A few weeks after the rest, I decided to write a review about this beautiful place!
And now in order:
1. Departure from MSC was at night, arrived... got off the plane first and therefore it took 20 minutes from the plane to getting the luggage. Next, the Pegasus counter and the exit to the transfer (there is already longer... but these are trifles). When you turn your head to the right when you go out into the street, there is a currency exchange with a normal exchange rate, although the exchange rate is also normal on Nungwi, but in order to buy beer there, you need the local currency (they just count 1 $ = 2000, and in the exchanger 1 = 2300, so beer costs $ 5 or 10.000 shillings, in shillings it comes out $ 4).
2. The road to the hotel is 1.5 stable, but while the guide rumbles, the time flies by is not noticeable, buses with air conditioning, they give a bottle of water for everyone... you can live.
3. The hotel itself:
3.1. Meets the owner himself (he is always there on the territory). We were settled in the main building (4 floors, 3 rooms per floor) on the 3rd floor (there is an ocean between the palm trees! ).
3.2 From the building to the ocean, 73 steps. . . very close and it's a thrill.
3.3 There are also bungalows on site, but I was not impressed and we were happy in our room.
3.4 The room is standard, a large bed, a wardrobe, a wardrobe with a lock, a table and a couple of chairs (if you leave the key at the reception, they will clean the room, they didn’t leave it). Bathroom shower, washbasin. There is a condo, there is just a fan, a refrigerator. In front of the room there are a couple of sofas and a table, an ashtray. . . in the evening you can enjoy the silence next to the palm trees). One evening a lemur galloped up to us on a palm tree, first posed, then screamed heart-rendingly for about 15 minutes... touted females, maybe March, after all))))
3.5 Dining room on the way to the beach, there are breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Breakfast is standard: fruits, tea/coffee eggs (in different preparations to choose from).
3.6 The hotel area is not large, but it is not required... everyone needs a beach, not the hotel area.
4. Beach:
4.1 Beach with white coral sand.
4.2 There will be enough sunbeds for all the guests (strangers are driven), so it makes no sense to borrow from the very morning, but if you want a company nearby, you can take it at breakfast. We ourselves took out sunbeds in the morning and put them where we want (towels are brought to the reception every morning, and we rent them there in the evening).
4.3 They write low tides / high tides... for 12 nights the low tides were strong a couple of times... not like in the photo of different ones for a kilometer, the water is right there, only shallow... but this is not a problem at all, you sail further and everything is fine. This is a huge plus... I recommend everyone to take a mask with you... there are a lot of stars (which at low tide you can collect in one place and arrange a photo shoot, there are a lot of different ones, more than 10 for sure), corals, various fish... You can arrange snorkeling right at the hotel and you will be delighted.
4.4 They write about hedgehogs, they have a place to be, but not near the shore, but if you swim further and at low tide, when it’s shallow, at normal times, if you wish, you won’t reach them. You can not take slippers with you, only extra luggage.
4.5 In the evening, instead of sunbeds, they begin to set up tables for dinner from 5-5:30, but feel free to move the sunbed to the water and enjoy the sunset as much as you like, no one will drive.
5. Lunch
5.1 We always dined at the hotel, although there is a mama mia hotel nearby, people took pizza there, we only took ice cream there (1 scoop 4000.2=8000.3=10000, very tasty).
5.2 Lunch for money went out for two up to 50.000. We took a couple of soups and a portion of something)))) Either shrimp, or octopus, fish steak... everything depends on the mood. Soups 8-12 thousand, a dish on average 20-25 (the composition includes a dish, cucumber + tomato salad, fries, rice) and a couple of juices.
6. Dinner
6.1 We dined mainly at the hotel (a couple of times in other places, the prices are lower, but the quality of the products is different).
6.2 Here you are offered an excellent assortment of seafood: fish (perch, kingfish, dorado, pike (I forgot the name), squid, shrimps of different sizes, octopuses (we got hooked on them, very tasty), lobsters. The prices are normal, for example, squid, shrimps , octopuses as on the lunch menu (20-25) Fish depending on the size. . . I took the most expensive one for 80.000 (it's hefty of course), lobsters also from 45-150 (but you can knock down to 100, for the most Someone writes to wait a long time and all that (there were a couple of moments they forgot about me at all, but remind them and they will do it), we came with a group, and sat drinking and time passed unnoticed during the conversation... so the expectation of dinner did not bother, sat down closer to the water (in the evenings, local merchants give away goods for a penny with good trade, the quality is the same as during the day, but the price is lower, they can steal and sell... it doesn’t matter).
