The location was the best on the beach in my opinion. I loved the deck that at high tide was directly above the crashing waves. Sunsets on the deck were spectacular. AC was perfect. The desk management was friendly. Amazing delicious breakfasts. Entertainment at night.

The wifi was weak unless I went outside my room. The bright light for the beach was mounted at the level of my window so at night the artificial light comes into the room. However management said they would put it on the list to adjust the height of the light.

Hotel directly on the beach with lot of shedow,with excellent breakfast on the terrace. The rooms could be better maintained, during our stay we had to change rooms at night because the air conditioner did not work. Friendly staff and the manager who provided us with a taxi as a sign of apology.. But in a future we will stay here again

The air conditioner didn't work and we had to sleep in other rooms at night with small children

I had an amazing stay at Amaan Beach Bungalows. I have been to Nungwi a few times but this is by far the best accommodation I have stayed at. It is great value for money. Good air conditioning in the rooms and also a fridge for cold water. Fast wifi in rooms and public areas. Staff all were extremely friendly- very attentive and helpful throughout my stay. I arrived very late at night and was able to check in no problem. Pool area was very clean. Good variety of options for breakfast. Great view from the breakfast area too- right on the beach and ocean for breakfast with a view! Great location to the beach. Would highly recommend Amaan Bungalows. As a solo traveller I absolutely loved my time here- can’t wait to come back soon!

There was building work going on for 2 days of my stay near the pool- a lot of banging and loud noise which was not ideal for sunbathing. The manager Gilbert did come and apologise on both days which I did really appreciate.

The managers - at the reception and restaurant they were great and very helpful with anything I needed. Great location and close to social life

I was looking for a place with depth, peaceful, pleasant and Amaani is more of a place if you want to be social.

Amaan Beach Bungalows in a great location in Nungwi. It’s in line with a few other hotels like the Z, Langi Langi and Zenobia. So you can walk basically down a sidewalk through all these hotels, basically connected and right off the beach. I feel like this is added value as you can go to the different restaurants and stuff without having to leave the premises. Other hotels soon as you walk out you are bombarded by people selling so I thought this was worth it if that’s what you’re looking for. Beautiful beaches and the ocean is right down the stairs from the restaurant or other entryways on the property. Breakfast was good with live cooking stations for eggs. Staff was great, very helpful.

I initially had a standard room and once I saw it I upgraded to the pool view, which actually had a partial sea view which was great. Some of the standard rooms way on the backside so personally didn’t like due to a small window and not much natural light. But the room was fine otherwise. Nungwi’s is very touristy so people selling and wanting contributions for entertainment is frequent. But they aren’t allowed to sell on the property. But if you’re eating near the Oceanside of the restaurant balcony they may yell up asking something, which isn’t that bad though.

I’ve had the pleasure of staying at this hotel twice in one year, and each visit has been nothing short of exceptional. From the warm hospitality to the stunning surroundings, every detail is thoughtfully taken care of. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, the accommodations are comfortable and well maintained, and the atmosphere is simply perfect for a relaxing getaway. I’m already looking forward to my next stay—it truly feels like a home away from home. Highly recommend!

Our second stay at this resort and even better than last year. Nice bungalow room with lovely well kept grounds with plants and flowers. Room had a fridge and a fan and Aircon which was coolish but not fully effective although it was fairly quiet. Liked the 2 bottles of water supplied daily.. Excellent restaurant even better than last year with the addition of a BBQ grill serving fresh fish and seafood all at reasonable prices. Fantastic staff, from the super friendly cleaning girls, pool man, waiters, waitresses and chefs, all a credit to the business. Lovely big pool, and loved the cocktail happy hour. Perfect location too on the best beach in Nungwi. Liked the private safety deposit boxes, very useful.

Didn't like the very hard uncomfortable bed. Bathroom was very old and needed an upgrade, the bathroom shelf was sloped so you couldn't put anything on it, and the sink was not attached to the floor, so wobbled every time we used it! Didn't like the pool closing so early at 6pm, at least extend usage until 7pm at the end of happy hour, or even better until sunset. Not enough sunbeds and umbrellas but loads of space to put more. Always had to wait until someone left to get one. Everyone was huddled under the trees for shade as not enough umbrellas. Beer was always too warm, sometimes cool, but never cold which was a shame.

The one and only hotel I always stay in! Really even don’t want to put a good review as many people will not come :))) But honestly, everything you need in Zanzibar is just one step around - amazing beach with shadow place, best restaurant just above the ocean, good and clean swimming pool, an excellent service and housekeeping and good rooms itself! Supermarket, souvenir market and local rests are also just in 5 min walk. Abiola and Juma - guys, you are my favourite! Thank you very much for your support and readiness to help during my vacation! Sure I will be back again, don’t forget to prepare a good room as always! Asante sana, Amman beach hotel!

Everything is just wow!

As a first time in Zanzibar, with Amaan Beach Bungalows, it has been easy for us to like everyone and everything there and around. People were so humble starting from security guys till the chefs everyone said HI or Pole Pole with a smile on their face, it's gave us the feeling being safe. The food was decent, and drinks were as well. They have a beautiful beach with white sand and blue water around. Almost every single night has been a show with different thematics, which was lovely. Thanks for everything, guys. HAKUNA MATATA

When we were at the beach, people kind pushed too much to selling their products, but I understand them because they don't have other income, but sometimes you feel like they force you to buy it. After a couple of times telling them NO, they will leave, nobody angry just them disappointed.

The staff was absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming always so willing to help. I felt at ease going to ask for help. As a solo traveler I kept asking for their assistance with taxi's etc and they assisted me each time with such willingness. The room was beautiful, a little dated but the view was what I was after and it certainly did not disappoint. I loved that was a power point outside on the patio so I could sit outside and charge my phone. It was very peaceful but very vibey at the same time, music and people chatting gave it a lively feel which I enjoyed. The room is on the water, it was incredible.

The beach area at Amaan doesn't have their own beach chairs which I didn't like. We pay alot for the accommodation at a beach resort, I think beach chairs on the beach should be a necessity for their guests. The beach chairs on the other side is apparently for rent according to a "beach boy" and he requested I pay tzs 30 000 to him, there is no office or anything that I can go rent them from. I obviously refused and opted to sit on the sand instead. I think more control of the beach boys around the resort beach area would be nice. As a solo female traveler I could not enjoy the beach at Amaan.
