food was just average but have nice restaurants on the beach nearby. Be advised that it's about an hours drive from the airport, which costs about $50 or so. Overall a nice place, even in low season.

1st time to Zanzibar and loved the island! Booked the hotel online and didn't really know much about Nungwi Village except that it had beautiful beaches. When I arrived, the taxi driver said it was an hour away (from Stonetown) so I was a bit worried it was so far from the "city center". Once I arrived at the resort,... More

Got a good deal in this place, in fact cheapest I stayed in Zanzi the whole week. Place is a little out of the main drag so it's peaceful. Get a sea facing room, the view from the balcony is amazing at both high and low tide. They offer an all inclusive option for $65 pp/day. So can eat and... More

Stayed here at the end of our trip. FAR preferred Nungwi to Paje (where we'd been before for a few nights before). We'd booked a 'sea view room' through Expedia and it turned out that this was actually a pool view room (you could see the sea in distance), which was really disappointing. The staff were VERY helpful though and... More

Had a lovely relaxing 6 night stay after a busy 3 days trips and sightseeing in Stonetown - A lovely hotel with very attentive and friendly staff - Only complaint was that nobody could tell us if we could get an allowance against an A La carte meal if we didn't eat in the restaurant in the evening (bearing in...

Where to begin! Gastronomically the food was unbelievably bad for the pasta was not ''al dente'' but rather more ''al raw''! The desserts were honestly so, so dry that it made a piece of cardboard look moist. Upon check-in we had to wait for over two hours as our room wasn't ready and then we were informed that the room...
