The room and the facilities are very comfortable. The breakfast is rich and delicious. The owner and his assistant, Viktor are exceptionally friendly and helpful in really everything. The biggest help was that Viktor arranged motorcycle taxi (boda-boda) every day to the beach. The price is 3.000. TSH. for one way. Thank you again Jusuf and Viktor for the cosy accomodation :)

I spent four nights at the Ocean Breeze and everything was great, from Abdallah’s (the owner who has a thousand stories to tell) and the rest of the staff’s (Abduli, Nasrah and Nadia) welcome, to the plentiful breakfast (with lots of fruits like I like it!) and the spacious room.

Upon arrival, we were welcomed with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that immediately made us feel at home. Our host personally escorted us to our beautifully appointed room, taking the time to point out all the amenities and making sure we had everything we needed. Every morning, we were treated to a scrumptious breakfast spread and the host was a wealth of knowledge about the local area and offered us invaluable recommendations for restaurants, sightseeing spots, and activities. It was like having our personal tour guide who knew precisely what would cater to our preferences

Basically everything was great even more then I expected, very friendly personnel, The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. We had put up in this hotel for three days and we undoubtedly had the best experience ever. The owner of this place was right on spot, she was very helpful to us and had taken care of everything from our stay in the hotel. The food at the restaurant was really good and service was quick. We would recommend this Highland Bungalows to any of you who is looking for a great stay and food in a budget hotel.
