Canary Nungwi Hotel & SPA

Hotel in Nungwi Beach, Nungwi

Located in Nungwi, a 4-minute walk from Nungwi Beach, Canary Nungwi Hotel & SPA provides accommodations with a fitness center, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. I was very positively surprised by the quality of staff, the food and the cleanliness of our rooms and bathrooms vs. the price we paid. The managers were incredibly helpful in terms of providing any info, items we needed, or even having a laugh together at the tennis table. The atmosphere was very chill and most importantly the staff was trustworthy - we didn't fear loosing the money or luggage. Plus, the best octopus in Nungwi ;)

Z-Lodge Zanzibar

Hotel in Kiwengwa

Located in Kiwengwa, a few steps from Kiwengwa Beach, Z-Lodge Zanzibar provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. It’s silent! it feels like you’re on uninhabited island. Place to switch off your mind from all the outside world. Room is spacious, clean. All works. There was no water distraction what so ever. Pool is very nice. Food is just awesome. Please mind that this place is to relax. There are no parties there. You can walk on a beach like 15-20 minutes to a main activities. But Z-Lodge is away from masaai, away from loud crowd. It’s awesome place to find your piece.

Babalao Bungalows

Hotel in Nungwi Beach, Nungwi

Babalao Bungalows has free bikes, outdoor swimming pool, a garden and shared lounge in Nungwi. With a terrace, the property also features a restaurant, as well as a bar. Ahmet and the staff accommodated our every need, they went above and beyond to fulfil each request. The location of the hotel is great, secluded but close to the beach. The bungalows and all of the facilities are comfortable, in a tropical garden which is great for chilling out. We really enjoyed the bbq night with live music. The breakfast was great.

Be Zanzibar Boutique Hotel

Hotel in Mfumbwi

Facing the beachfront, Be Zanzibar Boutique Hotel offers 5-star accommodations in Mfumbwi and features an outdoor swimming pool, garden and terrace. We had a wonderful stay at Be Zanzibar. Everything exceeded expectations! The owner, who is an architect, thought of every detail and curated a beautiful experience merging his experiences in Mexico and Dubai! They have multiple water sports you can do for free (clear kayak, paddle board, water bikes, etc.), and a dhow if you want to go snorkeling. The food at the restaurant, Casa Coco, was the cherry on top…great selection to choose from and the best Thai fried rice we have had at a non-Thai restaurant. Many thanks to Tarek, Alé, Yahya, and the whole Be Zanzibar family. Can’t recommend this place enough. We will definitely be back again soon!

Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar

Hotel in Mtende

Located in Mtende, 22 miles from Zanzibar Butterfly Centre, Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar has accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. I travelled with my kids and to be honest this place did not feel like a lodge or hotel, it felt like home away from home. Everyone from the owners Eric and Sophie to all the staff were so warm, friendly and welcoming. They made it so hard for us to leave. We really enjoyed our vacation and we will for sure go back there. Thank you to all of the Lodges staff and a big thank you to Eric and Sophie for make our trip a memorable one. We will always remember this holiday.

TIANDE Boutique Hotel

Hotel in Pwani Mchangani

Located in Pwani Mchangani, a 3-minute walk from Pwani Mchangani Beach, TIANDE Boutique Hotel provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. The hotel is beautiful and cozy. Few rooms so it feels like family. The owner Mariola was super kind and helpful, the staff was also super kind. It's not on the beach, so it is very quiet, and the beach is only 2 minutes away. The village is also very close. There's a little dog and a little monkey, both very friendly (I already miss them!). We had a great time, and I would definitely come back again!