7. Alcohol
7.1 if you leave the hotel on the field where they play football, then immediately behind it there will be an exchanger with a normal rate and a store with alcohol next to it.
7.2 If you look at the sea and go to the left, then after 200-300 meters there will be an alcohol market right on the beach, there are delicious potatoes (like chips). At the prices of local cognac 35 degrees, lime squeezed into a glass and it's fine... it goes well and in the morning the head does not hurt, it costs 0.25=5000.0. 5=10000.0. 75=15000. Beer 4000-6000, cigarettes will run out, it is better to buy in an exchanger, they are the cheapest, in other places the same cigarettes are 2 times more expensive.
8. Souvenir products
8.1 We bargain as best we can, the sky-high price tag is immediately offered. I advise you to take a break, ask the price and then knock out the right prices.
8.2 Standard white hooded beach shirts are so light. . . the price is 30-35000. . . the price is the same everywhere.
8.3 We collected a lot of paintings at a price of $10-25 apiece, we were transported normally, although the plane was full, but there was a lot of space for hand luggage. They are neatly folded and packed in a newspaper, nothing happens to them upon arrival.
8.4 Merchants on the beach are banal dealers, they offer coconut 5000-10000, near the hotel he takes it himself for 2000-3000. Likewise with the rest of the products.
8.5 Massage, did not do pigtails)))
9. What to see nearby
9.1 we go out to the beach, look at the sea and go right to the end... 15-20 minutes and there is a reserve with aquatic turtles. We came to the opening at 8-00 and there was nobody except us))) you can swim with them, pick them up, take pictures... in short, interesting (entrance $ 10).
9.2 Next to the turtles there is a mini zoo (ostriches, lemurs, turtles, chameleons, monkeys - kind and funny by the way, lemurs) I RECOMMEND... the price is also $ 10.
9.3 If you go to the left from the hotel, then there is nothing special to see, stupid pictures on an empty snow-white beach.
10. Travel agent
10.1 If a meeting with him is scheduled, you can score. For 2-3 hours, she will sell her excursions supposedly for a penny, but I will say in fact that the price is 2 times more expensive.
10.2 Excursions right at the hotel on the beach are 2 times cheaper, but they take you by a separate transfer from the hotel, and then with the same Pegasus, Anex you get into a boat or plane and fly : )))) but they are taken by bus to all hotels and gather people, and you calmly eat in the car.
10.3 Prices for excursions $ 35-45 is on a boat for a blue safari, disappearing islands... they are all about the same... there is really nothing to see, but you need to take a ride, you need to get some air )))
10.4 Safari to the mainland on the beach 350$-400$.
10.5 Fishing is a fortune, for 40 bucks you can negotiate and go for a ride. . .
11. Weather
11.1 In general, a buzz. From 12-15 in the afternoon there was a steam room, someone sat in the room and slept, but we spent these 3 hours in the water, walking somewhere to go at this time is very hot...
11.2 During the rest there were 2 thunderstorms, for a maximum of 30 minutes and then heat, and there was no rain. So don't stress.
12. Road home
12.1 Transfer from the agency - LAZHA. pick up at 6 am, although the plane at 12-30.
12.2 We took a car with neighbors and drove off at 9 am, at 10-20 we were at the airport. $40 per car.
12.3 At the airport, they checked in their luggage, filled out a couple of papers (the queue for dropping off the luggage is not particularly long, but then the queue for passport control is long, but it goes on and everyone will pass).
12.4 The airport is small (there is nowhere to spit), there are duty-free, but there are not a lot of goods. Cognacs 0.5-10 $, 0.7-12. Wine -12. ALL))))
12.5 While you pass all the controls, you will be in time for the plane, so do not rush and fuss (there is a smoking room at the airport... the entrance is a dollar).
13. Forgot about fruits.
13.1 Luggage is weighed per person 10+-2 kg, especially not weighed.
13.2 Hand luggage is not checked or weighed... we carried a lot and no one said a word. Fruits are trite in large packages from home) were delivered without being crushed.
13.3 Fruit on the spot sell mango, banana, pineapple, coconut, avocado, passion fruit, lime, grapefruit, orange, watermelon.
Yes, I wanted to single out the owner separately, he was responsive, helped to print tickets, in general, helped if there were any problems at the hotel or on the beach with the locals.
So I recommend visiting this wonderful place.
TICKETS BACK.
Only printed cards are accepted at the airport. It is worth printing them in advance at home.
