The breakfast is basic, but price/performance is perfect. There's butter, peanut butter and some sauces. There's a toaster for the bread. Each person gets two eggs per breakfast by opting out the preparation way - scrambled, boiled, Spanish omelet... Fruits is abundant (watermelon and papaya during my stay). Instant coffee and couple of variates of a Tanzanian tea are an option as well. Juice is available also.

The hotel staff Mohammed, Sara were great and helpful. The security guard was very friendly and welcoming. AC was wonderful after a day in the sun at the beach. They kept my bags secure on my last day after checkout without issue. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

We had an amazing time at the Rafiki backpackers hostel. The owner is very friendly, energetic and helpful. His cares a lot for his guests! The house is located near an almost private beach which is lovely. The room is also good and spacious enough, with a nice bed and clean toilet and shower. Would highly recommend.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I’d say that greens is a great option if you want an accommodation in Nungwi that’s budget friendly. It’s close to the center and close enough to the beach. As a female solo traveler I’ve always felt safe in the neighborhood, even at night time. Do not hesitate to chose Green !
