We enjoyed our stay very much. Everything clean, good service, nice staff. Good location just few steps from the beach. Every second evening we could have delicious barbecue dinner all you can eat including sea food for just 12 dollars/person. We loved the style of the accomodation - everything made from natural materials, plants on the garden.. Highly recommended!
Czech RepublicBy far the friendliest and most attentive and accommodating local staff in Zanzibar! It’s a very comfortable hostel, easy to lounge around and relax in all day. Felt like home.
SpainThe place just has its own magic! its paradise inside of the paradise! The Manager! Rafi! Just do anything for you! Very helpful and nice stuff! Amazing BBQ all you can eat just gonna kill. Such a chill atmosphere! One of the places i have ever visited.
Czech RepublicI spent just one night there but if there were more available, I would definitely have stayed longer. The place is really well managed, the staff were friendly, breakfast delicious, beds comfy, and overall it had nice vibes. Furthermore, there were many good places in there to do remote work and it was just a short walking distance from the beach. Would highly recommend.
PolandBeautiful internal yard. Relax atmosphere. Good breakfast at the common long tables, which encourage you for a talk with neighbors
UkraineAmazing staff, awesome atmosphere, great for our little boy, will be back
United KingdomNice and clean rooms, friendly staff, very close to the beach just less than 2 minutes walk. Very good food at the in house restaurant, and many other restaurants and bars nearby also.
TanzaniaLocation Superb, Staff Great, Entertainment/Open Area lends itself to socialising with all guests, BBQ excellent and Fire Show Entertaining, Stunning place I will be back
South AfricaLovely place!! Good vibes!! Delicious breakfast! I really enjoyed my time here ! Asante ! Grazie ! 🇹🇿🇮🇹🇷🇸
SerbiaVibe is great, food is cheap compared to rest of Nungwi and actually really good (try the Makofi burger, Makofi carbonara and curry). There’s enforced quiet hours after 10:30 so it’s not a typical noisy hostel but there’s always a crowd at the bar. Staff were super helpful and 1st time in 3 hotels they took the time to explain about the surroundings and dangers Sports and board games are available and the wifi is the fastest in any hotel or restaurant that I tried in Nungwi, YouTube is very usable Location is also right next to the best beaches and restaurants in Nungwi Stayed at Aluna the night before which was 3x more expensive and way worse.
