Amazing food, friendly stuff, nice location!!! Perfect place for relax! Hotel is built in traditional african style, not modern, but still very cosy. Owners will help you with organisation of anything you will need, so you realy do not have to worry about a thing.

Everything was incredible and made our trip a dream! The property’s location is amazing and the sea view room we booked was perfect. From the warm reception and great service, to the welcoming + very helpful + attentive staff, the clean rooms, big pool and great food for breakfast, lunch and supper (buffet of course), everything was awesome and made our trip most enjoyable. Picture this: have your afternoon coffee on a cushiony swing right on the beach with a gentle sea breeze on your face as you stare out into the crystal blue ocean and bury your feet in the powdery white sand. Thank you Mustafa and Ahmed for your hospitality and for being kind enough to let us check out late because our flight was late in the evening.

A small beautiful Hotel with a very private atmosphere, nice breakfast, 3 minutes away from the beach and Sophia that took care of us as we were the only guests in the house! She was amazingly kind, extra attentive and very professional, a really five stars service that turned our stay to an extraordinary experience.

The staff is really really kind and always with a smile on their face! The breakfast is really good and the dinner we have every night is even better! Everything to try but the fish is really really good and the chef is really really good! The room was really clean, with perfect functioning air conditioning and fan! Nothing to say about Ondo House, we had a really good stay! In 1 minute by foot you are at the beach (that have the best sea of the island, really beautiful beach) and in 5 minute you are in the centre of Nungwi village! REALLY RECOMMENDED!

Abdalla is a friendly guy who really cares about the guests needs. He helped us a lot with different things (find the way to the beach, organizing a tour, calling a taxi,...) Also the other staff was very friendly and always there when we needed something. Our room was very big and clean. The breakfast was delicious so you can start your day right :)

I totaly felt in love with that place. AMAZING for solo travelers, memories-collectors, open minded and young spirit people. That place offers everything what you need like a backpacker - good facilities, free laundery, amazing staff and the cheap and affordable price. We also went for a dolphin tour for really good price (people on our boat paid 2 times more. If I return to Zanzibar on day, it will be because of that place. Thank you!

    Charming Boutique hotel lovingly designed down to the smallest detail. Wonderful rooms, large balcony, great breakfast and dinner. White powdery sand beach only one step away - quiet and clean at all times. Amazing owners. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Arranged for me everything. Service level: 10++/10. You come as a stranger and leave as a friend. Recommendation: 100%
