Lovely little place to stay. Good price and really nice breakfast (included in the price), of fresh smoothie, fruits, bread and eggs. The staff were lovely and super helpful. Showed me how to get to the beach. The location is less than 10 minute walk from the beach and close to the main road. The owner even put on a free dinner for us one night of bbq fish, which was lovely! The property itself is super nice, fire pit, lots of trees, and hammocks! The dorm room is nice and spacious with comfy beds (apart from the pillows!). Wifi was reasonably good! Would recommend to others to visit :)

Considering it is newly opened it is doing very well. Just a few minor things that could improve the stay which the staff are working on such as mirrors in the rooms/bathrooms, hot water, comfier pillows! Maybe a sign outside in the street to help locate the property as was hard to find. Other than that it was lovely!

Amazing hostel! I spent a couple of nights there, and I felt really welcome. Taha is a great owner and the first day we were day he offered a fresh fish grill to the whole hostel. Location is perfect, only 10 mins walking from beach and Nungwi center and 2/3 mins walking to reach local restaurants and shops. Dorm was clean and bed was the most comfy one but showers and bathroom are outside the dorm itself. They even provide you with 3 different towels! Breakfast it was included and it was really rich (toast, hot dog, fruit, eggs)

A Hidden Gem in Zanzibar! I stayed at The Tropinest during my trip to Nungwi, and I couldn’t have been happier with my choice! It’s a small, peaceful hotel with a gorgeous green garden that feels like a perfect escape from the busy tourist areas. Even though it’s not right on the beach, it’s only a short 6 minute walk away, which made it super easy to pop down for a swim without all the noise. The rooms are cozy and charming, especially the garden view ones, and I loved how quiet it was at night. It’s the perfect spot for someone looking for relaxation. The staff were super friendly and always there to help with anything I needed.

We really enjoyed our two day stay at the Tropinest Bungalow! The staff makes a huge effort from the first moment you arrive such as leaving flowers on the bed , giving fresh fruit and refreshments. The rooms are clean and have a really cool patterned roof. The shared bathrooms were regularly cleaned and had locks on all the stalls. The breakfasts were delicious and included eggs, toast, platters of fruit, coffee and fresh fruit juice. The best part was the weekly dinner they host and all the guests are invited! They had a great spread of food, music was played and it had an incredible vibe. Overall, the staff, especially Taha, go over and beyond for their guests, even walking them to town to show where the cheaper mosquito repellent is and the place has a wonderful, friendly and peaceful atmosphere.

Having to leave the place.

super affordable and great location. You pass Pole Pole Hotel and walk only 5 more minutes to the beach than from the expensive hotels/ bungalows. Not too easy to find - best is to get dropped off at Pole Pole reception and use the back gate to enter the property. We’ve also been locked out after a night out as they lock the gates at night for safety reasons lol. So better let the staff know when you stay out long. Breakfast is very good!! We extended our stay for 3 more nights. They just re-opened it, so I’m sure there’s more to come!

No mirrors in the rooms so better bring one (:

A little jungle in the heart of Nungwi! It's a place where you can truly escape from the outside surroundings. The owner and staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming. Taha, the owner, was a great help, offering valuable advice on places to visit and recommending a great spot to enjoy delicious, reasonably priced seafood. The breakfast served here includes the best fruit smoothies ever! Plus, Taha is a DIVER, so if you're planning to go scuba diving, make sure to ask him for recommendations or assistance.

The garden is really beautiful, the rooms are clean and spacious, it’s a 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach. We had such a good stay at the Tropinest, we arranged our scuba diving via the tropniest and a massage and got a good price for both. The staff go above and beyond for you here and it’s really appreciated. We had a free BBQ dinner one night during our stay which was so lovely and all guests are invited so it’s such a friendly and welcoming vibe.

Nothing!

The location is great, with short distance to the beach. The staff is very nice, every person I met. To my surprise they offered me an upgrade. We had a nice, free welcome dinner... with very tasty fish. They also helped me join different atractions. I traveled around Zanzibar to different places and this is my favorite place. Thank you for making my stay unforgettable :)

You need to invest in the mirror, at least in the bathroom..girls/women need it ;)...and fix the bell at the gate, please.

What I Liked: The Tropinest offers a peaceful, green garden environment that’s perfect for unwinding, away from the usual hustle and bustle of Zanzibar’s more crowded spots. Its location, about 600 meters from the beach, strikes a balance between serenity and easy beach access. I loved the variety of room types, including the cozy double garden view rooms and the shared spaces for a more budget-friendly stay. It’s an ideal spot for those looking for tranquility, with friendly staff and a warm, inviting atmosphere

The property is set in beautiful gardens it’s very peaceful. I stayed in the female dorm and the bed was comfortable snd the toilets/ shower rooms were clean , there were four of them.. Also the breakfast was nice and the guys that owned your store were amazing super friendly and very helpful.
