3-Star Hotels in Zanzibar North, Tanzania

We were family with 2 adults and 2 kids (9 and 11 years old). Three bedroom is big enough that two kids slept in one bad with no problem. Everybody are so welcoming and nice, Eduard from reception is great. Breakfast on the terrace with overview on ocean is beautiful. House keeping should be more quiet in the morning with trolley. Only comment we have are for cleaning lady who never left all 4 towels in the room, or 4 bottles of water, or toalet paper. Every day something was missing. Swimming pool is clean and nice.

“Canary Nungwi Hotel is a true sanctuary of luxury and charm, offering an unparalleled experience in one of the most beautiful locations. Surrounded by the turquoise waters and pristine beaches of Nungwi, this hotel captures the perfect blend of natural beauty and refined elegance. The atmosphere is both vibrant and peaceful, creating a haven where guests can enjoy lively moments as well as serene relaxation. Each room is meticulously designed with modern amenities and unique touches to ensure ultimate comfort, offering breathtaking views that make every morning unforgettable. The warm hospitality of the staff, the exquisite dining options, and the attention to detail in every corner make Canary Nungwi a destination like no other. Whether you’re seeking adventure, romance, or simply a place to unwind, this hotel promises a stay filled with unforgettable memories and unmatched tranquility.”

Location was great, if you look for a small authentic place to feel real charm of the tropical paradise. The view from the Ocean view Suite was amazing. White-sand beach with the ocean entrance was just in some steps down. Tides were calm enough and didn't make serious problems - you can swim smoothly most of the time. The room was clean. The hotel's restaurant was good and there were some ones around. The hotel's staff was extremley friendly and did their best. It was a real pleasure. Special thanks to Noela from the restaurant team - she is a stunning girl who does a great job. Despite the room we had (Ocean view Suite) was clean and was being well cleaned every day, it extremly requires rennovation. The most of furniture and room/bathroom equipment was very old, not properly working and must be changed. The beach life near the hotel was quite active and noisy with a ”fish market” at about 6am every morning where locals bought fish (in fact, it can be even interesting if you don't sleep) and with a DJ who worked at the restaurant next door. It was not an issue for us but can be a problem if you need silence.

My partner and I, stayed here for 10days. It was such a lovely hotel, our rooms were so spacious, made us feel like we were home. The views from the big wide balcony were just so beautiful, we would seat outside, listen to music while watching the stars and the moon, the beach waves was just what we needed to hear before bed. The staff were so lovely and welcoming. The manager was just lovely welcoming and engaging with customers. Most of all the food was the best we had in Zanzibar, we tried other restaurants but not up to scratch. We decided to only eat at the hotel lunch and dinner. If you like a quiet place with a beach front, not noisy and not too busy this is the place. You can commute by car to other beaches and places outside the hotel but sometimes you just want to relax at the hotel by the beach. You can learn kite surfing outside the hotel and arrange other activities as we did from the hotel We miss it already. Do not look nowhere else

A little friendly paradise on the beach. I travelled with my two teenagers. Good food and fresh fruit every morning. Very nice atmosphere and staff. Music in the evenings. Clean rooms, mosquito nets. The staff helped me to book a driver from the ferry and boat trip (snorkelling, we saw dolphins!)

The second time I rested in this hotel. I rarely write reviews and unfortunately for the first time I didn't manage. In price/quality ratio, this is objectively the best option in Kendwa. Here are mainly the expensive fives, the price of the tour from 450-500 to. Holiday in Tropican cost us much cheaper and there is a decent difference in safari and food. In fact the same beach, ocean, cafes and restaurants. The room is mainly for sleep and it fully fulfilled expectations. We lived in the garden building, a view to the garden. Last time on the beach, in the superior room on the second floor. Both arranged the one and the only garden more on the square, there is a sofa. Breakfasts are included in the room cost, take place in the restaurant at the beach corps. Always fresh baking several species, hot for choice, fruit, omlet, juice, tea, coffee. Here you can eat very decently, work until late evening. They understand Russian. Delicious soups and of course seafood, which pleases not overheated. By the way, Tropicans have their territory on the beach with lying and guard, although the hotel is budgetary.. For us it is a very important moment. Finally went to Safari, it was a long dream. Take from the hotel guide Kelvin. Very kind guy, not bad speaks Russian, on organization of questions no. Good cars, air conditioner. Ranger on safari too very liked, in half a day managed to see a lot of animals. Even didn't expect! But it was a little short of time to enjoy. I didn't want to leave at all. If we get to Zanzibar for the third time, we'll definitely go to safari for at least 2 days. Our 10-day rest flew as a moment, brought home the luggage of warm solar memories. Thank you for a wonderful rest! Good luck and prosperity to the hotel and all staff! Ekaterina and Olga.

