Very nice hotel! There was a kitchen that we could use, a lounge with hammocks, and the rooms was very clean. Raphy was a helpful host. By foot, it takes about 15 min to the nearest beach, and about 35 min to the main Nungwi beach.

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!

I spent four nights at the Ocean Breeze and everything was great, from Abdallah’s (the owner who has a thousand stories to tell) and the rest of the staff’s (Abduli, Nasrah and Nadia) welcome, to the plentiful breakfast (with lots of fruits like I like it!) and the spacious room.

We have never met such friendly and warm atmosphere. All the staff were trying to make our stay unforgettable. The rooms are very clean, decorated in a Zanzibar way, not very spacious, but cozy. The territory is filled with various flowers and trees. There were 2 parties during our stay, but they didn’t disturb us, as all had ended at reasonable time. Highland Bungalows are located not far away (10 min walking) from the best beach in Nungwi. Restaurant is amazing as the prices are very good and quality is high. Every evening we spent there our time, as this restaurant was the best, taking into account quality/prices. If we needed anything, it was enough to inform the staff and everything was done. The staff was ready to help you at anytime. Breakfast was ok: eggs (different way cooked), bread, sausage, fruit, fresh juice, tea/coffee and jam. We would like to thank Britta for such an amazing stay and farewell party! She made our stay so cozy, as if you had been staying at your friend’s home. Incredible! And I would like to thank a woman who works in the morning for her everyday smile and an amazing cake she cooked for us! I will never forget it.

    Leafy home stay environment close to the beach and little local shops. Spacious property boasting a yoga Shala and lots of relaxing places to chill. Locals outside are quite persistent about trying to sell you something. Good experience on Nungwi.
