The units at the inn are fitted with a seating area. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and free toiletries, some units at Chokoro House also feature a terrace. All rooms will provide guests with a fridge. We really really enjoyed our stay at Chokoro house and ended up staying longer than intended. The Chokoro house team is very welcoming, kind and professional. The breakfast was excellent. A nice mix of veggies, breads, eggs, and fruit. We never had the same breakfast twice. The room was just as pictured and staff cleaned daily with bug spraying in the evening. We never saw a mosquito in our room. The pool was refreshing, clean, and maintained daily. The location is right between the main road and the beach so either is accessible quickly. We would surely stay at Chokoro house again!

The manager Phil is a really nice guy, always helpful with everything, I could say "the guy who solves your problems, while you are on vacation and enjoying the stay. Stuff are good, I would like to say thanks to one barman Juma. The bungalow is very cozy, and breakfast is served on the terrace. The ocean is a five minute walk. The best beach in the area! Near is the Coccobello bar with music and evening shows. P.S. Best Cockatil - Gin Tonic in MITI

Ir”s my third time in Zanzistar.
Because of the beach, because of Tanzania sun but also because of the people.

Nungwi
Located in Nungwi, on the quieter north east coast of Zanzibar, Game Fish Lodge is situated along the beachfront and features an in-house restaurant, bar and a sun terrace. Free private parking is offered on site. Our stay at this hotel in Zanzibar exceeded all our expectations! The hosts are incredibly kind and welcoming. We arrived almost half a day earlier than planned, but they accommodated us immediately without asking for any extra payment. They provided us with invaluable information about where to go, what to see, and who to contact. Moreover, they gave us the correct prices for local attractions, which helped us avoid overpaying. The room was simply beyond praise! Wow! It was not only cozy but also spacious, clean, and well-equipped. The hotel grounds are stunningly beautiful, with comfortable loungers, tables, and sofas. Everything is spotless and aesthetically pleasing. The beach is literally just a few steps from the hotel. You only need to take three steps to be in the sea. The pool is open 24/7, adding to the convenience and enjoyment of our stay. The breakfasts at the hotel are a highlight. They are homemade, very generous, and incredibly delicious. Guests can choose from a variety of options, including English, American, and three other delightful choices. All in all, everything about this place is done with care and attention to detail, making it wonderfully cozy and inviting. Highly recommended!

We were looking for a quiet place to rest and feel cared. And we definitely found it. This small hotel has everything you need. excellent food kind service. a feeling of home. Attentive to everything, clean and beautiful rooms just on the beach!! Waking up with the amazing views. One evening there was a lovely band with a varied menu of seafood, fish, Italian food. A small and charming boutique hotel. Thank you for a magical birthday and an unforgettable stay
Great location, attentive staff and great hosts Max and his wife. The food here is amazing. And the pool too.
Very spacious room- Genius upgrade! Lovely bed and working air condition. Very close to all amenities. Great hosts and very helpful staff. Amazing, fresh fruit and cooked breakfast, good coffee too!
We booked for 3 nights and ended up staying over 2 weeks! We got lucky to be there at the time the hostel guests formed a really nice group, but when when quieter this place felt like an oasis of peace, relaxation and perfect holidays. The swimming pool is a blessing at any time of the day or night, the breakfast was so delicious, the staff was very kind. The location, hidden from the busy and touristy Paje, was perfect as it felt like coming back home to a comfy place. Very cheap accommodation. Definitely the best hostel in Zanzibar for me!
I thought it was a great location, straight onto a quiet bit of the beach. The staff were phenomenal - extremely helpful and very pleasant. Overall, a nice boutique hotel where I would return.
Amazing little hotel 1 minute to Jambiani beach. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Great location next to superb local restaurants On the quieter side of the beach but only a 5-10 minute to cover everything you'd need. Excellent staff - Carlos is an amazing host! Laundry services super cheap. Breakfast was nice with different amazing fruits, pancakes and fresh juice. We enjoyed it every morning.
