Nungwi, Nungwi, Tanzania –

Lock in a great price for Nungwi House – rated 9.2 by recent guests!

to get started.

I liked the kindness of the staff. Tito is excellent always with a smile. Took us around the village and to the turtle Aquarium.Nothing ws too much trouble for him.And Moudy the Manager runs the place so well. Always willing to do anything for their guests. When we were very hungry in the afternoon time, and did not feel like going out in the sun,he bought for us bread rolls with his money. The rooms are very clean.With comfortable bedding and rain shower is hot. All was satisfactory. Wi-Fi works very well.

Everything! The location is great (in contrast to other fancy hotels which demand 15 minutes walk to the center) The breakfast is great. And most important - the stuff! Great service, everything is taken care of, and it actually feels "home". We've spent 7 nights, and when we come again - we'll choose nungwi house again :-)

Yonatan, Israel

Everything was perfect!! Close to the beach/shops, staff was amazing & very insightful/helpful (helped us plan excursions and make arrangements for travel and gave great dining recommendations), breakfast was delicious

Carly, Canada

The best thing about this place was how flexible they were with our schedule! We arrived early in the morning (at 6am when our booking only started at 10) and there were no problems with getting a room and relaxing after our flight. And, when our plans changed and we wanted to leave a day early, they were super accommodating and let us not pay for the last night. The host was also very helpful, gave us many useful suggestions regarding things to do and helped us book good deals for excursions. He was a great gay! Also - breakfast was lovely every day. The rooms are exactly as they appear in the pictures!

Service and personal are good. Cheaper seafood in Nungwi comparing to Paje town. Hotel arranged the taxi by the lowest price. Beautiful beaches and close to Kendwa Nice breakfasts

Galyna, Ukraine

An amazing stay! All the staff were friendly and accommodating to our needs. The breakfast was delicious and filling; especially the fresh chapati and smoothie! The manager was lovely and walked us to the beach which was a 3 mins walk. The manager then proceeded to take us to the turtle sanctuary which is where we wanted to spend our morning. He was kind enough to stay with us during our time at the sanctuary and even hold our bags! Overall, Nungwi House is a little gem hidden away in Nungwi and budget friendly! Highly recommended!

Nicola, United Kingdom

This is a basic clean hotel with a good bathroom. One bed was great, the other needs to be rotated as it was saggy in the middle. It was close to everything, safe, staff were kind, breakfast was included. I would stay again.

Emily, United States of America

We had a really good stay. If we will be back in Zanzibar we ll choose this place again for sure. The best thing about this place is the staff. They are amazing with their guests. They will offer you a good breakfast, keep the place nice and clean and they will always be there if you have any question. Mudi, the manager will make sure everyone is having a good time and he will answer to whatever questions you have about the place or touristic stuff. We choose this place for the location and their customer service. We were not disappointed. Thank you to everyone who's working there for making out stay great. :)

Stefana, Romania

Everything was great about our stay - the room was very clean and comfortable; the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly; the location was incredibly close to the beach. The manager, Moudy, was super approachable/friendly/helpful for our entire trip organizing the taxi rides for us as well as any day trips such as to stone town and a spice tour and was there to answer all our questions. The other staff (Tito and Maryam) were also very friendly and made great breakfasts of a large fruit plate + eggs/bread + smoothie. The driver they use for taxi hire, Ally, was also great and friendly. Fantastic stay and would stay here again.

There is no A/C but I did not need it because the ceiling fan was very good; however, it can be warm at times.
The beach is a three minute walk, very easy to get to. There are markets to get water, beer, snacks etc. You are in a location with local people but it is safe and you are welcomed. Seafood on beach amazing and good price relative to Europe or America.

No AC but I generally slept well and cool enough at night with powerful ceiling fan. Biggest gripe is people around hotel and on the beach will NOT leave you alone no matter what. I was exhausted after eight days of constant constant constant approaches to buy or just give money. It's a serious problem and it will wear you out.
Beach is close rooms large as well as bathroom with good water pressure and very hot water if you want but I didn't because it's hot

The hotel is not on the beach front, but walking to the beach takes a few minutes. The road to the beach is dusty but then its a village place. The room did not have wardrobe or TV. But it was not a big problem to us. No fridge in the room but also can use the one in the sharing breakfast room anytime.
I liked the kindness of the staff. Tito is excellent always with a smile. Took us around the village and to the turtle Aquarium.Nothing ws too much trouble for him.And Moudy the Manager runs the place so well. Always willing to do anything for their guests.

Please keep a torch in the room and prepare guests that power shutdown occurs and this is fixed by a back up generator. This is t be anticipated so the torch is provided.
Manager has ensured each request is fulfilled to high standard. Teamwork behind the scenes is apparent for coordination of everything from breakfast requests, currency exchange,laundry, recommendations for beach and restaurants.

I was there when it was scorching hot so the bedroom did get hot as they only have fans but that was the only slight caveat.
Basic rooms but so clean and excellent shower! Staff were fantastic and went out of their way to help. Amazing breakfasts and all in all a great stay. As a solo traveller it was in a safe location and I would highly recommend to those who maybe don’t want to pay the high prices of hotels on the beach. This was just a two minute walk from the beaches so perfect. Thank you Moudy and Marion and the rest of the team!

Sometimes it can get a bit stuffy in the rooms due to no AC but it’s not a major issue because you can still manage to sleep
The staff are incredible, they do everything they possibly can to make you feel welcome and help you out. I was walked to the beach and the supermarket so I knew where to go, they could have easily just pointed me in the right direction but they really went the extra mile to make sure I was okay. Also the breakfast was amazing!! Location was good

Value for money, you can't get sea view and A/C for the amount we paid. However, an A/C to pay daily for would have been nice.
We got what we expected, and with value for the money. The host Mudi and Meryem created an atmosphere of support and warmth. Was always at hand and we enjoyed discussions with Mudi. A perfect host. An A/C in the room would have been perfect as February in Nungwi is awfully hot.
