The property is in a perfect location. You are staying about 30 meters from the sea. When you open your window, you can hear the waves. The most beautiful beaches of Nungwi are 5-10 minutes away by foot. Everything that came out of Zava's kitchen was very, very nice in terms of both taste and presentation. What made our stay perfect were the valuable people of the Zava team. Many thanks to the chef and his team who prepared the wonderful flavors in the kitchen. Many thanks to Godfrey and Wesaka who prepared us amazing cocktails behind the bar. Many thanks to Aisha who served us with her smiling face and kindness, and to Victor who never left us alone with his warmth and conversation. Many thanks to Joel, one of the managers of the facility. And most importantly, endless thanks to Liza, the head of the Zava team, for her patience, sincerity, kindness and support in every situation, for giving us this unique holiday experience. This huge team has only one goal: to make you happy. Hakuna matata 😊

There is salt water flowing from the fountains in the rooms. But this is not specific to the facility, it is a general problem in the Nungwi region. We did not worry too much, I am just writing this for your information.

The staff were super kind, attentive and willing to help. The location is 10 out of 10! Not too crowded but with great beach access. The fact that it's right on the beach was a huge bonus for us. Rooms are separated from the restaurant and quiet. Guests have a refill drinking water station that's available 24/7 and the room had a kettle, tea and coffee. Good wifi reception.

The water in the room (shower and sink) had salt water and low pressure which was unfortunate... maybe that's a normal thing in Nungwi, we would've just liked to know about that in advance

One of the best part of this hotel is it's right by the beach. The staff is really friendly and helpful, really warm and always with a smile. The food here is exceptionally good infact one of the best that we had in Tanzania, the seafood is really fresh and cooked well. The breakfast spread is good and filling really loved the avocado toast. Everything that's cooked here is from fresh produce. The rooms are spacious and well maintained. Overall an amazing stay by the beach with the best staff in Zanzibar.

There is nothing not to like about this place.

Everything was amazing. Thank you for our stay! Fantastic location, 30m from the ocean. Very tasty restaurant. So nice and lond staff, especially Pami on the reception and mrs. Lisa were so helpfull. Fresh water you can have 24/7. Everyday housekeeping, the girls are cleaning the whole area for the whole day. When we come back to Nungwi, we will definitelly stay at ZaVa again! Thank you!

Salty water in the shower was little bit uncomfortable, but it is not a mistake of the accommodation, just the speciality of whole this region :)

I liked the location the most it’s very practical especially for a vacation as u can easily walk straight out of ur bed to the beach and even have breakfast with an amazing view alongside the sound of nature and birds chirping around (it wasn’t annoying the sound tho lol) the staff are super friendly and accommodating to ur request and needs also the food is great and delicious honestly it felt like a 5 star restaurant bc the effort they put into the design of ur place and taste is just chef kiss

Nothing really I can think off it’s good for its price maybe the locals that approach u allot which is fine but I can’t really help everyone and ur there to relax as well but other than this I am grateful and happy with everything.

Very comfortable and clean. Slept like a baby except for Friday because of a nearby party that lasted till 2 am. No mosquitoes, they offered to spray any-mosquitoe daily but I didn't even require on any day. Very cold AC, but the weather was good, I didn't need it much, there is also a fan in the room. Bathroom was ok, warm water was always available. Location is absolutely amazing, located in the most clean and beautiful part of the beach, very near to activities and good restaurants with good variety of food. The hotel restaurant (Zava Resturant) was very beautiful, beach front, delicious meals, wifi connection. Staff were remarkably helpful and nice, they made our 4 nights stay as comfortable as possible. Thank you very much Mr Shafee and Mr. Iman for your good welcoming and for always smiling.

Not much really. I had a very pleasant stay. Only: The room needed more light. Had some trouble with WiFi but the manager helped me to fix it, then it was ok.

Relatively basic rooms in a small relaxed resort. Tasty a la carte breakfast, and the restaurant and sun beds on the beach in front of it made it a lovely place to completely relax and chill.