We had a great time! The ocean is next to the hotel. The rooms are very clean and there is hot water in the bathroom. Delicious breakfast in the morning. Safe - the area is guarded by a security guard. We recommend!

Снимали отель в последний момент, поэтому не удалось выбрать все даты нашего путешествия. Оставалось 2 дня, решили, что отель нормальный, осмотрев номер накануне заезда. Кровать с балдахином от комаров, душ с бортиком, кондиционер, холодильник. Холодильник сразу не работал - дверь не закрывалась. Его заменили, но другой тоже не работал. Кондиционер сдох на второй день, чинить его никто не собирался. Благо, что работал вентилятор, это немного облегчало ситуацию. Завтрак включает в себя: фрукты, сок, кофе, омлет и блин. Кофе и блин в первый день зажали, на второй принесли. Салфеток на столах нет, надо просить. У отеля есть несколько лежаков на пляже, но они все заняты. Есть парковка под пальмой, но после неё всё лобовое липкое. Теперь об отношении. Попросили переходник, его обещали найти, но забыли. Искали поздно, не нашли, помогли евроштекер засунуть в розетку. Не работает холодильник - у нас проблемы с напряжением, другого не найдём. Кондиционер сломался - низкий уровень электричества, мы ничего сделать не можем. Из-за неработающего холодильника просили убрать шампанское в холодильник отеля. Советовались официанты с владельцем, тот разрешил, но не нашлось места в холодильнике, пришлось нести в свой первый отель. Чекаут написан в 10, просила до 11:30, разрешили до 11, хотя номер никому не нужен и убираться в нём не собирались. Номер в первое утро никто не убирал, хотя песок по всему полу - нет коврика у двери. В номере нет мусорок, шампуня, мыла, ни стульев, ни вешалки. По одному полотенцу на человека. Они все в пятнах, как и постельное бельё. Ну, и туалетный бачок протекал и круглосуточно раздавалось кап-кап-кап. Отель не рекомендую даже непритязательным туристам. Хоть он и близко к океану, вы будете разочарованы.

Inexpensive great hotel with cheap prices in the restaurant and great service👍 Waiter Emanuel is very cheerful and helpful. Will help you improve your vacation in everything!

We stayed at Tamu Tamu for 7 nights and everything was brilliant, the grounds are well kept and the rooms are spacious. The staff were fantastic and would go above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Breakfast was lovely and there was plenty of choice for all dietary requirements. It is a small hotel but it was preferable for our group. It is in close proximity to the beach, which is stunning.

This place is exactly what we needed. We wanted to escape our busy life in Australia and go somewhere peaceful. This place is set in the trees, close to a private beach and only a short walk to the main more busy Nungwi area. We loved this because we could escape it or join it depending on our mood. Highly recommend this place and can’t wait to go back.

The hotel is in a breezy location with quite nice rooms, simply furnished but our room needed some TLC. The cleaning was good, and the staff were friendly but the food was really rubbish. The food let this place down. Very African, many things not available, and the buffet was disappointing. At breakfast you could see what was fresh, usually one item each day whether mandado or croissant or a bread roll. Coffee was instant. The chef on the BBQ was burning and frying out the meat and seafood which upset me greatly. No wine choices, often only one or two types of beer. No ice one day. I started to going elsewhere to eat at the hotels nearby. There is no beach access at high tide, and be warned this is not a place for access for anyone with a disability as hard coral and urchins underfoot.
