    This was a great initiate property just a short walk to the beach. Zuzana and Abarack were phenomenal host. Believe the reviews about the jam. It is AMAZING. She helped us set up our airport transfer and Mnemba trip. We’ll definitely stay again when we come back to Zanzibar

    Nothing we did not like. Thanks again zuzana and barak.

    Fantastic and very welcoming small property with a limited number of rooms. A great feel of safety and privacy. A few steps away from the beach. Place is run by very attentive hosts, helpful and I think sincerely caring. Amazing breakfast prepared by the hosts and taken at shared tables by the kitchen. Endless supply of fruits, homemade jams, and many goodies. Feel like being welcome in a private home. Nicely equipped rooms with all that’s needed.

    My parents and I had a very nice stay at Zuzanu house, all the staff were very friendly and welcoming, rooms were very nice with lots of character and I loved the fact that we were in the middle of a village so we got to experience how the locals live and 2 mins walk from the beach. Breakfast was very nice and fresh everyday. If you are looking for a personal tour guide I recommend Mulato who is a local, he will plan all your tours before you arrive at a fair price and super friendly, his number is +255 777 325 202 insta @zan_mulato_tours

    The rooms are very large, spacious and decorated with simplicity and style. There is no shortage of amenities, the pool is small but perfect for the space and anyone staying here will certainly not regret it, as it is an extraordinary experience. Even more extraordinary is the way you are welcomed by the owner, Zuzanu, a charming woman who knows how to host. And of course, Baraka, always with a smile on his face and very helpful. The space is in the middle of the village and you can experience tranquillity and security (only guests have access to the space), without losing the charm of living with local life.

    Our visit to Zuzana's House was excellent. The staff was super friendly and provided great tips. The location was superb, with the beach just a 50-meter walk away. The breakfast was plentiful, and the host made eggs according to our preferences. The rooms were clean, and the air conditioning was a great addition. Definitely worth recommending.

    Superb value for money. Great location, 2 minute walk to beach, and can pay for day pass too one of beach front hotel if you desire to get all benefits of beach front hotel but pay fraction of overnight prices. 5 min walk to superb cheap restaurant, Local Fish Market, which came highly recommended by host. Breakfast was great and was organised earlier one of the days as we were leaving early (homemade passion fruit jam was delicious). Host very helpful and honest with advice and orgainising/suggesting taxi/tours. Be wary of low tide at nungwi, beach does not look as nice then (another reason not pay large fees to stay at beach front hotels!), much better to walk (or get taxi) to Kendwa beach where tide movements not as severe (day pass for some beach front hotels there quite cheap). Overall would 100% recommend.

    Wifi was very spotty from inside the room but worked well on the balcony. Payment is by cash only currently (although I know Zuzana is working on that).

    Wonderful stay at Zuzanu House. Zuzana and Barack are perfect hosts. Breakfast is superb! Eggs made to order and lots of bread, spreads and juice. The room is very clean and comfortable; although I did find the bed a bit hard. Lots of plugs in the room. Hot water was plenty. The ceiling fan in the room was very useful. If you're a couple or friends staying together I would suggest you request a room with a bathroom door so there's some privacy there. We had no electricity for a few hours one day but Zuzana provided lamps (the big hotel next door had electricity, so hung out at their bar until the lights were back on). The location is away from the "busy" part of Nungwi, it's right in the locals village but there are also some bars and restaurants nearby. The streets are very dark and unpaved but seemed to be safe enough even at night. If the tide is low, you can walk along the beach instead. Overall, highly recommend Zuzanu House!

    Breakfast is impressive. I normally don’t eat breakfast but I eat as much as I can here only because they are so delicious. Fruits are super fresh and they keep all the breads warm for each person which is very considerate. Location is walking distance to the beach and it’s a quieter beach than other main ones so I really like it.

    Spacious room and bathroom with thoughtfully planned shelves and amenities. The large balcony was appreciated and even had a line to dry clothes. Breakfast was wonderful with fruit, eggs cooked to order, local foods and breads. We enjoyed the pool too. This guesthouse felt like home and is ideal if you don’t want to stay in a resort. It’s a short walk to the beach. The owners were so helpful with suggestions and directions. We wished we could stay longer.

The jam, made with passion fruit and pineapple, is really delicious! Only 1 minute walking from the beach and Zuzana is always ready to give you great advices!

    We stayed on the top floor where you can hear all the sounds from outside which is something we are not used to but also had it’s charm. Living in Dubai you are used to airco to sleep with so we had to adjust to not having one. Still managed to sleep oky though!

    The great service from Zuzana and her team, from the amazing breakfast with lots of fresh fruits to the help arranging of trips and tips for dinner. Great location to walk to some nice restaurants and beaches.

    Zuzana is a great host, very kind and she helped us with everything. She even allowed us to check in earlier and leave our luggages there after we made the check out. The hotel is new and built in a traditional way. The breakfast was delicios and had a variety of fruits. They also prepared fresh juice every day for us. It is close to the beach: 3-aprox 3 minutes. I would definetly return there. I already miss that breakfast.

    Zuzana and Barack are great hosts. The house is new and built in a traditional way. Breakfast is freshly prepared by a chef and it had everything we needed. 2 min walk to the beach and several restaurants. The property is pretty close to a mosque (which is normal in Zanzibar) and you have earplugs in the room (quite useful). We would come again!

    We were at this hotel for 3 nights. Zuzana is really nice, she cares about everything, the room is big and comfortable, all is very clean. In the kitchen you have all you need. There is hot water in the shower, and clean towels to the shower and to the beach. It's very close to the beach like 3 minutes to walk. Highly recommended this place. Thank you for all Zuzana :)
