⭐ “I had an amazing stay at Hostel 197 in Nungwi – it was 100%! The hostel is very clean and well maintained, with comfortable beds and a relaxed atmosphere. The staff are so friendly and helpful, always making you feel welcome. The location is perfect, just a short walk to Nungwi beach and close to restaurants and shops. It’s also a great place to meet other travelers. For the price, it’s unbeatable. Definitely one of the best hostel experiences I’ve ever had – highly recom

We had an amazing time at the Rafiki backpackers hostel. The owner is very friendly, energetic and helpful. His cares a lot for his guests! The house is located near an almost private beach which is lovely. The room is also good and spacious enough, with a nice bed and clean toilet and shower. Would highly recommend.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    I’d say that greens is a great option if you want an accommodation in Nungwi that’s budget friendly. It’s close to the center and close enough to the beach. As a female solo traveler I’ve always felt safe in the neighborhood, even at night time. Do not hesitate to chose Green !
