“The beachfront location grants unhindered views of the Indian Ocean and a direct connection to Nungwi's allure. While the Italian family ownership brings a distinct Rimini vibe, the fusion of African and international spa treatments caught my attention, a worthwhile pursuit after a day exploring local crafts. I noted the proximity to the fishermen village and beachfront bars, setting the stage for cultural immersion amid Zanzibar's famed sunsets.”
