location is in the north of Zanzibar, meaning quite far to visit the whole island and particularly the south part

The managers are really kind, very calm location, near everything (beach, restaurants, bars...), nice swimming pool, size of rooms is perfect, excellent and rich breakfast from 7.30 till when you want!, restaurant open the whole day and food is tasteful, possibility to schedule transfer from and/to airport with an excellent driver and a nice van, clear communication from the manager to detail all possibilities...

Babalao Bungalows was exceptionally good. Alp was an excellent host. He was extremely helpful. The food was amazing. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The accommodation was very artistically designed with fabulous art works all over. Alp really knows how to run a good ship. The property was 300 meters to the beach and close to shops and an ATM. The food was fabulous definitely the best in Nungwi. I can definitely recommend Babalao to anyone coming to Nungwi.

The staff was really friendly, the place was peaceful and really close to the beach. They have a nice restaurant and plenty of different restaurants near the beach.

The water pressure in the room was very low and the blanket for the bed was small for regular sized people. We notified the host when we left, and he told us he will fix it.

Nice and cozy community space with a swimmingpool, sunbeds, a bar, restaurant, sofas, tables, boardgames and more. The staff was sweet and helpful. The host Alp was dedicated to being available and helpful throughout the entire day.

I had bedbugs and woke up two days in a row with rushing on my skin. This is the only thing why I’m giving one less star

The stay at Babalao was amazing! Since we arrived Alp welcomed us and gave all the information about the place and surroundings. We also met Yahya, another lovely manager from the place that was on every detail as well. He helped me with some medicine I needed and made sure we had a great stay. The food from the restaurant was delicious🤤 10/10. Breakfast was a different plate every day (I would personally prefer more like a buffet where you can choose but overall was good). They offer tea, coffee and water for free whenever you want through out the day. Pool, music, board games and nice environment to chill and enjoy your holiday. Everything you need is there

This place is an absolute gem! We had the most fantastic few days at Babalao, and enjoyed every second of it. Alp and Yahya and the rest of the staff really made us feel at home. Super cozy environment, nice little swimming pool, and an in-house restaurant with great food! We ended up having most of our meals here, just because of the fact that the food was THAT good. Can especially recommend the seafood wrap, it's to die for! All in all, after four times in Zanzibar, this is definitely the best place I have stayed at in Nungwi.

The room was nice and clean. The food is fair. The owner himself is an interesting guy who is a conversation person. Some of the worker aren't a good English speaking.

I do not recommend going on the swimming with dolphins excursion, which was very sad and cruel towards the dolphins and starfish.

The place was excellent with friendly service and a good location. I felt at home and didn't want to leave. I highly recommend it to everyone.

In the vicinity of the bungalow, there was road repairs going on and that caused a lot of mud due to rain. Access was a bit difficult but fortunately I was provided with an umbrella.

Nice place, nice atmosphere, staff very helpful and very accessible to beach and other activities. Enjoyed the snorkeling organized by the manager of Babaloa and good places to eat around the area.

There is nothing we don't like. Everything was perfect!

We spent 13 days at Babalao Bungalows and the experience exceeded our expectations. The owners were always available to give great advice on anything we wanted! The food was very good. The location is also great, the beach is a 2 minute walk away. We really enjoyed our stay here - quiet, cozy and welcoming. The rooms, common area and pool are truly amazing. Max and Elena and the staff were also very friendly and helpful. We already miss the place and are considering going back soon!
