Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomThe location was at the corner of Nungwi so it was much quieter which is ideal however the beaches were less pretty
Everything! I had the queen room, it was excellent in terms of size, aesthetics and the jacuzzi in the balcony. The hotel bar has more food options than the restaurant onsite. The staff have been excellent with their service and hospitality!

United KingdomNot close to main action in Nungwi but able to get a cheap tuk tuk. Breakfast alternates daily between a la carte and buffet and I preferred the a la carte menu. Rooms are a bit small and dark.
Nice layout with 2 pools - fresh water and salt water. Breakfast is good. Rooms are decent.

United StatesThe beach boys and souvenir sellers were relentless. Not the hotel’s fault at all, but it got to be too much, so we spent our last day just relaxing at the hotel instead of heading back to the beach.
We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel — it was lovely, and the staff were even lovelier. The room was comfy and shower provided lots of hot water & great pressure. The food and drinks on-site were delicious (highly recommend the guac and poke bowl!). THe resident cat was an added bonus. The hotel is located next to the Nungwi Aquarium and the beach and you can easily walk to them.

NetherlandsDefinitely recommended. We had a really good time. Our room had a small issue but they offered us an alternative one. When we asked if we can have a single bed instead of a cot/camp bed they replaced it to accommodate our request. They helped with arranging our excursion to Mnemba Island where we had a great time. Food was great as well both in the hotel and in the restaurant next to the beach. Staff were really friendly and helpful and ready to assist you every time. Nice surprise upon our check out were the coconuts that they gave us for our way. We left with some really nice memories

This is a beautiful boutique hotel with excellent facilities and a great breakfast. Location opposite the beach is amazing but you wouldn’t know how close you are from how intimate it feels once you are inside the walls. The beach bar serves excellent food and offered a great honeymoon package for us including a decorated table by the beach front, prosecco in the room and a couples massage.

South AfricaI didn’t like that there wasn’t a fridge in the room as the previous place we stayed in was cheaper in price and had a fridge in the room which was very useful for us in our previous stay.
The breakfast had a buffet on Wednesday and Saturday which had an abundance of option and fresh goods. The rest of the days you could choose two breakfasts from the restaurant on the resort which was so yummy! The two pools are beautiful and spacious.

United KingdomI think a fridge should be provided in the rooms without the charge, other than that nothing.
The room was beautiful, the jacuzzi was really lovely in the evenings, it was clean, breakfast was very nice, staff extremely helpful, the tuk tuk was very handy when wanting to explore and very affordable in comparison to taxi prices. I would definitely come back!

United KingdomNothing but the area is a little walk to the busier area and when the tide is high the back streets are a bit scary as no street lights but it’s still very safe.
Really beautiful and green hotel. Lovely staff and great breakfast. The restaurant on the beach front is a must, great food and lovely staff.

United KingdomWould have liked a mini fridge in the room to cool down drinks. Sockets were also very difficult to use with UK plugs, Our plugs would not go in easily, and was very stiff. Location is a little away from some of the main nungwi elements but we enjoyed the short TukTuk ride to town - some tours left from the beach a couple of minutes away from the hotel which was nice.
Pools were very nice to swim in and a lovely environment, although the greenery made it difficult to easily find the sun during our visit. Room was clean, nicely decorated and spacious, bed was large and comfortable (altough a tad hard). No issues with connection or hot water. The balcony hot tub was fantastic and a super addition. Food was nice - evening meal definitely better at the beach front as there is more selection. Breakfast selection was alao good. Loved the presence of kitties all of which were very polite and enjoyed some love. The waitress was also incredibly friendly and welcoming. Getting a tuktuk or taxi was easy and quick. All staff were helpful and friendly.

EgyptThe insects! It’s a huge problem. We really liked the blend of the greenery into the place its really really good however you need to somehow control the insects especially near the restaurant and the pool because it was pretty annoying and disgusting.
- I liked the blend of the greenery areas and picine - We had the jacuzzi room 9, It was exceptional - the jacuzzi was private however the upper neighbor could see us from the window - the food was OUT OF THIS WORLD!! The food was soo sooo gooddd
