... die Anlage war ok, das Essen auch gut. Nette Bungalows, gute Lage direkt am Meer. Sauberer Pool. Einsam. Zum nächsten Dorf ca. 20 Minuten. Der Strand mehlfein, weiß - aber bei Ebbe endlos flach. Nicht möglich zu schwimmen. Teilweise Seegras am Strand. Das Riff ist ca. 3 km entfernt. Dalladalla bleibt auf Wunsch direkt vor dem Eingang stehen.

We stayed at Mbuyuni Beach for Christmas and overall had a very nice time. On the plus side the staff were extremely helpful and very friendly. They often went the extra mile to help - particularly when I got sick through a diving accident and helped arrange medication etc. Christmas eve and day were very nice and they put on a wonderful buffet with a live band. The food throughout our stay was always good and reasonably priced. On the negative side, the overall environment could have been a bit tidier and the showers were cold and not fresh water (not fully seawater either - just saline). Potential visitors should also know that you cant swim on the beach at Mbuyuni due to coral rock and you have to take a 20 minute walk to get really good swimming water. Its a pleasant walk though so we didnt mind. In summary, Mbuyuni Beach is reasonable value for thouse looking for a budget option. Its also only an hr from Stone Town which is handy.

"Awesome Place and very Reasonable Price"

Our stay at Mbuyuni Beach Village was great! From the airport we took a taxi for about $50 USD and it was an hour to the village. The room was clean and decorated nicely and it had a small refrigerator which we found helpful. We were delighted that we were right on the beach and at this time of year, there were not many guests so it was very quiet and peaceful. Our children, ages 10 and 7, entertained themselves with hunting for sea shells, playing pool, table tennis, and swimming in the warm ocean. They are looking forward to visiting again.

The breakfast meals were simple but satisfying and we ate dinner at the restaurant twice during our four day stay in order save money. For four people, we spent about $30 USD at dinner. We would rate the meals as average. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made our stay enjoyable. When we wanted to We would definitely return to Mbunyuni again.
