My room wan not clean, so they immediately gave me a another room. It is right in front of the beach. The breakfast is fresh and the restaurant food was fresh to order and very delicious. It is a little out from the city but well worth the drive for the cost compared to other resorts in Mwanza. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ethan, USA Nov 13, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Top Notch Very clean and very classy. Attentive staff with great service. Property is brand new and is of very high quality. Spotless. Staff was super helpful and food and drinks were great. Recommended. I had a phone with google maps navigation and that was helpful in getting from the main road to the beach front. ##### Ethan Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jul 8, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jun 13, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Ari Magnus Jan 19, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good food and service, fantastic naturen and birds ##### Ari Magnus Stayed 1 night in Jan 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sunrise Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Dar-Es-Salaam-Hotels-Sunrise-Beach-Resort.h16382901.Hotel-Information) > > [Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Zanzibar-Nungwi.h3300267.Hotel-Information) > > [Brubru Lodge ](https://www.expedia.ca/Moshi-Hotels-Altezza-Lodge.h19686862.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Halifax](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels.d602873.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Principe Grand Turquesa - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Grand-Turquesa-All-Inclusive.h8165953.Hotel-Information) > > [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) > > [Gran Melia Arusha](https://www.expedia.ca/Arusha-Hotels-Gran-Melia-Arusha.h34865479.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.ca/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Toronto](https://www.expedia.ca/Pearson-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aYYZ-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Manitoulin Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Manitoulin-Island-Hotels.d6339922.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Ngorongoro Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ngorongoro-Conservation-Area-Hotels-Ngorongoro-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h903728.Hotel-Information) > > [Africa Safari Selous](https://www.expedia.ca/Selous-Game-Reserve-Hotels-Africa-Safari-Selous.h8446485.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Ripplecove Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ayers-Cliff-Hotels-Ripplecove-Hotel-Spa.h3183.Hotel-Information) > > [Bluebay Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Bluebay-Beach-Resort-And-Spa.h1867044.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Antalya (AYT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ayt/toronto-to-antalya) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Alberta (YQF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yqf/calgary-to-red-deer) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yvr/calgary-to-vancouver) ### Packages
