Flame Tree Cottages is very nice and peaceful place. It has beautiful dense gardens, which give you best time to relax. As regards the location it was at the end of the Nungwi public area with bars, so Flame Tree was very quiet place with not long walk to any Nunwgi bars. The owners are very nice and reply to... More

I have stayed at the Flame Tree Cottages for 9 days on the beggining of January 2012. The personal was very lazy. The staff and the management of the Flame Tree Cottages – very poor! The location is very good near the beaches bars area. The breakfast was poor (eggs, eggs and eggs), except all the fresh fruits and juice.... More

Whilst we didn't stay here, our party preferred to use the facilities here rather than our own hotel. The restaurant was lovely with excellent fresh food and plenty of variety served each night and good honest prices for the trips and other facilities. We were never disappointed and it put our much more expensive nearby hotel to shame in terms... More

I have stayed at the Flame Tree Cottages twice, first in November 2009 and then again in June 2010. The service is very personal and excellent, the enviroment is friendly, the staff is well trained and the place is very well kept. Calm, private, wonderful and I enjoyed every minute. More

I stayed three nights at the flame tree in frangipani cottage. As a solo female traveler this was more than enough. The room was huge. There are two single beds pushed together so not ideal for a couple. There was a safe and huge sitting room. While this was furthest from the water, it's not a terrible walk. I didn't... More

We stayed five nights at Flame Tree. I thought the accommodation was really good, perhaps the only improvements I would suggest would be a safe in the bungalow (but must say there was a safe available in the owner's house) and possibly a suitcase stand would have been nice. Having breakfast on your own verandah was so laid back. Food... More

We were at the Flame Tree in May of 2010. My daughter has forgotten her beloved bear that she sleeps with at another hotel in Stone Town, Zanzibar. Seif ( the Flame Tree owner) picked it up for us while he was in Zanzibar town for business. We stayed at the Flame Tree in low season so the staff were... More

My friend and I spent 5 nights in the Flame Tree Cottages and I cannot fault anything here! The staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was great, the setting fantastic, even with the odd power cut! I cannot believe anyone that would complain about this wonderful place, I would suggest they stay in a Hilton Hotel in London... More

I was disappointed with my stay here despite it being adequate and the staff were very friendly the cottages are very expensive for what they are. The door got stuck in our room and a railing in the bathroom fell down and there was an overall feel that the place was falling apart and could do with a renovation. It... More
