"The property is very centrally located from the beach/ stone town and the new city. Nothing was more than a 20 minute walk. The roof top bar/ restaurant was a nice perk especially during Ramadan when many places are closed for the fast. It is an older property, so the rooms aren't very modern as the showers/ bathrooms could benefit from an upgrade. Staff are very accommodating and friendly. "

10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (23 reviews)
"A wonderful eco resort! Cute bungalow's with compost toilets. We slept with all the windows and doors open to enjoy the ocean breeze. staff and food fantastic. Good snorkelling. Coconut crab night walk was fascinating. We climbed up the lighthouse and walked around the island on low tide - saw heaps of starfish and crabs! We also relaxed in the swinging day beds and read our books. 4 nights was a lovely amount of time if you can…but lots just came for 1 night."

Top Chwaka Hotel Reviews

Mizingani Seafront Hotel

Mizingani Seafront Hotel

4/10 Poor
"This hotel is old and tired. The welcome was, at best, lukewarm, and the service was generally not good. The room was not well cleaned but there was good air conditioning, which was very welcome. Furniture was old and beds uncomfortable. The phone in the room did not work and other guests were allowed to yell at each other at 3am in the communal areas! Breakfast offer was good. Restaurant was awful - service was poor, food was almost inedible, card machine doesn’t work! They do not sell alcohol and don’t name this in their description. They do offer “mocktails” which are an absolute laugh! Don’t waste your money! Swimming pool was nice but the chairs/sofas around the pool are very dirty. Would not recommend it."
