Our stay was extremely good, accomodation, food and staff is amazing. Only problem, and a big one, is a lady called Anna, she is an Assistant Manager. She was extremly rude to me and my fammily. Other staff members confidentially said to me that she is like that many times, not only with guests but with them as well.

Great stay

Fantastic and responsive staff, excellent food, very nice view from the room overlooking the sea, comfortable room. What we liked less: signing the bills for each drink or meal even though we were all inclusive... boring... lack of entertainment and atmosphere, and when there was entertainment they started too early, while people were eating and couldn't enjoy it, and they finished too early (9:30 p.m.) to be able to enjoy it after eating... and the fact of not being able to take advantage of the all inclusive on the day of departure between the noon check out and the pick up time, asking us to pay for drinks after check out when we spent 10 nights at the all inclusive price is a bit mean

Stayed in a sea view room which was fabulous, great outlook and easy assess to the beach area. Room was spacious and clean. The staff were so friendly and service was really good, a little slow at times but you’re on Zanzibar time so you get used to it. There was a good few places to venture out to around the hotel and even walking in the village was lovely! Do be prepared to be approached every two mins by the locals but they are all very friendly and do eventually stop and leave you to carry on with your day. Overall we loved our stay in this hotel and would recommend highly to anyone thinking of booking.

I had a wonderful stay at Turaco. The room was nice, there was food variety, the staff were generally nice, and the ambiance was chill. But I would like suggest few things that could make the experience even better. 1- Improve the Wi-Fi connection, especially at the public places as the connection kept on dropping. 2- Hotel resorts in Nungwi shall come together to clean the beaches and remove the sea weeds at least once a week. 3- improve entertainment include more outdoor games and music. 4- Let customers know in advance that juice and soda are not included in diner to avoid any surprise bills.

Nungwi Turaco resort is an above average property with friendly staff, located right on a lovely beach and convenient to shopping and restaurants. The rooms are a bit dated but overall they are clean. The resort is next to a club that plays loud music although the music usually stops just after midnight. The staff really tries to make your experience favorable and very kind. The all inclusive food options are average. Overall, I recommend this place for a decent vacation.

The resort nickel and dimed you for everything. Keycards, having guest stop by your room. The beach was wonderful. If you are coming with a spouse or romantic partner then wonderful. But absolutely do not come here if you are coming for any good vibes or party environment. This place is strictly for people who want to be low-key and quiet. No vibes whatsoever.
