Sandies Baobab Beach Zanzibar, hotel in Nungwi

Sandies Baobab Beach Zanzibar is located in Nungwi and features air-conditioned rooms. A private beach area and an outdoor swimming pool are offered.

the hotel was on a large property with lush gardens and quaint cottages for rooms that allowed ample space for guests to still enjoy their vacation without being on top of each other. the common areas were also spacious and simply designed to allow the island to shine as naturally as possible. We had intially booked a room with one queen and one twin bed but since we arrived at the beginning of the season, the hotel wasn't as full so they gave us a small cottage closer to the beach that had one queen bed. We inquired about this and the reception was willing to switch us to a room with twin beds but those cottages were quite a distance from the beach and the room wasn't bigger. They advised us the room we booked wasn't available as of yet. As we were friends who were travelling, we had to make do sharing a queen bed but it wasn't too bad to share. The staff were friendly and the breakfasts were great. they also had staff who were entertainment people who facilitated evening activities that brought guests together for good times and connection. The beaches are pristine and naturally exquisite. There are several locals who make a living offering tourist excursions and will approach people for sales but a firm no will get them to enjoy your beach time peacefully. There are multiple local restaurants and bars along the beach where one can enjoy the local scene as well. We were two women friends and we felt safe to walk around the villages and the most that happened was locals saying a hello as we passed by. We walked through the villages for 20mins to the turtle sanctuary and back and no one bothered us. I love Zanzi, this was my third visit and I plan on being back soon. As a fellow East AFrican from Ethiopia, I feel safe and amongst my people in this stunning island.

Canary Hotel & SPA, hotel in Nungwi

Located in Nungwi, a 2-minute walk from Royal Beach, Canary Hotel & SPA provides accommodations with free bikes, free private parking, a fitness center and a garden.

The staff was amazing and really made sure, that we have everything that we need. Since the hotel on the pictures is currently under renovation, we got a room in the Canary Nungwi Hotel with a free room upgrade and free 60 minutes massage for each one of us. It would be better to place some information in the Booking.com description, that the hotel is a different one, but they really cared well for us at the other hotel, it was a great stay and they definitely made it up for that small confusion. They also let us stay a bit longer on our last day and gave us a different room, such that we could shower once more before heading to the airport in the late afternoon.

    on the beach, expect constant stalking and harassment on a whole new level (and i've been to 70 countries including 7 other countries in Africa) people will rudely interrupt your conversations or meddle even when you tend to children in case to offer their (sometimes illegal) goods or services, and become angry if ignored, or just keep standing/walking next to you, sometimes in groups, sometimes to the hotel door or whatever other destination, trying to imitate your language all the while if you talk back to them and allow them to tag along, they will demand money for their time/effort afterwards so definitely not recommended for families with kids, and generally you have to be tough to be able to enjoy the (very dirty) beach despite all this

    Nungwi is probaly the nicest beach in Zanzibar. Its not overcrowded and yet has enough restaurants and bars. Alway take care when walking along the beach, when you try to return you might not be able to due to high and low tide. Also visting and eating at the fish food market is a must, tgey have daily fresh fish and seafood and tge prices are affordable

    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.

The hotel's location is fantastic right next to the beach with a unique opportunity to watch the sunset over Tanzania, walk distance to several restaurants, bars and walk along one of Zanzibar's most beautiful beaches all the way to the north point of the island

The locations can not be better, with exceptional view of the sea and near from restaurants and beach bars. The staff were always willing to help with anything i needed and the owners are just exceptional. They were always available to advice on tour trips, money exchange, security and all i wanted to ask. Definitely recommended for this Zanzibar experience!

    During a 2 weeks period I stayed in 3 different 4-stars hotels in Nungwi and Z Hotel was the best. Staff is simply incredible, you see that each of them is doing everything to make you have a good time. Even the GM is almost every day asking how are you doing and if there is any feedback. It is at the heart of Nungwi. Rooftop Bar has the best view ever for the sunset and beach. Food is very good and menu has very large selection. This will be the hotel I will stay again if I go to Zanzibar.

    Simple, chill hotel in the Nungwi village, just a few minutes walk from the beach. It offers regular rooms as well as dorms, great breakfast, a small swimming pool and all the services you would expect. A full restaurant and a bigger swimming pool are available in the sister hotel right next door. We stayed for a week and wouldn't have minded staying longer . The staff are the nicest people you could wish for and made us feel right at home.
