Perfect stay close to the beach with the kindest host!
Pros:

I had such a wonderful experience here! Raphy was incredibly kind, generous, and always ready to help with anything I needed. He really went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and welcome. The place itself is cozy, clean, and in a perfect location, just a short walk from a very calm and almost empty beach with beautiful sandbanks! The center of Nungwi and busy beaches are a 30 minute walk but it’s also very easy to find transport there.
I can’t recommend Raphy Home enough!

Great relaxation base
Pros:

Super relaxing stay, plenty of couches and hammocks to chill on as you look out over a quieter part of northern Zanzibar. Raphy is a great dude, was super helpful for me with ordering motercycle food from a local spot (Mama africa) and when a local buys it its even cheaper than the already cheap price. First washing machine I've come across in east africa!

Cons:

No complaints it was great!

Relaxed vibes at a beautiful hotel
Pros:

Very nice hotel! There was a kitchen that we could use, a lounge with hammocks, and the rooms
was very clean. Raphy was a helpful host. By foot, it takes about 15 min to the nearest beach, and about 35 min to the main Nungwi beach.

Pros:

Raphy's house is the best place in Nungwi. I spent 2 weeks feeling at home. The room is phenomenal, it has fans, the bathroom is wonderful, the kitchen, the refrigerator, it has a washing machine and a living room upstairs with sofas and hammocks that is a delight. Raphy is your friend from the moment you walk through the door and helps you with everything you need, from ordering transportation, food, anything you need, Raphy with his wonderful smile will help you. the site is 10

Pros:

The room was perfect! It had everything we needed and the fan was brilliant. There was a great kitchen area, well thought through, and someone around all day if you need anything and to look after the property.
The best bit was the upstairs terrace - the hammocks were great to relax after a day at the beach.
Raphy was very helpful and nice to chat to in the everings.
Will definately be coming back if we return to Zanzibar.
