7-Day Family Holiday at Nungwi Beach Hotel We had a fantastic 7-day family holiday at Nungwi Beach Hotel. The experience exceeded our expectations in many ways. Food: Excellent quality with a wide variety of options each day. One evening even featured king prawns, which was a highlight. Entertainment: Live music during dinner added a great atmosphere and made the evenings special. Staff: Everyone was friendly, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. Accommodation: Our room was spacious, clean, and very well maintained. Beach & Sea: Beautiful setting with minimal tidal movement – perfect for relaxing and swimming. Activities: We went on two dives at the local reef, and the experience was even better than we expected – great visibility and marine life. Overall, we had an amazing time and would definitely recommend Nungwi Beach Hotel to others looking for a memorable beach holiday.

e recently spent 9 days at a hotel in Zanzibar and wanted to share a few highlights and helpful observations for future travelers. When we first arrived, the room we were given had a very strong moldy smell, which was a bit of a letdown—especially if you’re sensitive or have allergies. Thankfully, the hotel staff quickly moved us to another room, which was much better. That said, if you’re particularly sensitive to damp smells, it’s something to keep in mind. Beyond that, the rooms were clean, the swimming pool was lovely, and the overall facilities were well maintained. We were on an all-inclusive package and were genuinely surprised by the variety and quality of the food. Even after 9 days, we didn’t find it too repetitive, which is rare! The drinks were fabulous and beautifully presented—definitely a highlight of the stay. Weather-wise, July brought a lot of clouds, and the sunshine was limited. While not ideal for full-on sunbathing, it’s obviously not something the hotel can control. What truly made our experience memorable was the exceptional staff—incredibly polite, helpful, and genuinely warm. Their hospitality added something special to our stay and left us with very positive feelings overall.

Adjusting to 1 star for the false response from management. There was nothing immediate about the response to the room next to us flooding. There was never an offer to change rooms. The offer for points (that we never received) and comping our laundry came the next day after my bf had to seek out a manager and wait 20 minutes for someone to assist him. The manager did offer us a free night - knowing that we had pre-booked a car to our next adventure. Customer service is not what the hotel cares about- just bad reviews. We wanted to stay at a nice Marriott property to end our stay in Africa. What we got was a flooded room from a problem in adjoining room, constant power outages, and eeh food that was horribly overpriced. We received no apologies or assistance for the room being flooded - not a thing - even after having to call 3 times to get them to come look at it. Overall - a huge waste of money and a blotch on Marriott’s good name. Pick almost any other hotel in this area and you will pay less, get better service, food, and responses from the front desk.
