Amaan Bungalows 3* hotel, Nungwi

The hotel is the best location in the north of Zanzibar¸ taking into account low tides and price-quality. Usually on the left side if you walk a kilometer there is a more decent cove, but the hotels there are steeper. By 10 a.m. we swim; after low tide, we walk anywhere; after lunch, when high tide comes in, we swim again. Sun loungers by the pool¸ the tiles are heating up¸ it’s good to walk two steps to the beach. When choosing rooms, take either a bungalow by the ocean or rooms around the pool on the first floor (only on the first floor) or else you can run around. The rooms are large and the furniture is neat. There are always sunbeds because people are always hanging around somewhere. WiFi by the pool is so good that it’s comfortable to write reviews, even Skype can handle it. There is a village nearby where you can buy fruit and alcohol - everything you need for a relaxing pastime. Definitely combine the spice garden with a visit to Stone Town - Turtle Island. We left after lunch, so on the island of shells we walked alone around Stone Town by the light of lanterns. The second coolest thing is swimming with dolphins¸ if you like it of course bathe. (But it depends on your luck - we were lucky)¸ on the way back we usually visit a mangrove grove and a tropical forest. You can visit the islands that disappear at high tide¸ take a boat trip¸ and walk around the islands¸ the food is delicious and for slaughter. (This is in the south of the island). In the west, you can hire a boat to the lighthouse (you can see it) - it’s not expensive; you can buy it and just relax. If you do nothing at all, ships depart daily from the beach along the coast (snorkeling) and are usually packed. Naturally, take it from the local ones; bargain; on the eve of departure, the price drops. Drivers are usually hired¸ so you can negotiate with them directly, bypassing their bosses¸ it will be 30 percent cheaper¸ and more effort. If you know where to go, then take a car; only at each point you will negotiate with the locals yourself (not everyone knows English). Nice rooms on the ground floor around the pool. There are bungalows along the coast¸ but they are more expensive.
