Fabulous stay, great location and everyone super nice! We took trips and the staff/owners couldn't have been nicer. The image is from our Whale Shark excursion, I love it! Such a moody day but we reached and found these beautiful, gentle sea giants. 🤍🖤🤍

I absolutely loved my stay at Basecamp and can’t wait to return. The hotel is beautiful and the service of the staff exceptional. They can’t do enough to make guests feel comfortable and accommodated for. The rooms are stunning, overlooking the beach and the pool and restaurant areas are a great place to relax. For divers there’s a dive shop within a minute’s walk and for non divers alternative excursions from the hotel. A wonderful place to stay for some quiet time on a white sand beach.

I really enjoyed my stay here in the tent zone! Just steps away from the ladies' bathroom which was well-maintained and always clean. The tent is as described and was perfectly comfortable for my stay! I feel that it may be a little small for two, but it was perfect for one. I felt very safe as a solo female traveler! The restaurant and relaxation area are nice. Staff were lovely, from the restaurant to the diving center. The best part is that there are several places to get a drink or dine nearby if you'd like (I recommend Pamela's on the beach, just two minutes walk away!) I would definitely consider staying here again, good value for money!

We had an amazing stay at Juani beach bungalows. Truly cosy, comfortable, very clean, surrounded by greenery, with direct access to the sea and a super nice walk to the centre of Kilindoni. Food was delicious, staff lovely and Musa himself was an excellent caring and informative host. Most recommended!

Some nice different options for various tours in the marine park. Not really a beach there, and the little sand available is occupied by working fisherman; either side is mangrove. There is a sandbar further out you can visit. Better to stay outside to avoid the marine fees and only pay them when you need to enter it as nicer beaches elsewhere.
