They spent between 45 minutes to 1 hour cleaning our room each day. They would fold our clothes in the wardrobe, line up our shoes and toiletries. I have never experienced cleaning to such depth 10/10. Pool was lovely and it was safe and quiet. Staff genuinely could not do enough. If you are half board food is a set menu for dinner. Only criticism would be sometimes the water would go off for a short period of time. There were the odd power cuts for a few seconds at a time. ##### Niamh Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Troy Jun 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good facilities.

Fantastic 3 star hotel in Nungwi! Great location in a quiet part of Nungwi. Private beach area with no salesmen. BEAUTIFUL outdoor area! Very kind employees from Reception to Spa, cleaning and Restaurant. Rooms are spacious with sufficient room for 3 big single/queen beds and luggage without it feeling crammed. Simple interior but we were only in the room for sleeping and it had good nets thst was prepared each night. Did not see one single mosquito inside. Bedsheets clean but with a few permanent stains. No issue for us as felt clean. No noticed electrical fall-outs - I think they have a generator. Only awareness point is that the door lock is very simple: from outside you lock with a small padlock (but there is a safe in the room). From inside there is a simple slide lock (toilet door style) that barely locked in our room - a simple push would have opened the door. Given guard on the premises I felt safe with just a suitcase in front of the door but preferably the lock had been a bit more solid. Does not change the conclusion: AWESOME hotel. Hope to return another time. ![View from the beach towards the hotel. 5 small houses.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2492587-26de-4092-b413-5001df367bae-1753021005763.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from a sunbed](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ab427778-e98d-48ff-a37a-daf74c7c14d7-1753021006040.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Nice pool with sunbeds, shade and even electricity for charging phones! ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/de24dbf4-c7cf-4d8e-9585-27b75aecd1f6-1753021004522.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![View from a sunbed](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/33013250-c202-4467-862e-775471d75a79-1753020997498.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sisser Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jennifer Jul 22, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Love our stay in the perfect location. I had an amazing time at Smiles Beach Hotel. The staff was very attentive. The bed is HUGE. And every night around 7pm, they come in and set up the mosquito net. Many choices for breakfast and the location is superb. If you're driving, there's free parking and a bit or dirt road to get there. The only comment I have is how they use a key lock on the outside. I feel it may be a hazard...especially if someone wanted to lock you in the room. ##### Jennifer Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer Sep 22, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Ok but too quiet for me The resort itself was very nice. However the rooms were a bit unmodern, very bad lightning in bathroom, but comfy bed. Super friendly staff. But way too quiet for us, no music by pool. Food was ok, we didn’t have all inclusive. Still gives you a very authentic experience from their old school stove & grill station. Happy overall but I prefer a bit more modern and energetic place ##### Jennifer Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunrise Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Dar-Es-Salaam-Hotels-Sunrise-Beach-Resort.h16382901.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Fallsview Resort & Spa by Hilton Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-DoubleTree-Fallsview-Resort-Spa-By-Hilton-Niagara-Falls.h1068939.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Bluebay Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Bluebay-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h1867044.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Chatham-Kent](https://www.expedia.ca/Chatham-Kent-Hotels.d6057866.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Africa Safari Selous](https://www.expedia.ca/Selous-Game-Reserve-Hotels-Africa-Safari-Selous.h8446485.Hotel-Information) > > [Quality Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Ramada-By-Wyndham-Vancouver-Downtown.h450969.Hotel-Information) > > [Brubru Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Moshi-Hotels-Altezza-Lodge.h19686862.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Motels Golden](https://www.expedia.ca/Golden-Motels.d6058316-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in North Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/North-Bay-Hotels.d6134289.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Mersenne Zanzibar, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Michamvi-Hotels-Le-Mersenne-Beach.h65725614.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.ca/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h903728.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Hotel Brossard](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Best-Western-Hotel-Brossard.h65752.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels.d178293.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Gran Melia Arusha](https://www.expedia.ca/Arusha-Hotels-Gran-Melia-Arusha.h34865479.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Ho Chi Minh City (SGN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/sgn/toronto-to-ho-chi-minh-city) > > [Flights from Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/31/flights-from-canada) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/nyc/toronto-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Kamloops (YKA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yka/calgary-to-kamloops) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Pearson-Intl.d5921113.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) > > [Japan Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Japan.d89.Destination-Travel-Guides)
