Garden pearls is a recently renovated guest house in Nungwi near Kendwa Beach. This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. Our stay at this guesthouse was wonderful. The rooms were spacious and very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were delicious, varied, and filling. The location is great, as you can walk to two of the best beaches — Kendwa or Nungwi. It takes about 25–30 minutes on foot to reach each beach. We are very satisfied with our stay. There’s also a great restaurant just about 50 meters away, where the food is excellent.

Providing a garden, Zuzanu house features accommodations in Nungwi. With inner courtyard views, this accommodation offers a balcony. Breakfast is impressive. I normally don’t eat breakfast but I eat as much as I can here only because they are so delicious. Fruits are super fresh and they keep all the breads warm for each person which is very considerate. Location is walking distance to the beach and it’s a quieter beach than other main ones so I really like it.

A few steps from Matemwe Beach in Matemwe, Boutique Villa Unaweza provides accommodations with access to spa facilities. This was a beautiful oasis for our family. After 33 hours traveling to get to Zanzibar we use our time there to get climatized before doing a safari in Tanzania. The staff were super friendly. Food and drinks were great. Loved it!
