Nomusa South Africa

Very clean and spacious rooms with comfortable beds. Everything was well maintained (the pool need some little fixing) and clean.

Benjamin Switzerland

the vibe is excellent we spent in nungwi 8 days in hotel opera every day we been out or stay in the hotel enjoying pool, drinks, food and amazing massages by spa, was worried if that would be to long but no there is really a lot of to do in the hotel, hospitality was great the owners are truly amazing people

Barbara South Africa

The owners are very friendly and helpful. WiFi throughout the hotel good. Breakfasts are good. No one goes hungry. Nice service. The location is favorable, but without a cab it is difficult to get around. Access road stave with holes, not lit. Cab can be ordered without a problem. The hotel has everything on site, water, non-alcoholic drinks and spirits. You can always buy extra. Cool pool in full sun (you have to watch out for the sun) Sun loungers, etc. on site under a canopy or trees. Beautiful , green and pleasant. Dobra baza wypadowa na plażę i zwiedzanie okolicy. Pływanie z żółwiami super, Stone town - piękne miasto. Bardzo dobre jedzenie w restauracjach.One did not want to leave.

Jacqueline Switzerland

Excellent breakfast & restaurant, well maintained property, great pools & massage options, air conditioning in the room with different options for sleeping time, amazing hosts

Ancuta Romania

The hotel was beautiful and the staff were all exceptional. The rooms were lovely and I had the most incredible massage!

Alice Peru

Nice and quiet hotel run by an Italian family. The layout of the rooms creates a closed space surrounding the internal garden and courtyard with a swimming pool. The owners have designed the hotel with great care and attention to detail - combination of Arabic and Italian moods in design and in kitchen. Good restaurant, helpful and responsive staff, clean, change of towels, including beach towels on request. Support in finding activities such as snorkeling, etc. The hotel is located on the border of Nungwi and Kendwa - you can decide each day which beach to go to. Restaurants in Nungwi within 20 minutes walk or 5 minutes by taxi. We were surprised that in Zanzibar (also in the hotel) 5% is added to the price of the service for card transactions. It is worth taking more cash with you - it will be cheaper

Tomasz Poland

The cleanliness of the rooms and the overall feel of luxury. Beautiful pool area. Very relaxing

Vitowe South Africa

Breakfast was great and had lots of options. Staff were super friendly. We loved that we could access the pool 24 hours a day!
