    The beach and the resorts are beautiful. People are amazing!

    The beach and the resorts are beautiful. People are amazing! This situation with the Masai though its literally unbearable. They don't know when to stop bothering you. I am there to enjoy the sun and the beach not to be harassed by them, after I kindly explained that I don't wish to talk, have a good day, they literally follow me and don't leave me alone. This ruined my whole experience!! Every second, every single day.

    Nungwi used to be a small fishersmen's town, but it is now buzzing with bars, hotels and restaurants and lots of activities to do. If you want to go on a snorkeling trip, or have other fun activities. Then this is your spot. I appreciated the beautiful ful of the ocean - with the clear blue waters and the fishermen working.

    Nungwi was a very pleasant and happy part of the island.

    Nungwi was a very pleasant and happy part of the island. The locals are very friendly and always willing to help and go the extra mile. The beaches are clean and the difference between high and low tide is very minimal. You can swim at all times of the day.

    Nungwi is a good place for a traveler.

    Nungwi is a good place for a traveler. The place has a lot of trees around it which makes it more beautiful for someone who loves nature. You get to breath fresh air. However, the roads are not well maintained which makes it worse when it rains, but I think it is part of the experience. As you get to see how good the boda boda guys are at riding their bikes.

    The beaches were beautiful and there was a lot of excursions...

    The beaches were beautiful and there was a lot of excursions but they were not cheap. Our favourite restaurants were the Mama Mia (it's an Italian owned Italian restaurant) and the Sexy Fish (the restaurant of the Z Hotel which made very good fresh food). Within this area, it's very walkable (although we got cat-called non stop) and there were markets, the beach, restaurants, a pharmacy, supermarkets and money exchanges. There are also taxi drivers everywhere, although I was given the advice of only using a reputable taxi recommended from the hotel. Excursions that my friends did was jet-skiing, swimming and snorkelling with dolphins, swimming with turtles, scuba diving, sunset cruises and fishing. I'm not a fan of boats, but I was very happy renting a sun bed and umbrella on the beach for around $6. Whilst people will try to sell you excursions, aloe vera, massages etc, there are tourist police around who will ensure that you are not too bothered.

    Our stay in Zanzibar at Nungwi Dreams by Mantis was very enjoyable. It is an excellent resort with a well trained staff. The front desk (Khatib) was very accommodating, the food and service was excellent (Noel and the Chef), the pool and beach crew (Abdul), was very attentive. The beach is small but the pools and grounds made up for it. Thank you all for making our stay enjoyable. I give Nungwi Dream by Mantis 5 stars and 9.8.

    There was AC in our room, breakfast was big, there was access to the beach directly with no buildings in front of the hotel, view from the second floor rooms and rooftop is nice. The hotel is located away from the main touristy area of Nungwi beach so you have more peace and quiet but you have to walk 10 min on the beach to the restaurants (can be a pro or con). The owner is very laid back and chill.

    Very nice staff, pretty room and good food. Also the pool is nice. Little extra: when I relocated just 5 minutes from the hotel, someone from the staff went with me to carry one of my bags. I really appreciated that. I was alone at Zanzibar but I felt comfortable at the Canary Nungwi hotel. Someone from the staff even showed me where the beach was, so I could find it myself the next time.

    Zuzana and Barack are great hosts. The house is new and built in a traditional way. Breakfast is freshly prepared by a chef and it had everything we needed. 2 min walk to the beach and several restaurants. The property is pretty close to a mosque (which is normal in Zanzibar) and you have earplugs in the room (quite useful). We would come again!
