Maisha was a beautiful hotel with friendly and kind staff. The breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. The beach bar had great food and drinks and we ate there every night. Would definitely stay here again.

Well trained and friendly staff, great management, friendly atmosphere.
The two pool and the garden are amazing, tasty fresh breakfast.
Comfortable room, hot tube in the terrace is the best idea in the whole island.
Small hotel but way better than any big resorts in the island

We had an amazing stay at Aluna. It's a perfect location if you're looking for somewhere a bit quieter and more relaxing in Nungwi, but still very walkable along the beach to bars and restaurants. The room was a great size, comfortable and good air conditioning, and the food at both the hotel restaurant and the beach club was exceptional. Plus the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming too. Highly recommend staying here!

Aluna is a beautiful property surrounded by lush tropical plants and trees. With 2 pools and ample sunbeds it was a very relaxing stay for us. Our lodge type room was lovely but we would have liked a fridge in the room. The beach was just a short walk away but the road outside the hotel that lead to the beach bar could have been better with some lighting. The breakfast was very nice but we thought the days when it was buffet style rather than a la carte was a much better idea. We had a massage during our stay which was very good and great value for money. All the staff were excellent and so helpful. We would definitely recommend Aluna.

The place is so peaceful and so beautiful.
The restaurant on the beach was clearly one of the best tried in Zanzibar.
Special mention for the staff, that was the kindest people we meet.
Everyone was so nice.
I totally recommend the hotel !

I loved my stay at Aluna Nungwi. The staff was so helpful, welcoming and amazing. The room and pool was perfect for relaxing. The food was great- both at the restaurant at the hotel and the one on the beach. Just be aware the beach near the hotel isn’t the best but you can arrange a Tuk tuk to Nungwi. For me I loved just hanging by the pool and getting massages (which were the best!)

Terrible experience. Had booked a 2 night stay ans changed it to 1 night because of how bad it was.
First they got our booking wrong and then made us run around to sort it out, with not a single care in the world. Secondly, there was no power for over 12 hours!
We were promised a refund and a discount for the first night- However we were charged the full initial amount, for an experience that wasn’t worth even half the price. Extremely disappointed.

The accommodation is excellent, if you want something cozy and private.
The conditions were very good, if you take into account the location. There were some small flaws here and there, but they were all minor.
The biggest downsite is the fact that it's not on the beach but 2 minutes away from one. For us this was more than acceptable

Slightly disappointing and bad location. Run by a pleasant western woman but a lot of the local staff are a bit off and seem disinterested.

The property was beautiful, amenities were great, everyone was friendly and helpful.
The only negative thing was the cost of meals and drinks being in USD and more expensive than other places in the area.

Overall the resort is lovely. All staff are just fabulous and the grounds are very well kept. The room was very spacious. The only reason for 4 stars was the power issue. I know it wasn’t the fault of the resort but we had no power at night not even to run the fan or any lights (better not have to use the toilet). In addition, the AC didn’t work so it was just 33 degree damp air with no movement.
Still the staff were fabulous and if they can get the power sorted out it would be a full 5 stars!
