Helt greit
Pros:

Følte oss litt lurt, siden hotellet på bilder ga inntrykk av å ligge rett på stranda, når det egentlig lå bak en fotballbane omgitt av en mur. Utsikten fra takkafeen oppveide litt, for den var fantastisk. Hotellet var ellers et lite, pent og enkelt hotell, med hyggelig personale.

Pros:

No dia da nossa chegada, o hotel não estava preparado para nos receber, nos alocaram num quarto de emergência, e foram providenciar a limpeza de dois quartos. Roupas de cama e banho com manchas, cheiro de mofo nos quartos, faltou água todos os dias para banho ou higiene pessoal, a água do chuveiro esquentava por poucos minutos, depois agua praticamente fria, hotel ao lado de uma mesquita com um megafone que despertava dois quarteirões as 4hs da manhã, impossível descansar ou dormir depois. Não recomendo pela difícil localização do hotel, bem como pelo citado acima.

Great owner :)
Pros:

when we were checking in ismail told us that there was something wrong with the air conditioning in our room. he therefore took us to another hotel, which was a bit more expensive and said that we could stay there for the same price if we wanted. we thought that air conditioning is good to have in Zanzibar, so we accepted the offer. therefore unfortunately I can't say much about nungwi beach front hotel. but I was in contact with ismael during the whole stay and he arranged several trips for us. he was not fussy and was going to sell hundreds of things, but was very helpful when I contacted him. would recommend the hotel even if I didn't stay there, just because the owner was superb. and by the way. the hotel looked good from the outside and was right on a fantastic beach

Nice place outside of the crowded area
Pros:

Great location, outside of the noisiest tourist area, but close enough for dining and other options. The staff is very friendly, and the building seems new. The AC in the room wasn't strong enough to cool off the place

Pros:

We, family of five, had a great stay at Nungwi Beach Front. The room was clean, the breakfast was great and the staff was fantastic. Ismail helped us with everything we needed (taxi, excursions, guidance through the village), Rosmary served us really nice breakfast every day (the kids loved the pancakes and I loved the smoothie!) and Tabitha and Janet helped us keep the room tidy. We will be back!
