Smiles Beach Hotel

Location is perfect, next to restaurants and a few minutes walk from shops and bars. Beautiful rooms with all necessary amenities. Our only problem was the restaurant menu which was very limited, no beef or lamb at all and also very limited quantities. In breakfast, even if it was early nobody replaced empty trays. Moreover there was no kind of cheese or charcuterie!!!!

Nice Hotel,staffs very friendly ,very clean and quite rooms. Recommendation 100%

Thank you Smiles for a wonderful stay. We travelled to Zanzibar as teachers from Dubai in our half term and could not have been more pleasantly surprised with our stay. Having read previous reviews, we weren’t sure what to expect but from the moment we arrived, we were so impressed with everything. The care and customer service of the reception team was amazing and they went above and beyond for our entire stay, Mohammed and Ahmed in particular were amazing and the kindest souls we have come across. The facilities were clean, well maintained and managed and in comparison to other hotels in the surrounding areas, ours was by far the nicest and quietest. There was security at all times which was comforting being right on the beach. Every morning for breakfast, the team were super friendly and accommodating. Despite it being quite basic, whatever we requested we were given - we enjoyed fresh crepes every morning. All in all, ignore the terrible reviews of people being so picky for the price they’ve paid. We would highly recommend this beautifully peaceful hotel to anyone wanting to stay in Nungwi. We are used to living luxury, high standards of living in Dubai but we were not disappointed by this place. An incredible week away in a stunning place!

One word - tranquil. Certainly recommend if you are interested in peace and quiet with private beach resort outset. Staff were approachable, good selection of food and service. Walking distance to Nungwi beach. We had half board option for meals and was good selection of food always.

The property is nice, clean and in a great location on the beach! Our favorite part of the stay was the service provided by Aldo. He made us feel so welcome to the property. We had a member in our party who wasn’t feeling well which happened before our stay and he was so genuine and did everything to make her more comfortable. The beds were cozy too.

We enjoyed our stay here. All rooms overlook a sandy garden / beach with sun loungers. Easy to go swimming in the crystal clear waters by this beach. There is also a swimming pool if you fancy a change from the sea. The rooms are large with a very comfortable bed and good bathrooms too. We were on half board and found the food very fresh and tasty, especially the fish and seafood dishes. Would have been good if you could buy some beer or wine from the restaurant to have with the meal. Only negative was that the service in the restaurant was sometimes very slow and the staff seemed confused about their tasks.
