Babalao Bungalows has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Nungwi. 200 metres from Nungwi Beach and 42 km from Kichwele Forest Reserve, the property offers a restaurant and a bar. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. We read the reviews before booking but were amazed that everything was even better! The owner Max welcomed us on our arrival and we had welcome drinks and children got ice creams. Very lovely place, spacious and clean rooms, comfortable beds. We loved the relaxing pool/restaurant area. Great to connect with other guests. Free water available at all times. Great breakfast that is different every day and it has no end time. One day we had a very early tour and we had our breakfast at noon. Beach is also very close. Max was so helpful that he even organized us a driver to take us to Paje for two times less money than our planned taxi was going to be. We would definitely recommend this place to everyone! Ps. Our kids favourite part were the friendly dog and the cat.

With a private beach area, the 4-star resort has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom.

All meals were delicious and reasonably priced. I would just come back for the food alone :). There is a lot of activities you can enjoy (free of charge) like yoga, reef walks, and Swahili lessons. 10/10 no doubt.

Located in Jambiani, 300 metres from Jambiani Beach, Zanzi Soul Luxury Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a private beach area. This 4-star hotel offers a kids' club, room service and free WiFi. Guests can enjoy African and American dishes at the restaurant or have a cocktail at the bar. We loved everything about this hotel. This is a relatively new hotel and small hotel (only 6 rooms), located in a dreamed place with stunning ocean views from every room. The rooms are big and comfortable, beautifully designed and very well maintained. Restaurant/bar open from 7am to 11pm every day. Food is ok but we went in low season and the hotel was at half capacity so I think this might be better in high season, cocktails were really good. This is an ideal hotel if you are looking for a very quiet relaxing vibe, operated by their owners, on the beach (the hotel is design to live your holiday barefoot as all common areas are sand, don’t worry there’s a feet washer outside every room). Town is a nice 30 min walk down the beach only in low tide, or a USD 5 taxi/tuc tuc. We loved it so much that we end up cancelling another hotel we had in the north of the island just to stay more time here. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a super relaxed holiday, were you don’t need to leave the hotel if you don’t want to. Beautiful beach walks and amazing snorkel right there from the beach.

The property features pool and garden views, and is 600 metres from Kendwa Beach. The bed and breakfast offers a sun terrace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. We had such a great stay at Kendwa Breeze! It’s a really cozy and peaceful place, just a short walk from the stunning Kendwa Beach. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the whole vibe was super relaxing. But what really made our stay special was the staff – so friendly and welcoming, always happy to help.

With a shared lounge, the 5-star resort has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The resort features an outdoor swimming pool, evening entertainment and room service. It is a small hotel with an amazing view and services. I recommend booking the room with direct sea view. Rooms are very romantic. Dining experience was superb. Chef Suleiman really amazed us with his dishes. I definitely recommend booking at least half-board package. The restaurant offers a la carte menu with different items every day. On some nights they arranged local shows (thanks to Cecelia for the services). Staff are very helpful and kind.
