We really liked the host. He went above and beyond to make sure our stay was as pleasant as possible, and he helped us book several tours, like a trip to mnemba island and one to Jozani forest. He was available at any time and was very helpful. You can tell that he cares a lot about his business and the guests. The location is alright, with just a short walk to the beach. The room we got was very spacious and there was hot water in the shower. Breakfast was good, with lots of fruit and eggs of our choice. Based on value for money I’d give it 11/10.

Crazy man is such a generous person. Throughout our stay, we felt like his goal was not to make money out of us, but simply to make sure we had the best possible experience in Nungwi. For instance, he offers very cheap snorkeling tours, free laundry services, cheap drinks (cheapest we've had in Tanzania), etc. He also cooked for some of the guests. The breakfast was awesome! I know that many comments mention that the hostel is far from the beach, but we actually appreciated this. If you stay close to the beach, you only see tourist resorts. Walking 20 minutes to the beach every day allowed us to experience a more local side to Nungwi too. Overall, this was one of our best accommodations in Tanzania! Thank you Crazy man!

Leafy home stay environment close to the beach and little local shops. Spacious property boasting a yoga Shala and lots of relaxing places to chill. Locals outside are quite persistent about trying to sell you something. Good experience on Nungwi.
