Babalao Bungalows

Hotel in Nungwi Beach, Nungwi

Babalao Bungalows has free bikes, outdoor swimming pool, a garden and shared lounge in Nungwi. Featuring a restaurant, the property also has a terrace and a bar. Babalao is small with all the comforts of a 5 star resort. But is even better and they do things better. From the check in the owner Max gave us all the information we needed via WhatsApp from the app that we had to download regarding the tides, the restaurant menus, lists of restaurants to go to, prices of beds at the beach etc. There is no end time for breakfast, and the pool is open until the last guests decides to stop using it. The bungalows are wonderful! Shower pressure is good for Zanzibar, airco and beds comfortable. They even have robes. The food in the restaurant is just as good as the ones outside too! It was yummy!! The pictures here on Booking doesn’t do it justice! Once you enter this place it’s like a beautiful oasis with palm and banana trees and has cozy corners where you can chill on a lounge bed or hammocks. The staff were sweet and very helpful! Although not a beachfront property in Nungwi, it is just a 2 minute walk to the beach where all the hustle and bustle is. Also a 2 minute walk to Spanish Dancer Diving where we had booked a day of diving. All in all Babalao Bungalows is a fantastic place to stay with a chill atmosphere that gives great vibes once you walk in the property. We have absolutely enjoyed our stay here. Oh and the WiFi is great! Take it from someone who loves to upload on social media to share the travel and holiday videos and pics that are high quality. Thank you Babaloa for a wonderful stay at your Bungalows! We enjoyed every minute of it!

Mahali Zanzibar

Hotel in Paje Beach, Paje

Featuring a private beach area, a year-round outdoor pool and free Wi-Fi, Mahali Zanzibar is set in Paje, Zanzibar. The hotel features a sun terrace and views of the sea. There really isn’t anything not to love about this place. The location is absolutely perfect right in the middle of one of the most gorgeous beaches in Zanzibar. The staff was beyond welcoming and set up a dinner and anything we wanted. The rooms were huge and well appointed. If you are a kite boarder you have reached your heaven. If you just want to lay on the beach or by a crystal clean pool then… pure bliss. Breakfast every morning was delicious and served with a smile. We can’t recommend this wonderful place enough.

Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar 4 stars

Hotel in Mtende

Set in Mtende, 35 km from Zanzibar Butterfly Centre, Baobab Africa Lodge Zanzibar offers accommodation 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 4 stars

Hotel in Pwani Mchangani

Located in Pwani Mchangani, 300 metres from Pwani Mchangani Beach, TIANDE Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. The property is so pretty- the gardens are beautiful and it’s a quick walk to the beach. Although TianDe isn’t directly on the beach, Mariola (the owner) has a friendly relationship with a neighboring hotel that is first row, so guests can spend time there during the day. The bar and restaurant area are lovely and the food is yummy and fresh- we tried breakfast, lunch and dinner. The pool is sparkling, and the staff is warm and hard-working. Our room was clean and comfortable, with A/C, tea/coffee, good shower, nice decor. Mariola and her boyfriend live on site- they are doing a fantastic job running TianDe with a lot of hard work and love. We wish them success and will recommend to TianDe to anyone traveling to Zanzibar.
