Top Nungwi Mnarani Aquarium Hotel Reviews

The Zanzibari

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, great staff"

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili – All Inclusive – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect choice in Nungwi Kendwa area.Hotel is still new but staff at bars need a lot of training except for Hassan at main reception bar who was excellent"

Aluna Beach Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing stay. The apartment is equipped with everything you need. The communication is fantastic and the location is really good. The staff Sadia and Simon are amazing and give exceptional service. We really enjoyed outer stay. It is extremely clean and the staff are really kind"

Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at Turaco. The staff were very friendly and attentive, everything was clean and well maintained, and the food was delicious. There were different activities every day, from crafts and pool games to live music in the evenings. A lovely, relaxing atmosphere and a great place to spend a holiday. We would definitely recommend it!"

Amaan Beach Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"Exellent place to stay. A dreamlike beach view, nice swiming place and beautuful surrounding. Loved the place and enjoyed my time there."

Nungwi Dreams by Mantis

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed here 5nights with my friends and the experience was great. Very clean with good ambience and yummy buffet breakfast."

Maisha Nungwi

10/10 Excellent

"Couldn’t recommend this hotel more! We had an amazing stay at Maisha, the staff were an absolute highlight for us and really made the trip special. A huge shout out to Edward who was always a friendly face with warm conversation and made the best drinks at the bar, he really made our trip memorable! We loved the beach bar and the food and drinks were great. I highly recommend using the TukTuk service to visit local Nungwi & Kendwa beaches, it costs a couple of dollars and is very worth it. The drivers are great and can pick you up whenever needed. The staff are really helpful if you have any questions or need any recommendations on what to do on the island. We loved the couples massage and recommend doing this whilst at the hotel. The hotel is steps away from the Mnarani turtle conservation pond which was a highlight for us, and focuses on turtle welfare and rehabilitation vs a tourist trap."

Essque Zalu Zanzibar

8/10 Good

"Property is beautiful but there is no swimmable beach. They have a shuttle to another resort but they only do it twice a day, You have to pay $10 each but it is consummable, You can use the chairs and umbrellas but by the time you get there after 11 they are all occupied, if you don’t care about the beach then its ok. They have a nice pool and a jetty."

My Blue Hotel

8/10 Good

"Property grounds were nice. Rooms are a bit dated. The TV and telephone in our room did not work. Manager at reception was very accommodating and made our stay much better. The massages were excellent. Highly recommend them.! Wifi is awful! Love the balconies! The other downside is the beach, the beach is beautiful but you have to pay 25$ for 2 chairs and umbrella every day if you want to be on the beach. Otherwise they do have beach chairs on man made beach near infinity pool. Just depends on your preference! Food is ok. Nothing to rave about but something for everyone!"
