Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, full-day security and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Free private parking is available and the villa also provides bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area. We liked everything, the facility is beautiful, excellent view, even better food. Sabrina is very kind, whatever we asked her she managed to get. All the other workers are very kind, an added plus is that you don't have to go out to restaurants, you can buy everything at the accommodation, the menu prices are very affordable. It is very clean and peaceful.

Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, pool view and a patio, Safaya Dream Villas-Adults only is located in Nungwi. This beachfront property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides full-day security, luggage storage space and currency exchange for guests. The place is beautiful, very luxurious, with great attention to detail, and spotlessly clean. It looks exactly like in the pictures, and the bed is extremely comfortable. The sea is really close to the room. Ramadan, who manages the place, is very attentive, kind, and always willing to help. We asked him for something and he came right away, even though it was his day off (which of course we didn’t know). He is incredibly helpful and pleasant.

Boasting air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, Villa Andreá is situated in Zanzibar City. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. Our host was friendly (edit: until she read this review and became dishonest and insulting) and generally available. She checked on us frequently and offered her help. The house and garden are spacious and well-decorated. The kitchen is well-equipped. The location is quiet and secure. Edit : Im sorry that you don’t accept any review which is not 10 out of 10 without calling your guest lier. I firstly gave good (7) but after your response my experience with this property and its host became disappointing (4). I informed you about the water in the kitchen on August 14th at 8:12am. You answered me at 8:14 “…I’ll pass by a bit later to show you how it works” assuming we misused the washing machine. I checked out on August 15th. The leak was reported more than one day before check out and not “a few hours before” as you claimed. That’s a shame we are not authorized to attach screenshot of watsapp conversation. It would show clearly who is the lier here. About the staff, you speak only about the cleaner which was effectively announced each times. The staff for the garden, the swimming pool and the roof came unannounced each times. That’s why I wrote “MOSTLY”. I understood that it didn’t disturb your other guests by reading other reviews that’s why I wrote “to our liking”. I can’t be more accurate than that. I’m sorry that you find my remark about outside activities (full moon party, quad, horse riding, sunset dhow cruise…) irrelevant but I disagree. In my opinion it’s connected to the property and especially its location. Most activities are located in Nungwi and Kendwa, it’s 1h30min far from the property and will cost 50$ by taxi each times. It’s my mistake to not check locations before. I just reviewed this to avoid others to do the same mistake. Lastly my comment about the beach is totally accurate, the property is “far from the beautiful beaches…” I never spoke about your advertisement or suggested anything about it. Your advertisement is totally accurate.
