This place is fine. The beach is beautiful and the owner is accommodating. However, the rooms had an unusual smell that didn’t go away. The restaurant had a wide variety of food but none of the things we tried were great. Just passable. The pool was well kept and the security guards were great at keeping the solicitors away (there were constantly people approaching us on the beach but the guards kept them away on property). It was very difficult to get to the hotel but they do offer a shuttle from the airport that is a better price than the taxis.

Relaxing stay in Nungwi

We had a very relaxing 6 nights at the Double A. The hotel is not the fanciest place in Nungwi, and could do with a little bit of a facelift, but the rooms we’re comfortable and very clean, and the staff were exceptional. We would definitely visit again.

Overall the staff was very nice. The property is nice. There’s only a few rooms that actually have a beach view due to the very narrow piece of beach in front of the hotel.

Highly recommend this hidden GEM right on Nungwi beach hidden along with the other many hotel that are much more expensive and less personable. We easiley booked EXPEDIA all inclusive with airfare and breakfast, however they also have packages with other meal times. Their customer service when communicating or asking questions by email or WhatsApp was great. They have rooms on the ground floor and up 3 stories with beautiful views of the ocean or the gardens. Aprox. 60 min from Zanzibars internationl airport this hotel named Double A Nungwi Beach is gated and secure. You are greeted with smiling faces, cool hand towels that is refreshing, and handed a glass of tasted hibiscus juice. Ready for hotel tour and then shown to our room. Clean and always has hot water. Lovely decorated and the bed is displaying the beauty of their gardens. Astonishing views from the bar and restaurant and pool area. Inclusive breakfast was very good, with mutliple options to pick from. Eggs any way, waffels, freshly melt in your mouth warm donuts and pastries. Fruit, cheese and everything else breaksfast. The menu for lunch and dinner is expansive and you can tell Chef Rashid puts his passion into all of his meals he prepares. Food flavour is big for us and the way he prepared all of our dishes was palatable for a king and queen. There are also indian and vegetarian options. We felt very special with each bite we took. They provide shuttles and tour. Read my Tumbatu island tour review.Asante sana

terrible accomodation and no interest in issues

Actual Nightmare ... they charged the same as a 4 star hotel but this is really like a trailer park, aircon took 8 hours to cool the room and didnt work for most of the time, rooms are next to a generator which is very noisy, terrible smell from bathrooms like sewage, cheap mosquito net and bad lights ...good location on the beach but accomodation horrible and restaurant and breakfast v sad

I was impressed by the professionalism amd the servoce from the Manager and Staff. I encountered a problem becaise the description of the room (sea view) is misleading..The view was from the balcony and it was only a partial view. I had high expectations of being able to see the sea from my bed. That was definitely not possible. However, the dound of the ocean was a delight. I went to bed and arose with this soothing sound. The hotel os located on a womderful beach that os not too crowded.There is shopping and stores within walking distance of the hotel. You can walk the beach snd run into other hotels and bars. However, I discovered meals prepared by Double A were delicious. Please don't judge the food by the breakfast which was mediocre. Again, the staff did what they could to accommodate. Overall, I enjoyed my stay,, thanks to

We had an 8 night stay at this lovely resort. Our rooms were on the beach and beside the pool. The rooms were fab and were cleaned every day. The food was good. All excellent. However, the main selling point of this hotel is the staff. We had wonderful friendly waiters - Emanuel, Mohammed, Erik, Abdul and Said - who provided excellent service. We would highly recommend Double A.
