The attention to details, the rooms are so nice. The breakfast is amazing and the restaurant have the best food we tried on the island. We love the pool and the public areas.

Overall, the hotel is nice. The location is great, and the staff is incredibly friendly. We especially enjoyed the evening show.
We do have one complaint about the breakfast. The hotel's website advertises a breakfast buffet, but that’s not accurate. The only constant items available are bread and unlimited tea, water, and coffee. From the supposed buffet, you can choose one small dish, which is quite minimal for one person.

Sehr freundliches Personal.
Lage sehr nah am Strand, aber keine Liegen/Sonnenschirme von der Unterkunft.
Die Ausstattung ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Insbesondere das Badezimmer war für den Preis nicht in Ordnung.
Das inkl. Frühstück war okay, aber nicht besonders bzw. abwechslungsreich.
4.3
Die Lage der Unterkunft ist in direkter Standnähe (einmal über die Straße, nicht mal 1 min Fußweg). Das Frühstück hat eine gute Auswahl auch an vegetarischen Gerichten. Die Zimmer sind geräumig und klimatisiert. Das Personal war trotz ihrer sehr, sehr langen Arbeitszeiten freundlich. In der unmittelbaren Umgebung gibt es eine große Anzahl an Restaurants, Bars und Souvenirshops. Zudem kann man am Strand einige Aktivitäten wie Jet-Ski und Sonnenuntergangsfahrt im traditionellen Dhau buchen, sodass einem nicht langweilig wird.
Bitte bei der Buchung unbedingt darauf achten, sich Zimmer im neuen, renovierten Teil zu buchen, da diese wirklich schön und empfehlenswert sind.
Die Anlage im Außenbereich könnte erneuert werden, da z.B. unschöner Beton sichtbar ist, den man mit Sand aufschütten könnte. Es gibt kaum vegetarischer Gerichte für das Mittag- und Abendessen.
Viele Standverkäufer vor Ort, die teilweise im Minutentakt an der Liege stehen und Sachen loswerden wollen. Der Pool war leider auch nicht ganz so sauber, als wir dort waren.
Das Personal hat sehr lange Arbeitszeiten, teilweise von 6-23 Uhr und am nächsten Tag wieder von 6 Uhr an. Das ist nicht okay und hier sollten die Mitarbeitenden auf jeden Fall aufgestockt werden.

This place offered us a beatiful retreat. Sara at the reception is pure gold. This place is very clean and calm and all the people working there are very nice and helpful. Breakfast is very tasty and rich and the reastaurant area beautiful. I loved the garden and chill area.
The beach is just a few steps away.
4.3
Staff were very kind and helpful. Very close to the beach.
Bathroom no ventilation and it gets very humid inside. Just a small window. No small refrigerator in the room is the worst that can happen in Zanzibari weather. Very loud music coming from the streets at night but nothing the hotel can do, so not their fault. For breakfast not much options on the menu. Also small buffet with bread and some jelly and coffee.

Lidt for høje madpriser på hotellet.

Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, nieopodal plaży i różnych restauracji. Plażą można było dojść do innych obiektów, do najbliższych sklepów też bardzo blisko. Śniadania bardzo dobre, kawa, herbata bez limitu, sok na każdą osobę i owoce na stół. Muzuczka w tle bardzo fajna, basen czysty z leżakami.
Trochę drogie dania w restauracji, dlatego też słaby ruch, no ale cóż, nieopodal jest sporo innych fajnych miejsc z cenami odrobinę lepszymi i większym wyborem.

Das Zimmer entsprach unserem Stil, war geräumig und hatte genügend Ablageflächen. Das Frühstück war lecker, es gab auch vegane Optionen. Die Anlage ist gepflegt. Es war eine gut gelegene Unterkunft, um Nungwi kennen zu lernen
Der Essbereich/die Bar liegt direkt am Fussweg und nebenan gibt es viele Läden, was das ganze etwas unruhig macht. Was in ganz Zanzibar sehr teuer ist, ist die Kleider waschen zu lassen (einen Korb voll Wäsche kostet $30)
4.3
exactly as shown in the photos. A few steps from the beach (note the beach is public, landscaped by restaurants and vendors, but if you order something from their restaurant on the beach the sunbeds are free). Beautiful rooms, amazing stone beds, efficient AC, excellent breakfasts with fruit and smoothies, friendly staff, cheapest excursions (nothing to look for on the town), just opposite a lot of local shops, close (even very close) to restauras and still the best belong to Bandolina
this is more for those who like an informal, relaxed style. Everything is nice, but the mattresses on the loungers or the loungers themselves, chill-out area, the towels are years old. Sometimes, even often, very poor water pressure, it was difficult to wash your hair. 2 appartaments (16&17) border the kitchen, if you are sensitive to noises, you may unfortunately not like it. The property itself is not surrounded by a wall/fence and you have to be prepared for that. The pool is very small and you can smoke everywhere, even swimming in the pool.

Naprosto skvělý personál. Čisté pokoje. Kousek od moře. Dobré snídaně.

L’emplacement à 10 mètre de la plage
La piscine et ses alentours pour se détendre
Mais surtout, un grand merci à tout le staff pour leur disponibilité, leur réactivité et leur gentillesse 🤩!!!! MERCI POUR TOUT !

