Mnarani Beach Cottages

Had a great stay- staff are all accommodating and super friendly, food was great, location was perfect and the view is unbelievable Looking forward to visiting again soon

Wonderful! The place is unpretentiously beautiful. The buildings and all the features blend in wonderfully with the surrounding landscape. Both our rooms (yes, much unexpectedly the owner came personally to ask if we would like to upgrade to a sea-view room) were charming and had a unique flavour. There is nothing commercial about this place, it feels homely and allows one to feel the culture of Zanzibar. The menu was lovely. The food gets a thumbs up. Staff: so friendly and willing to assist at all times and always with a smile. Overall our experience was lovely, being well-travelled I can objectively say that this place made me feel as though I was in my destination country without first having to explore the other cultural attractions. P.s. the tours on offer at Mnanari are a must-do. Another BIG thank you to the staff and especially the owner for fantastic hospitality.

Outdated hotel. Beds uncomfortable. No beach to swim in front of hotel. Service was nice.

Great beach front views. Good budget hotel. Food was a little awful and was a bit far from the main town so it was hard to get other options especially in the evening. Staff a lovely.

Just an average experience. A beautiful location and great facilities, but had to have my room sprayed twice for bugs. Food was just ok. Tried for 5 star presentation but the flavours didn't match. Staff tried hard but language was an issue. Pre-booked an airport pick up which didn't show up. Overall a disappointment.
