The staff is really really kind and always with a smile on their face! The breakfast is really good and the dinner we have every night is even better! Everything to try but the fish is really really good and the chef is really really good! The room was really clean, with perfect functioning air conditioning and fan! Nothing to say about Ondo House, we had a really good stay! In 1 minute by foot you are at the beach (that have the best sea of the island, really beautiful beach) and in 5 minute you are in the centre of Nungwi village! REALLY RECOMMENDED!

The hotel was great! it absolutely exceeded my expectations. The hotel is run by a father-son duo who take care of all your needs be it with places to visit, arranging transport or keeping your food ready at the in house restaurant if your arriving late or from a long day of being out and about. The staff is equally helpful and will cater to all your needs. The rooms were big & clean. The swimming pool & the garden is great to just hang out in. The quality & taste of breakfast, lunch and dinner were very impressive. The walk from the hotel to the beach is just around 5 minutes. Kudos to the team at Ocean Breeze Boutique Hotel. 10/10. Will definitely recommend to people who are visiting the island and need a place to stay a little away from the beach and crowds.

Very lovely staff, the host Pascal was extremely accommodating, they also serve a lovely breakfast of fruits, omelette and toast/chapati which starts off the day on the right note… super clean property and one of the most modern rooms I have stayed in during our time in Kenya and Tanzania (for this price) - have no problem recommending the property!
