The owners Nana and Haluk are very nice and try to satisfy your every need. Satisfied with the staff, the cleaning and the food in the restaurant. We did a big tour of the island from the hotel and it was an unforgettable experience and good memories. Thank you and good luck for the future!

Our stay at Carpe Diem was exactly what we wanted, thanks to the very nice and friendly owners - Haluk and Nana. They provided us with the most important information, advice, and even suggestions on how to make the most of our time there, all at affordable prices. They also advised us on how to interact with the locals and how to select the tour offers that are truly worthwhile. This was the best service we could have received. The room was very spacious, the bed very comfortable, and the breakfast/meals were delicious. The terrace is the perfect place to retreat from the sun when you need a break and a coffee/cold beer. 😊 We are very grateful that we met Haluk and Nana, who were available at any time for any request or discussion. We highly recommend Carpe Diem. Thank you very much, Haluk and Nana, for everything! 🤗

Nothing could compare with the hospitality of Louk and his beautiful wife 🫠 Me and my sister had a great time and we really enjoyed our stay in Carpe Diem! Thanks again for being so helpful anytime we needed!!! Greetings from 🇬🇷

While my room was nice, it had a mold issue, and the toilet in the bathroom needs fixing. It would be beneficial to have the room cleaned on a daily basis.

The owners are attentive and welcoming. The place features a small cozy yard, proximity to the beach, daily breakfast, a fan and WiFi.

If you want Beachfront it’s not this but it’s only a few mins walk from the Beach. I wasn’t looking for this so to be in the village was fine.

It’s simple comforts, when you arrive in a new country a warm welcome and comfortable surroundings is exactly what you receive here.

No AC. But it’s not a big deal for me.

Great hospitality makes me feel like home

Its a shame I wasn't able to spend more than 8 days as I would want to stay longer next time with Haluk and Nana and the team but sadly work calls. So nothing I didnt like about my booking.

Haluk and Nana were amazing hosts who took really good care of me on my first solo trip. Haluk took me around Nungwi and introduced me to locals and facilities as well as sharing facts and tips about my stay in zanzibar. The staff were friendly and food was great.

The owners of this place are just wonderful, they are warm and welcoming, we felt very safe and loved to stay here! The food was great and also the dessert is very recommendable :) We loved all the animals walking around, every chicken has her own story. There were also 5 kitten and their mother, it was great fun to watch them run around and play together! We would recommend this place to everyone going to Nungwi!

Carpe Diem is the place to stay in nungwi. Haluk and Nana are just amazing hosts! We got so many tips and help for our stay, it was super friendly of them. Also the place is really perfect, the rooms are big and clean. We also had dinner and the aubergine salad is really tasty as well as the avocado juice! Last but not least, Haluk helped us to find a good transportation to the other side of the island. Everyone is so friendly at Carpe Diem.

The hosts. Very welcoming and friendly including their staff. It was so close to the activities we had planned

The hotel is very close to the beach, zoo, aquarium and restaurants. The owners of the facility, Haluk and Nana are very friendly and nice people. Haluk showed us around, gave us a tour at the beach and arranged a snorkeling tour for us. Nana assisted my wife to buy some souvenirs. My little daughter became sick and they were very helpful to make her get well. The rooms are clean. The hotel staff are welcoming and smile all the time. I can't wait to revisit the facility.

The place is very cute and amazing value for money. It's also super close to the beach. Haluk was amazingly helpful in showing us around the neighborhood, sharing tips on do's/don'ts, and arranging (sometimes literally walking us!) to the activities like swimming with turtles and going dolphin spotting. Highly recommend if you're looking for an affordable, comfy and friendly stay!

Be aware the rooster can be quite loud in the morning so you may want to wear earplugs. 😊

We stayed at Carpe Diem for nearly two weeks and it was a home away from home. Delicious breakfast, very good WiFi, reasonably priced beers, friendly owners and entertaining pets. It's in a quieter part of town but we liked that, and it's just a short walk to the beach.

Well, the two owners chain smoke a lot, which is certainly their right. But i wish they didn't do it when sitting right next to guests in common area. Second hand smoke is obnoxious.

Price was good , location too.
