Staff were very pleasant.
Wifi good.
Room perfectly pleasant.
I knew this was a budget accomodation. But some little issues that could make the experience better.
I was offered and asked for breakfast at 7h30 which suited me as I was going diving at 8h00. No-one appeared until 7h55.
Electric issues with the room lights and plugs only resolved after I asked twice.
Location was quiet which is what I wanted but it was a bit of a muddy backroad to get to the beach.

Прекрасный завтрак (яичница, блин, фрукты, сок, чай-кофе), прекрасная отзывчивость по всем вопросам. Организовали сафари, трансферы, обмен валюты.
Рядом лучший пляж Занзибара (5 мин пешком).
Немного не понравился матрас на кровати, очень мягкий, я проваливался. Но это мелочи.

Great shower with lots of hot water as long as nobody else tries to shower in the building 😁 Food in the restaurant for lunch was well priced and tasty.
Very small room with two beds squeezed together which is not great for a couple. No shampoo provided. The worst breakfast we had in Zanzibar. They couldn't have given less food. Terrible considering they run the restaurant...it's a bad advert for the restaurant.

Good location, clean room and good pressure in the shower.
21% hidden fee.
The glass front of the room disturbs privacy at night. Lights on, inside of the room is visible for people from outside at night.

We didn't see any mosquitoes in the room, the cleaning staff really took care of it with mosquito spray. The workers in the restaurant and cleaning staff were nice and friendly.
The breakfast could be more variable, but it was sufficient. You could choose the kind of eggs you want, they serve caffe, fruits, pancakes and fresh fruit juice. Otherwise we cannot say anything negative about the place.

Perfect place to stay, clean, quiet, nice food, have a fridge into the room, close to the beach, market and friendly staff.
nothing, was perfect
4.0
Lovely staff, very welcoming and friendly. The restaurant isn't the nicest place to sit but the guys knocked it out the park. Best food I had on my travels around Zanzibar. Rooms are a good size, basic, but well presented. Location is good, as 1-2min from the beach, 30secs to a supermarket.
If a bit of decor was spent on the restaurant area, you guys would have one of the best places to eat in Nungwi as your food is amazing.

Strong recommend! Hotel is located 2 minutes from the beach and 2 minutes from place with restaurants and cafe. Restaurant in the hotel is amazing, cheap and delicious. Personel is extremly kind and helpful. Breakfast; every day one omlette to choose from, plate of fruits, fresh juice and coffee/tee. There is no need to exchange money or buy sim card on the airport, as you can do it in the hotel with better price. Rooms are nice (cleaned every day if you need). Thank you for the amazing stay!

The owner helped to find a substitution for us after the overbooking of our room. It was also possible to have the breakfast at their accomondation.
When we arrived, there was no free room becouse of an overbooking. It was annoying to wait and not to know where we can stay the night.
For the substitute accommodation the two hosts wanted more money, but we were able to find a compromise.

We really enjoyed our stay in Kuvilingi. The place was very nice and clean, the staff very helpful and friendly ... and we had the best breakfast which is a bonus. The location is good as its not far from the beach and most importantly its far enough to a noisy clubs in Nungwi - so you can enjoy peace and quiet. We cannot say anything about the restaurant as it was going trough renovations... but based on breakfast we think is very good.
