Isla Bonita is a wonderful place with friendly and helpful stuff. We were welcomed as old friends. The rooms are clean and cozy with fantastic sea view. Also you can go to the roof to see amazing sunrise. We loved this quiet place, we enjoyed walking along the wide beach, we miss our small talks with general manager. Thanks for unforgettable time at Isla Bonita! BTW if you enter the beach and turn left there is a nice place to eat called Spicy mama with tasty authentic food and european service.

We liked everything you can think of. Excellent customer service and also food and vibes. Very digital nomad centric and suitable for everyone who just wants to enjoy good services. We gave stayed also in Paje at Summer beach paje and Nungwi at Seles, and by comparison Makofi was definitely our favorite.

Simply perfect stay! The hotel is located directly on the beautiful Kendwa beach, the most beautiful beach of all. The room was spacious, very clean and meticulously maintained. The swimming pool was also beautiful, ideal for relaxing during breaks from the sea. The staff was exceptional: always friendly, smiling and available for every need. A gesture that I really appreciated was the possibility of leaving my luggage after check-out, before my flight. An unforgettable experience: highly recommended.

Me and my friend stayed at ocean breeze Airbnb for 3 days. Both of us loved our stay there! We were amazed by how INCREDIBLE the service was for such a low cost. When we arrived we were welcomed with a fruit plate as well as a drink of our choice. Everyone was super friendly! Especially the owner/manager was amazing. He told us to text/tell him if there was ever a problem and when there was one he did the best he could do to help us. Additionally, when we asked where it was the best place to watch the sunrise he quickly went to go ask some people he knew to make sure we would get the best experience. After talking to some he said that it might not be safe to go alone so early/in the dark and even offered to accompany us for safety reasons so we could do everything we wanted to during our stay - this is just one example! All in all the service was amazing (the breakfast was REALLY GOOD, with fruits, eggs, bread, coffee/tea) Besides the service etc., the hotel was really peaceful, with a big room and good location : pretty close to the beach (5min walk) and restaurants (there’s a discount if we go in Coco cabana restaurant that make really good food and beautiful ocean view) . If I ever go back to Zanzibar, I would for sure visit ocean breeze air bnb again ! You can trust them a 100%, your stay there will be amazing !

Yulia is an great host! You will need at least one hour to eat your AMAZING and huge breakfast. I had the best time and left several days later than planned because of how relaxing and chill the hostel was. It's clean and safe. It's a 10-15 min walk from the beach. There are nice local and touristic restaurants around. There are a couple shops and fruit stands near the property.

    Charming Boutique hotel lovingly designed down to the smallest detail. Wonderful rooms, large balcony, great breakfast and dinner. White powdery sand beach only one step away - quiet and clean at all times. Amazing owners. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Arranged for me everything. Service level: 10++/10. You come as a stranger and leave as a friend. Recommendation: 100%
