Milele Beach Resort

We had spent the first part of our honeymoon in Tanzania mainland, doing a safari. When arriving on Zanzibar, we had a very unfortunate event. We had booked a horrible hotel in Nungwi, which risked destroying our honeymoon. We started searching around and found this beautiful boutique hotel "Milele Beach Resort". This beautiful hotel is owned and operated by the italian power-woman Lisa (Isabella) and her nice son Niccolo. The resort is on the beach, so you can go swimming in the ocean or go for long beach walks. There is also a pool, and a lot of sunbeds with traditional parasols/sun covers. You can order drinks and lunch to the sunbeds. Breakfast is simple but good, with omelettes, fresh fruits, juice, pastries, coffee, and so on. However, what is most important is the atmosphere. Lisa, her family and her hotel staff are very kind and they make your stay feel like you are staying with a family. We went scuba diving from a company which is 5 minutes away on foot, and also went to the famous restaurant The Rock which is 15 minutes away in car. Milele Beach Resort offers a sea-view massage spot for couples. There is music one day each week, where a local band plays music and invites the guests to dance. It was very funny, and even Lisa and her family joined the dance because her birthday coincided with the music day. If you are a couple, or newlyweds, or looking to ignite the passion with your beloved one, this is the place to stay. We used this hotel as our base for exploring the island. We highly recommend this hotel, and the owner Lisa, she was the SAVIOR of our honeymoon!

The ocean front bungalow, the staff were exceptional very attentive, more staff than guests, the food was good. The quietness, the ambience Bathroom too dark, no magnifying mirror, nothing going on in the evening. Concrete under the sand in front of our bungalow, banged my toes a few times This was being covered as we was leaving, not sure if this would remedy the problem, but it is not dangerous. But what I would say about this hotel is the Restaurant owner and his wife are very pleasant and spent time to chat, unfortunately she was returning home as we arrived. The owners son again is very pleasent and helped whenever he could, great check in and check out very helpful when the shower was cold. We wrote a review on *********** giving a 9 and mentioned the concret under the sand which was from where it had been left by the wall and other areas - and then had a very intense response from the owner, who I blocked, to say that my comment re the concrete was unreasonable, as was due to storm damage, and that she had lost a booking as people had said they were cancelling as was dangerous - It wasnt dangerous, but was a fair comment . And if she knew it was there maybe you should have sorted it out sooner!! Plus it was most unexpected as the actual bungalows are truly lovely and the view fantastic, so ruined the whole experience. So I would say if you don't put a review she likes then you will get a very intense response.....
