Absolutely Everything!! Paulette our host was more than superb. Nhema attended to our every desire. We cannot rate this villa highly enough. We stayed over Christmas as all the reviews said the food was amazing, and we can only say it was way beyond our expectations!! We celebrated with a performance from the masai and then the most wonderful 5 course Christmas Dinner that we will never forget. Company and food was just so special. Our rooms were so tastefully decorated and had everything that you may have forgotten to pack. Hotel was always spotless. Staff were so polite and efficient. Swimming pool was perfect too as the beach can get busy. All l can say is that if you are looking to stay here, you will leave with happy memories and a promise to come back. Paulette and your team...a huge THANK YOU.

Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a housekeeping service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The property was at an excellent location and Roxana, the host was super flexible and helpful. She advised us on many many things from the airport transfer to arranging tours and restaurants to visit as well. Even though breakfast was the same every day (toast, eggs, fruit salad) it was always substantial and tasty. The beach is very close with lots of places (hotels, restaurants) to visit and even spend the day at. There is a dog and a cat at the property both being extremely friendly as well. We would certainly go back here if we were to visit Zanzibar again!

    We stayed in the Villa and it just perfect in every way. The place is beautiful and surprising spacious it also has its own pool. The food was good and the staff were very accommodating. We had a wonderful relaxing time. You can walk the beach for miles without seeing anyone, maybe we visited during a quiet time which did not bother us at all.

    We stayed 5 nights at the Sunny Villa and it was a really great choice. It was calm and peaceful, the staff was always helpful, especially the nice lady at the bar/restaurant who took great care of us. Rooms were clean and spacious, more than enough for 2 people. The programs organized by the hotel were also great, I recommend the Prison Island - Nakupenda - Stone Towns 1 day trip which was wonderful.

    Fantastic location of the hotel in the middle of a local village at the beach. Perfect host with the warmest welcome you can imagine and the way every single staff members treat you makes you feel king and queen. Amazing white beach in front of you with the magical sound of the waves of the Indian Ocean makes it a paradise and a must-stay when you are on the beautiful island of Zanzibar

    Room No.3 has the best sea view, east oriented so you are everyday woke up with a sunrise. The kitchen is absolutely top notch, we tried few another in other parts of Zanzibar, nothing competitive at all. Staff is super friendly, they give you a feeling of relax, happiness and chilling vibe. Definitely go visit the village on quads and buy some school accessories for a local kids. They will be grateful.
