Uhuru, the owner of this place, was very welcoming and any request was fulfilled within minutes. Bungalows are very clean, swimming pool as well. Lots and lots of space for chilling and relaxing with the view of the sea. Chefs were creating interesting and tasty dishes from Swahili kitchen. Staff was very friendly as well. This place is great for animal lovers as they have lots of cats, dogs and monkeys. Ahsante Sana!

This is a lovely resort, right on the beach. The pool was clean and well kept and food of a good standard. Our stay was made even better as we were given a large house for our exclusive use, despite paying for a double room, but the standard chalet rooms were extremely comfortable.

The only thing to like was location. Based on the was we were treated, i would never recommend this place to anyone. There are ants and insects in every room, food is terrible and cold, run by men that dont even shower/wash their clothes( and they’re the same ones cooking and serving). I saw one of them breaking ice with his bare hands and putting it in someone’s cocktail. If you are black, regardless of nationality, just be aware that you will be served after all the white people are served.. and your room will have no hot water. White priviledge is real even in useless places like this. iI strongly recommend the neighboring resort ( Pakachi Beach Resort) with a pier and an island. Their food is great, hot, its clean, service is wonderful and staff are clean and friendly.

We had a pleasant stay at a white sandy beach in a quite region between Paje and Jambiani. The hotel offered excellent meals in a daily changing variation. We loved the nice stile of the bungalows with the relaxing leisure areas with the views to the different blue colour sea and the possibilities of nice long walks at the white sandy beaches. Our 12 nights on Zanzibar in this hotel were very relaxing after visiting Tanzania and Uganda.

Funky, low key beach resort near Jambiani. We saw several rooms, and all were very clean, although somewhat basic in terms of in-room amenities. Most have a large furnished private deck. The grounds and pool were very well-maintained. The atmosphere is very informal with lots of cool and cozy spots to relax along the beach in hammocks, lounge chairs and bed swings. The only downside is that the ocean's not ideal for swimming due to exposed rocky areas at low tide. But the pool is great! The food in the restaurant was excellent, and there are other resort restaurants within easy walking distance.

Great deal! Very nice, and relaxing pool. The hotel grounds were kept clean- I loved the hammocks, and lounging around areas. The room was spacious. Breakfast was standard (eggs, toast, sausage, juice, coffee/tea). Great staff! The food and drinks were a little over-priced- compared to other places in Paje. The beds weren't the most comfortable, but the hotel is a great price for what you get.

The hotel is very affordable and has a variety of clean rooms. The pool is a nice touch and has a plethora of pool chairs, hammocks, and swings around it. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The wifi is not that great but just as good as anywhere else in East Africa. The occasional ants will scurry across your floor but no worse that anywhere else. The adjoining restaurant is good and they change the menu for every lunch and dinner (though some of the items reappear depending on what they have). The beach is right out front of the pool and restaurant and makes for good swimming at high tide or nice walks on the sand at low tide.

Mbuyuni is a quiet place - nothing to do but relax which is what we were looking for. Staff were very nice and the restaurant was excellent and inexpensive. You have to order your food in advance but this worked well as we found restaurants in Jambiani took one hour to prepare food anyway. Room was very big with decent bathroom.
Not a big swimming pool and when the tide goes out, you have to wait to swim as the whole beach is behind a reef.

We have enjoyed our stay at Mbuyuni. Service could be improved as well as the breakfast. The front sea bungalows are the one to stay in. Spacious and romantic. The others are smaller and have no view. Be ready to spend a lot of money on taxi if you want to move on the island and from the hotel. Advise, rent a car, it s' cheaper.

Pool very nice, staff very helpful, restaurant very good for evening meals and breakfasts.
Room comfortable but bit sparse, no towels and bit shabby and shower lacked power.
Good if on a budget.

Mbuyuni Beach was a very nice place to relax, enjoy the view and the beach. The lounge area was the highlight. In addition to the comfortable cushions to relax on, there were different activities including board games and pool that allowed the family to enjoy quality time together and enjoy the view.

Mbuyuni Beach Bungalows are right on the beach between Paje and Jambiani. You ideally need some transport if you are going to visit other areas of Zanzibar. The secluded location is perfect for a quiet week or two away and the staff are great. Friendly and attentive. No air con in the room but for the price I can't fault it.

As a volunteer working with an NGO, I was seeking solitude and respite and not the typical "tourist - cram in so much as you can in a day" kind of vacation. Mbuyuni was exactly what I needed. The salt water pool is good for swimming when the tide is out. There was not a sign of sea urchins or jellyfish I have experienced on other trips to other beaches in Zanzibar. The white sands beach is great for relaxing and there are hammocks and chairs and other things you can lounge on. There were few hawkers or touts and I never felt hassled. The food was great for the price point and the menu changes every day You do have a long delay between ordering and receiving food but we just grabbed our mobile devices and took advantage of the free wifi while we waited. The portions are huge and the seafood is delicious. The staff was always friendly and available to answer any questions we had. The room was simple but everything worked and was clean and ready for us. I will definitely return for another stay next time I am in Zanzibar.

Loved my stay an Mbuyuni. It is rustic, simple and relaxed but also has all you need for that tropical beach holiday. The staff are great, friendly and helpful, the food is tasty, and the cocktails - well, the best I have ever had! All this in addition to the obvious benefits of vast expances of beach and sea and sun, off course. If you are accustomed to 5 star western treatment, this may be an adjistment for you. For me, it was perfect. I felt right at home. Best value for money ever. I would go back in a heartbeat.

I booked this hotel for a post-Kilimanjaro trek. Appearances upon arrival at this hotel are deceiving; the entrance drive is a bit cluttered and is not terribly inviting. Do not let first impressions cloud your judgement. I was glad I didn't. The atmosphere at this hotel is relaxing and inviting. If you are looking for excitement - this might not be the place. If you are looking for a decent hotel with excellent staff and a good menu, then give it a whirl.
