Top Nungwi Mnarani Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Aluna Beach Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Really enjoyed our stay here. Fabulous breakfast, lovely rooftop bar with gorgeous views. It’s a bit off the beaten path so not as touristy. There are still several restaurants within walking distance."

Hotel Riu Palace Swahili – All Inclusive – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"Just supply the towels back after you take them out. Other than that, everything was excellent."

The Zanzibari

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic staff. Everyone helpful and cheerful. Beautiful setting, very peaceful. Would definitely return if in Zanzibar again"

Essque Zalu Zanzibar

10/10 Excellent

"Extraordinarily attentive staff with personable service. We enjoyed the spicy sauce and Flora went out of her way to make a specific batch to take with us. Elias was also friendly and knew when to circle back to us."

Nungwi Dreams by Mantis

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice"

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."

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!"

Kai Zanzibar Hotel and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time "
