Beautiful location, but fairly isolated from restaurants and shops.

Setting peaceful with good views. We had the opportunity to order in a meal for delivery on the first evening from a restaurant, connected to Chiara, (though other guests weren’t aware of this before we mentioned it). We only used this once though the food was acceptable and welcome after our day’s journey from the south east part the island where we’d been staying and making stops en route to visit other places of interest.

We had to ask for the 5 dogs to be kept in their quarters since when we woke on our first morning one had defecated in several places on the terrace immediately outside the main doorway; the smell was awful and clearly it was unhealthy. There was also a dead small animal covered in flies on the fence that same morning. We contacted the cleaner who came quickly to clear it all up. The smell of dog faeces was also very bad in a particular area surrounding the pool most days, which meant we had to move to another part of the sun bed area, sharing that part with other guests. This was fine with them and us but would have been awkward if the other residents had also wanted to use the pool and sun beds. Guests should be aware that there are no restaurants or shops/supermarkets or liquor stores within walking distance, so it’s necessary to get taxis to get supplies and eat out.

Perfect trip to Zanzibar

The place was beyond beautiful. We loved every aspect of the rooms, the pool, the view. The hosts were communicative and the staff were very kind. The WiFi worked, the water was hot, and the dogs were adorable.

Nothing at all!

I would stay again

Spacious and like having your own house on the island. The five big dogs really made it feel cozy like a home once they got used to us and calmed down a bit. In the beginning Mario was jumping up on us and scatching us. Bimbo was the sweetest and would sit outside the door and cry for us to come pet him... which we couldn't resist!

The bed was very bad. We sprayed for bugs when we arrived because wasps were inside the house and when we woke up the next morning there were several dead cockroaches around the house.

Highly recommended for a family. Beautiful, private and secure with very helpful staff. The villa is a short drive to pl

Beautiful and clean cottage that includes everything you need. The infinity pool and outdoor seating areas were our favourite.

Best family holiday ever!

The view is excellent, and the pool is very well kept. The dogs on the property really made it feel like home .The Host Chiara was excellent and was always there to assist with info about things to do and anything we required.

The kitchen has limited cooking options and no microwave.

Fantistic Accomodation & great contact with Chiara prior to our stay, she was always on hand to help us with tours, car rental or any other questions we may have had. The place itself is just perfect but you need a car (which we had thankfully) to manoeuvre around and reach Kendwa in about 5 min or Nungwi in about 10 min drive. Samuel was really helpfull during our stay and we would come back there in a heartbeat. The pool is such a great bonus after a long day spent at the beach or youring the island, and the views from it are amazing. AC and WIFI worked really well, and the kitchen is fully equiped, you truly have all you need for a perfect holiday.

Superb

Superb facilities, everything is perfect!! Very stylish and comfy... The terrace and the pool is amazing!! Short ride to Nungwi 10min scooter!

Things to know: You have to know there's nothing around... So you need a scooter or a ride for restaurants and to go to Kendwa or Nungwi 10min! There's no beach close (walking distance) And the villa is shared, there is two I think!

Excellent and comfortable.

I liked the location because it was at a very good location, close to kendwa and nungwi. The host was excellent Chiara really took care of us, was there when we checked in, made everything easier, tried guiding us and sent us a ride to pick us up from the airport, and helped us with the activities that we have done in zanzibar. The house was super clean, has all the facilities we needed, nice view and a clean pool, and the dogs were really friendly and well trained. And the door man samu was always available, made us feel safe and was very friendly too. I would definitely visit zanzibar and the villa again.

Perfect

We spent 2 days in Big Furaha Villa and they were out of this world. The atmosphere in here is amazing, Chiara is a wonderful woman always here to help you and always smiling. We never got the word "no" from her, and it enchanced so much our trip. The villa is perfect for chilling in group or couple, with a magnificent view. The swimingpool is amazing and the rooms have everything you need. I would definetly come back here! Thank you Chiara for everything 🙏

Everything was more than perfect.

Wonderful pool, view, and host! Spacious and clean.

What a perfect place to relax! The apartment is spacious and comfortable, with decorations that made me feel at home. There's a brilliant pool overlooking a horse farm and the sea, with a hammock, lounge chairs, swings, and couches. Everything is so clean, pretty, and inviting. The kitchen is well-appointed. It's just an easy, beautiful place to stay. Chiara is an amicable, diligent host and made everything go smoothly. Knowing I was arriving alone and without a car, she brought over some fruit and staples to make dinner. (She offered to pick me up, but I preferred to come on foot. There's not much within a 20-minute walk, just a couple of street stalls with basic produce, nonperishables, and cooked fish. For those with wheels, stock up and you're golden.) A fault in the power grid made electricity unreliable during my stay, and Chiara discounted the rate even though it wasn't her fault and didn't detract much from my stay. Communication with Chiara was easy, from arranging a meeting time and place to my early-morning departure. There are four friendly dogs on the premises; they love attention but are well-trained and do not enter the rooms. I had time to stay just one night; I wish I'd had a week!

No complaints!

Cozy paradise!

In a well-guarded area, there are two villas: for four (our Big Furaha villa) and for two. The house has a well-equipped kitchen-dining room, a spacious terrace overlooking the pool and ocean. Both bedrooms have air conditioning and fan. Parking place and nice garden. Chiara, a very hospitable hostess, lives nearby and can always help with any question. We made friends with four cute dogs who guarded the territory and every morning met us on the terrace. Highly recommend for travelers with a car: Kendwa Beach is 10 minutes away, a little further to Nungwi. We bought octopuses, squid, fish at the fish store in Nungwi and dined on the terrace overlooking the ocean. We didn't want to leave, but we hope to come back again))

Wonderful view, lovely host! A bit far from everywhere but worth it. We will be back for sure thanks

The host was really lovely, the swimming pool, the view. The kitchen and the huge fridge. The cleanness also. AC in the room and calmness.

Nothing, we absolutely enjoyed everything ! Maybe the location is a bit far for people who doesn't have any transportation. Wasn't a problem for us as we had a car.
