As pessoas são incríveis, o quarto é rústico, mas muito funcional e combina com a energia do local. Café servido na varanda e muito carinho de todos. Destaque para Salma, uma querida. Pastagens!

Everything to be honest. All the staff were smiley and courteous, what ever their role they couldn't do enough to help. The aspect of the property was amazing and having breakfast served personally on your terrace outside your room was a great touch. The mattress was very comfy and the bathrooms were large. If in the area again I would stay again, 100%.

All the staff were lovely. Really friendly and helpful. The breakfast on our balcony was brilliant. The best bit though was for my husbands birthday. The bed decoration was the best I’ve ever seen and then the reception staff asked him to come back for a gift which was a coconut with sparklers. They all sang to him - so sweet v

I don’t think there’s a better place to stay in Pingwe. This place has the most dreamy views you’ll ever experience in Zanzibar. The staff is impeccable! The bed and breakfast was just perfect. Honestly, everything in me wants to gate keep this place! I’d also want to share more but I also don’t want to give away too much to maintain the pleasant element of surprise. Please, trust your gut like I did and book. Best decision I’ve ever made on a hotel.

Usedvanlig hyggelig personell. Vi følte oss veldig velkommen. Ok leiligheter med god utsikt til strand og hav. God frokost som ble servert på verandaen med utsikt over havet

The property is very quiet and located right on the beach. Beautiful views and friendly and accomodating staff. The breakfast is wonderful and delicious. Only downside to this property is that there is not 24/7 staff at the front desk and obtaining extra bottled drinking water from the hotel is not easy. Overall would highly recommend.

I booked on short notice and was very happy about my choice. I had a heartly welcome and the staff was super friendly and helpfull with every request I had. Very nice room and balkony with ocean view. They even bring breakfast directly to your balcony in the moning as soon as you get uo and sit outside. Highly recommended. The only negative thing I recogniced was the amount of plastic trash along the entire beach as well as on the Island in general. This of course has nothing to do with the hotel, and they actually try to incentivice people to leave no trash at the beach and even offer free beers for people who collect trash and bring it back to the hotel for proper disposal.

It’s a lovely spot in a quieter/less built up area of the island. There are options for restaurants nearby (including The Rock restaurant, only a couple minutes walk down the beach) although not as many as some of the more developed areas. The hotel itself is lovely and clean. A nice breakfast is served right on your balcony which has amazing views of the water. No issues with the wi-fi. The staff were very welcoming. There is no A/C; we were a bit warm with the fan windows open but not unbearably so. I wish we had had an extra night or two to stay; would definitely come again!

Notre séjour s’est très bien déroulé à Shanuo Beach. Cet hôtel est encore plus beau en vrai, la plage est vraiment à côté et le paysage est magnifique. L’équipe de Shanuo Beach est juste formidable, ils sont là aux petits soins et nous aide lorsqu’on a besoin d’aide. La chambre dans laquelle nous avons séjourné ma sœur et moi était nettoyée tous les matins. Le petit déjeuner était délicieux et nous sommes très satisfaites de la qualité de professionnalisme de cette équipe. Je tenais à remercier toute l’équipe et la manager de l’hôtel car en dehors de la beauté de l’hôtel, la gentillesse des employés, la propreté, le calme et les petits déjeuners délicieux ont rendu notre séjour très agréable.Tout était fabuleux. Nous reviendrons une prochaine fois.

Close to the beach. At low tide difficult to swim

For our 2 night stay Pictures did not show the extreme tightness of the standard room. Also upon late check in there were no accommodations for the lack of running shower water. I truly appreciated the upgrade to a triple room however the shower head in the upgraded room also needed to be changed for water flow. There were spider webs on the side of bed frame which shows a lack of thorough cleaning. The space for triple should be standard. However Salma and the staff on site were of great help. Thank you.

Bungalow très sympa au bord de l eau le personnel est adorable c est un coin peu animé mais situé au pied du rock restaurant quasi . Coin idéal pour aller voir de belles étoiles de mer aussi . Je recommande pour une étape de visite de l île .

Mélanie • Couple Trip

La chambre est très petite avec des petites fenêtres, pas beaucoup de lumière extérieur, pas de climatisation, juste un ventilateur, c'était étouffant pour dormir. Sinon la literie était bonne et le décor sympa. Petite terrasse devant la chambre avec un petit déjeuner servi tous les matins. Pas beaucop de choix niveau nourriture. La vue est incroyable, la plage juste en face et le personnel très gentil et avenant.
