"This property was not one in which you could access things easily because it was a little bit off the beaten track. However, that’s my style so I really liked it. A popular areas were very busy congested noisy and chaotic. They have a Tour company on staff, that’s reasonable in price, reliable, and there specifically for that resort, so you don’t have to wait to pick up other people before getting to go where you want to go. I did find that I wanted to try other restaurants and food. I wasn’t...

Cactus Lodge Zanzibar

Nungwi

"My stay at Cactus Lodge was heavenly. My first time traveling alone from the US (New York), I am so glad I booked my stay here. The place hidden in plain sight, opening up the gate to a gorgeous beach vibe. The hotel rooms were very clean, spacious and well air conditioned. Hot water was almost immediate as you turn it on. It was so easy to confirm excursions through the owner/staff and it is very close to all the nightlife. All of the staff were amazing also. So kind, they made me feel so safe....

Maisha Nungwi

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was perfect. "

Zenobia Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"I had an amazing stay at Zenobia Beach Resort. The service was excellent, and everyone was so kind and welcoming from the moment | arrived. The resort is right on the beach with a beautiful view, and the à la carte breakfast was a great start to each day. Glory, the hotel manager, was wonderful and made sure everything ran smoothly. I also want to mention Ali, our tour guide, was friendly and made my experience even better. My only complaint is it had bad water pressure"

Smiles Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Smiles was lovely. Comfortable rooms, ok breakfast, very nice dinners. Always fishing boats to watch when the tide is in. Great swimming beach when the tide was coming and going. I would recommend this small non alcoholic Beach Hotel. Lots of shopping and restaurants just outside their gate. Security was very good. "
