The room and the facilities are very comfortable. The breakfast is rich and delicious. The owner and his assistant, Viktor are exceptionally friendly and helpful in really everything. The biggest help was that Viktor arranged motorcycle taxi (boda-boda) every day to the beach. The price is 3.000. TSH. for one way. Thank you again Jusuf and Viktor for the cosy accomodation :)

This is one of the best places I have stayed at. The room was great (we stayed in the new bungalows - highly recomend), the staff was super friendly and the place in general has a great vibe. We stayed there for a week, we were working remotely so we used their "digital nomads space". The interent worked pretty well 90% of the time. The restaurant had decent options and it wasn't pricy at all.

Clean and cozy accommodation with everything you need - both in the room (hot shower, A/C) and outside (spacious area, pool, sunbeds, and a sleeping net). Breakfast is served in the outdoor area, and the staff was amazing! The owner and staff had great connections, allowing us to book two trips at affordable prices, arrange an airport transfer, and organize transportation from the hotel to various locations, such as Kendwa Beach, and back. The owner also gave us excellent recommendations for the best beaches!

We have never met such friendly and warm atmosphere. All the staff were trying to make our stay unforgettable. The rooms are very clean, decorated in a Zanzibar way, not very spacious, but cozy. The territory is filled with various flowers and trees. There were 2 parties during our stay, but they didn’t disturb us, as all had ended at reasonable time. Highland Bungalows are located not far away (10 min walking) from the best beach in Nungwi. Restaurant is amazing as the prices are very good and quality is high. Every evening we spent there our time, as this restaurant was the best, taking into account quality/prices. If we needed anything, it was enough to inform the staff and everything was done. The staff was ready to help you at anytime. Breakfast was ok: eggs (different way cooked), bread, sausage, fruit, fresh juice, tea/coffee and jam. We would like to thank Britta for such an amazing stay and farewell party! She made our stay so cozy, as if you had been staying at your friend’s home. Incredible! And I would like to thank a woman who works in the morning for her everyday smile and an amazing cake she cooked for us! I will never forget it.