De locatie is perfect. Binnen 50 meter sta je op het strand en ook de winkeltjes en restaurants vind je binnen 1 minuut lopen.
Onze kamer was harstikke mooi en gerenoveerd. Wat tegen viel was het bed (zaten verschillende kuilen in het matras) en er zat op sommige dagen nauwelijks druk op de douche. Ik denk echter dat dit niet zozeer bij het hotel ligt maar meer een algemeen probleem is in Tanzania/Zanzibar.
4.3
Nosotros estuvimos en la habitación doble deluxe. Todo inmejorable. La piscina y la zonas comunes son excelentes. La recepcionista y los chicos de mantenimiento muy simpaticos y educados.
El hotel se encuentra a escasos metros de la playa.
4.3
Wir hatten eines der neuen Zimmer - sehr schön, hat sich definitiv gelohnt.
Kleine, aber schöne Anlage mit viel grün.
Swimmingpool
Nahe beim Meer, aber kein Meerblick
4.3
Kostenloses Trinkwasser, gute Frühstücksauswahl, Sitzsäcke sowie asiatisches Restaurant direkt am Strand mit Lagerfeuer abends, hübsche Anlage mit Poolhandtüchern
Unfreundliches Personal als wir ankamen und beim Abendessen, hunderte Moskitos im Zimmer als wir ankamen (zum Glück gabs ein Spray, mit dem wir alle töten konnten)
Nungwi generell: sehr aufdringliche und nervige „Masai“, die einem alles verkaufen wollen
4.3
Het was een prachtige locatie direct aan het strand. Het zwembad voor de deur incl gratis wifi. Bij het ontbijt was het mogelijk om een keuze te maken van de kaart. Het eten in de avond van het restaurant was fantastisch.
Als ik iets moet bedenken was het jammer dat de koffiemogelijkheden bij het ontbijt enkel instant koffie was. Het was fijn geweest als hier een keus gemaakt kon worden voor koffie/cappuccino etc. minor detail.
4.3
Excellent staff and facilities. Beautiful rooms. Amazing location in nungwi beach. Very clean and comfortable stay. Felt very safe as a solo traveler.
4.3
The hotel is right next to the beach and it owns an eatery at the beach so you can have a bean bag seat on the beach whenever you want. Despite the proximity to the beach, it is very quiet place as it is not near a main road. As majority of the places at the beach use shillings instead of USD, there is a safe and trustworthy money exchanger less than 200m from the hotel. There are also many places to eat nearby and small tour operators around the hotel. If you are a diver, there is a good dive operator (east african divers) just opposite the hotel entrance.
The hotel is prone to blackouts (although they are usually resolved quickly) but I was in a 2 hour blackout once.
4.3
The location is great, close to the beach . Right in the middle of the action. They have a Japanese restaurant which is next door which is good too. It’s a very casual laid back atmosphere so perfect if that’s the vibe your looking for. So expect music at night nearby, a little bit rough rustic / rough around the edges etc… but it you are easy going you’ll love the amorphere. They provide a lot of excursions too . Make sure to bring your own beach towel! They don’t provide any and do not let you bring the pool/ room ones
It has a lot of potential but there’s a lot of simple things they could improve .The showers have a really weak water pressure. The toiletries are very limited only one bottle ( unlabelled) in the shower , even a soap or shampoo etc would be a big plus. No toothbrush, or lotion . Also the bathroom /room in general didn’t have the best smell… which I see is a reoccurring critique from others. The towels definitely need replacing they often have holes and look really worn. The food is quite good but the breakfast ( which is free) is very basic and boring. In general we did enjoy our stay and it’s chill atmosphere but these things could make it much better!

The prime location with the beach just a few meters away couples with the lovely staff and a very interactive manager made my stay very memorable and worthwhile. I’d stay here again if I ever visit nungwi again
More thicker comforters could have been put on the bed
4.3
everything! the location, the rooms, the food! and the staff were the absolute best part of the whole trip. just a wonderful place.
nothing at all!
4.3
The information provided on Booking.com is incorrect - there is no free airport shuttle. The place does not have direct access to the beach, even though it's very very close.
4.3
It is very expensive for the price paid !
high price, restaurant is also very expensive, dar es salaam and other restaurants nearby are much cheaper..
4.3
The breakfast was OK, not my type though so I did not enjoy it that much. Since I did not have a car, I guess parking was also OK cause we were able to be dropped off and picked.
Nothing really, I loved my stay at the Lodge, it was really nice. Value for money
4.3
staff are great and rooms are clean and cosy
4.3
Beautiful gardens and very clean pool. The most beautiful accomodation around and lovely environment to relax in.
Staff were really lovely. Food at the restaurant was delicious, pricey but some of the freshest and best we had around. We found food in Nungwi expensive and not great so the restaurant was a good start.
There was no doona on the bed, only a sheet and thin small blanket that was more decorative and only covered your feet. It got cold in the night, so the option of a warmer blanket would have been welcome.
My room had no aircon remote either.
The accompdation isn't beachfront. It's about 20m from the front and doesn't have loungers on the beach despite my memory that it was booked as a beach front accomodation.
Sitting in the restaurant we saw the owner reprimand a staff member. This wasn't appropriate in front of patrons and also seemed unnecessarily harsh in
4.3
The rooms, pool and the fact that the beach is a few feet away
the surroundings but thats out of owner’s control

Very friendly, nice and helpfull staff, amazing location, with a beautiful beach and close to lot of point of interest. Beautiful resort, with appropriate size.

Great location, friendly and attentive staff, clean rooms with comfortable beds and AC
