Highland Bungalows

The property boasts a pool area, spacious rooms, and friendly staff. Guests appreciate the cleanliness and convenient location near the beach and amenities. The breakfast includes a variety of options and company of cute kittens.

Really great place: clean and comfortable room, beatiful garden with a lot of plants and swimming pool, reasonably good WiFi, very good breakfast - you can choose between several options (fruits, eggs, sausages, jam and butter, pancakes, coffee or tea, fresh juices) or take them all :) short walk ~10 minutes to Nungwi beach. Host allowed us to check in earlier and even to check out later + we get a bonus breakfast. Disliked · Road to the beach isn't very nice (but it is safe at day or night) and you can pick a taxi if you wish. Sometimes late night noise coming from disco in the neighborhood.

Avoid this place. Rooms vary in standard, our friends' was basic but fine, whereas ours had dirty marks on the wall, some questionable electrical safety, 3 sockets not working, leaking sink in the bathroom. The shower is powerful and hot but when put on the holder it just shoots at the ceiling so must be held in your hand. Beds comfortable enough. The pool itself is nice but the pool area is a bit tired with dirty tiles and burst covers on the sun loungers. Breakfast is made fresh to order, average but does the job. Strangely you need to pay to have water at breakfast?! The location is much further from the beach than stated on listing. 15 minutes according to Google Maps but the roads are dirt tracks full of holes, mud and puddles so it takes much longer. The local area is quiet during the day but seems to be a party place for locals at night. The icing on the cake is that the hotel bar plays nightclub level music till 3 or 4am every night. The owner of the bar was extremely unhelpful and rude when we asked for it to be turned down. He told us just to check out if we didn't like it but unfortunately we had already paid for our whole stay. Nightmare.
