Was a bit worried due to the negative reviews but I can’t say anything than this was very very good. Comfortable beds, basically on the beach (the pictures ain’t lying) and the staff were very helpful and kind. Negatives: It’s a dry hotel. No alcohol. But you have amazing restaurants just 50 meters. I also thought they were difficult to communicate with before my stay. No answer on my email to them. They responded on WhatsApp after a couple of days.

O quarto era muito bom, banho bom, comodidades (café, água, chá, toalhas de praia/piscina). Estacionamento. Café da manhã muito bom, com uma vista linda. Equipe atenciosa. O hotel é excelente e bem localizado (a única ressalva que faço é que não vendem bebida alcoólica, aos contrário dos hotéis vizinhos). Vale a pena voltar a se hospedar, lugar é lindo!

Beskrivelsen er misvisende mht Ocean udsigt, det er kun fra altanen, og ikke fra værelset. Meget overrasket over at alkohol ikke var tilladt. Det fandt jeg ingen steder i beskrivelsen. Når jeg holder ferie vil jeg gerne have adgang til en øl og vin. Snackbar.. det kan man ikke kalde det.

Smiles was lovely. Comfortable rooms, ok breakfast, very nice dinners. Always fishing boats to watch when the tide is in. Great swimming beach when the tide was coming and going. I would recommend this small non alcoholic Beach Hotel. Lots of shopping and restaurants just outside their gate. Security was very good.

Too long to get any drink or food from the restaurant - a lot of employees but not efficient, when ordering a drink it took 40 minutes to get something which is very long when you are thirsty, same for the food. No service existing on the beach, neither at the swimming pool. Basically you are ok in the hotel if you do not need anything…

Niet waard voor de prijs. Prive strand was goed en restaurant de strand maar weinig keus.

Top Hotel, das Beste in Nungwi. Super Lage, freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.

Very good service and clean! Quite and good beds.

Great place to stay for a holiday! - Nice and clean room with an amazing view - Friendly staff - Great housekeeping - Perfect location - Breakfast is good, fresh fruit/juice, omelette and all kinds of other warm and cold options. Would definitely recommend to visit.

Maten i restaurangen gick inte att äta. Frukosten var katastrof. Så när det regnade som värst, hade det varit det enklaste alternativet för att få mat. Vi var hellre utan mat tyvärr, stranden var inte alls som den ser ut. Kendwa är mycket mycket finare att bo på. Vi hade otur med försenad regnperiod, men nej inget jag skulle vilja åka tillbaka till. Vi gjorde många fina utflykter, men vädret var bara med oss till 40%

Fantastic 3 star hotel in Nungwi! Great location in a quiet part of Nungwi. Private beach area with no salesmen. BEAUTIFUL outdoor area! Very kind employees from Reception to Spa, cleaning and Restaurant. Rooms are spacious with sufficient room for 3 big single/queen beds and luggage without it feeling crammed. Simple interior but we were only in the room for sleeping and it had good nets thst was prepared each night. Did not see one single mosquito inside. Bedsheets clean but with a few permanent stains. No issue for us as felt clean. No noticed electrical fall-outs - I think they have a generator. Only awareness point is that the door lock is very simple: from outside you lock with a small padlock (but there is a safe in the room). From inside there is a simple slide lock (toilet door style) that barely locked in our room - a simple push would have opened the door. Given guard on the premises I felt safe with just a suitcase in front of the door but preferably the lock had been a bit more solid. Does not change the conclusion: AWESOME hotel. Hope to return another time.

Staff was attentive, friendly and polite , love the cleanliness of the room.

Great Location and with friendly and attentive staff

The staff were super friendly. They spent between 45 minutes to 1 hour cleaning our room each day. They would fold our clothes in the wardrobe, line up our shoes and toiletries. I have never experienced cleaning to such depth 10/10. Pool was lovely and it was safe and quiet. Staff genuinely could not do enough. If you are half board food is a set menu for dinner. Only criticism would be sometimes the water would go off for a short period of time. There were the odd power cuts for a few seconds at a time.

Also enjoy the idea of a bicycle for anyone to use.

We enjoyed our stay! Definitely recommend

Hotellets beliggenhet er virkelig fantastisk, med en nydelig strand og utsikt! Solsengene er komfortable, og de store parasollene gjør det enkelt å slappe av i skyggen. Dessverre var servicen, særlig i restauranten, en skuffelse. Med et navn som «Smiles Beach» hadde vi forventet en mer vennlig og imøtekommende atmosfære. Gjennom hele uken vi bodde her, opplevde vi svært lite smil og gjestfrihet fra personalet som serverte oss frokost og middag. Dette stod i kontrast til den generelle vennligheten og imøtekommenheten vi ellers opplevde fra lokalbefolkningen på Zanzibar. Frokosten var også ujevn i kvalitet, noe som gjorde måltidene mindre hyggelige enn forventet. Alt i alt har hotellet stort potensial, men servicenivået, spesielt i restauranten, må forbedres for å gi gjestene den opplevelsen de håper på.

Das Frühstück ohne Eier und ohne Käse fand ich nicht gut.
