Bagamoyo Spice Villa, hotel in Nungwi

Bagamoyo Spice Villa is a hotel located in Nungwi, 2 minutes' walk from the beach. It features rooms with furnished terraces and garden views.

We have just stayed for 3 weeks in the excellent Bagamoyo spice villa in beautiful Zanzibar. It has a beautiful garden and clean airconditioned rooms. Thank you so much for looking after us! Mr Square gave excellent guest attention. Massive thank you to the restaurant staff Islam and Esta who provided everything with a smile and really made it a home from home. Breakfasts were plenty of fruit with toast, crepes, juice and fresh cooked eggs however we liked them including Spanish omelette. Dinner in the restaurant was plentiful with lots of choice. When we went on trips breakfast was provided early. The room had 2 double beds, aircon, fan, walk in shower, fridge and kettle. The beach was less than a minute walk from the gate. We has excellent trips to Stonetown, the blue lagoon, Nacupenda sandbank and snorkelled at Mnemba and Tumbatu islands seeing dolphins jumping next to the boat. On the day trips we had a lobster, seafood, chips and fruit lunch. For trips I would highly recommend Nassor (+255 777 380 255) from the Union building on the nearest beach. He always made sure we were looked after and if we went in a taxi without him he would meet us at the hotel to show us the taxi and meet us again when we arrived back to make sure the trip was good. If you like good coffee Victoria has a great coffee shop 1 min walk towards the square. And we would highly recommend the Blue Sea restaurant on the beach - great for sunsets and fabulous food! We found Zanzibar very safe (violent crime is virtually unheard of even in Stonetown) and the people very friendly and passionate about their beautiful island. The Tanzanian and Masai traders/always had time to chat as well as sell souvenirs. They loved hearing about snow! Please respect the locals tradition and support their trade - there are many bargains to be found with a bit of friendly negotiation. No one ever seems to get upset and the sayings Hakuna Matata and pole pole (slowly, slowly) aptly describe the vibe here.

    The beach and the resorts are beautiful. People are amazing!

    The beach and the resorts are beautiful. People are amazing! This situation with the Masai though its literally unbearable. They don't know when to stop bothering you. I am there to enjoy the sun and the beach not to be harassed by them, after I kindly explained that I don't wish to talk, have a good day, they literally follow me and don't leave me alone. This ruined my whole experience!! Every second, every single day.

    Nungwi used to be a small fishersmen's town, but it is now buzzing with bars, hotels and restaurants and lots of activities to do. If you want to go on a snorkeling trip, or have other fun activities. Then this is your spot. I appreciated the beautiful ful of the ocean - with the clear blue waters and the fishermen working.

    Nungwi was a very pleasant and happy part of the island. The locals are very friendly and always willing to help and go the extra mile. The beaches are clean and the difference between high and low tide is very minimal. You can swim at all times of the day.

    Nungwi is a good place for a traveler.

    Nungwi is a good place for a traveler. The place has a lot of trees around it which makes it more beautiful for someone who loves nature. You get to breath fresh air. However, the roads are not well maintained which makes it worse when it rains, but I think it is part of the experience. As you get to see how good the boda boda guys are at riding their bikes.

The resort is spectacular: wonderful decorations, lovely pools, superb food and drinks. I cannot say anything slightly bad about our experience here! This was our first time at Zanzibar Star Resort and i can’t wait to come back again. I HIGHLY recommend trying the for an absolute carefree and perfect holiday. Well done to everyone working at the hotel, you all deserve congrats for your splendid service.

    I wanted to share my wonderful experience staying at Veraclub during our family trip to Zanzibar. The location was nothing short of magical, as it was conveniently close to restaurants. The amazing team there was always ready to assist us in English, thx Marco & Paola 🙏They went above and beyond by recommending fantastic places to eat nearby, making our dining experiences truly memorable. The icing on the cake was the beautiful beach accessible during low tide – a true slice of amazing Zanzibar right at our doorstep.

    The overall reception, drop off area, pool, restaurants are lovely. The access to the beach is just a hop and skip away. That too to one of the best part of Nungwi beach. The hotel location itself is at the end of a dead end one way narrow road. There are two other hotels at this junction. The hotel is about 5 min walk to nearby shops (for money exchange, sim card etc). Staff was very polite and welcoming.

We had little hibiscus messages and arrangements every day Golf carts to cart you around They went to a lot of trouble for Christmas Eve dinner, and all the kids had a gift in the bedrooms - a Zanzibar water bottle Certain water sports for the more active were free

    Very nice staff, pretty room and good food. Also the pool is nice. Little extra: when I relocated just 5 minutes from the hotel, someone from the staff went with me to carry one of my bags. I really appreciated that. I was alone at Zanzibar but I felt comfortable at the Canary Nungwi hotel. Someone from the staff even showed me where the beach was, so I could find it myself the next time.

    Zuzana and Barack are great hosts. The house is new and built in a traditional way. Breakfast is freshly prepared by a chef and it had everything we needed. 2 min walk to the beach and several restaurants. The property is pretty close to a mosque (which is normal in Zanzibar) and you have earplugs in the room (quite useful). We would come again!
