I felt that my room and myself were both neglected. We checked in on the 31st, and although we informed the reception desk that the phone in our room was without service, this issue was not resolved until 01/02. In order to use an American adapter outlet, a make shift power box was plugged in with exposed wires. The food was distasteful and the pools were dirty. The hotel has a significant amount of potential. However, the furniture is outdated. The staff attempted to be accommodating, but did not meet average expectations.

We honeymoon’ed at My Blue Hotel for 6 days and loved it! The hotel property is beautiful and clean. We chose the half board option, and really enjoyed the breakfast provided by the hotel. There are also several nearby restaurants for lunch and dinner that are walking distance. Furthermore, the staff were lovely. We had a smooth check in and check out experience and the cleaning staff left cute designs with towels and flowers on our bed for our honeymoon. The rooms were good - had everything you need including bug nets! Staff would also spray the room in the evening to keep bugs away which was greatly appreciated. The view of the beach was great and we didn’t have any issues getting a beach chair to sit on at any time of the day. Highly recommend staying at My Blue Hotel!

Pleasant 5 nights stay. The two housekeeping ladies are genuine with big smiles. Dinner options are satisfactory (considering the standard in Africa). Rooms are old but with this price point it is fair. The rest of the hotel including swimming pool and bar area are pretty.

Disliked: Amenities
The staff was good and friendly but the property needs some serious work. The picture showed a room with a seating area by the sliding doors....I guess the furniture got old and they just removed it as the only place to sit in this resort was the bed. Not exactly more than a 2 star rating for that. The bathrooms need a real upgrade as there is mold and discoloured grout and caulking that is really nasty. Finally, it doesn't matter how long you stay, the first 2 bottles of water are free and then you must pay for water after this....never seen anything like that...for water??? Far from the 4 star they claim!

The Beach of the hotel is amazing, the general hotel design and pandsacpe is nice and has a character yet the hotel is out dated in terms of room furniture, outdoor and beach furniture. Most towels are over used and many of them are ripped! The chaise longues on beach you have to pay for to use which is very weird for me to see something like thing in a beach front resort like hotel! For the staff in general they are kind yet there is a level of slowleness thats a bit much for me! For example for no obvious reason the security guy at the gate stoped us of not less than 10 mins to allow us in for check in, with a massive lag in communication and a not caring attitude. And its the same everytime we drive back to the hotel. The location of the hotel is good in the area of Nungwi.

MyBlue is a nice hotel direct on the beach, owner is an Italian family, so it's a little bit like in Rimini... If you wnat to have a sun bed on the Beach, you have to pay!! At least Myblue rent these sunbed to everybody for 10$. For 10$ you can stay the all day on the most beautifull beach of Zanzibar, bring your own drink and food, have a free internet the all day. Is that not nice! I paid 3000$ for 9 nights and have to pay extra to be on the beach. Next time i will take an cheap hotel and will spend my day for 10$ at Myblue... When you are booking a room add the information that you don't want a room next to the Disco!!!

The first room we got, when we opened the door, there was a cat inside staring at us, then we were moved to the second room, where we could not sleep ALL NIGHT because there were termites chewing those woods inside the room and the chewing noise was so loud that we could not sleep! We even recorded it just make the front desk people listen, and they were astonished! Then we were moved again to a third room. This was a really painful hotel stay!!

Very disappointed

Booked based on great reviews on Hotels.com and SoMe. Was supposed to stay 6 nights, ended up checking out after 3 nights. 1. There was an extreme smell of mold throughout the entire room/bathroom. The mold was also very visible, the curtains, the walls and the shower. 2. The aircon was not working properly and I assume this is also why they have a mold problem. Humidity was extreme in the room and all our clothes and stuff ended up damp, and nothing (swim/beachwear) was close to drying. Due to the climate in Zanzibar I would say it’s very important that there is a functioning aircon with dehumidification function. 3. The room was dirty, especially around the bed, windows and shower. 4. On the bottom part of the window, there were no glass, only mosquito netting. Due to this, it was moist and very noisy in the room. We felt like we were sleeping in a tent on the street. We could hear everything happening outside and had trouble sleeping because of this. 5. The lady in the reception tried to make a problem out of us checking out later than 12:00, which is crazy as we had already paid for 6 nights, but wanted to leave after 3 nights. 6. Over all, in serious need of upgrade, but even small things like mosquito netting around the bed, sheets/linen and towels had holes. 7. Impossible to get sunbeds unless you wake up at 7 to put your towel down. Dirty pools and facilities. Very disappointed, we expected more from a 4 star hotel.

Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Aufenthalt im My Blue Hotel in Nungwi auf Sansibar. Die Zimmer waren angenehm groß und boten viel Platz zum Entspannen, auch wenn die Ausstattung teilweise schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist. Das Frühstück war zwar etwas eintönig, dennoch war immer für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei, sodass man gut in den Tag starten konnte. Besonders positiv hervorzuheben ist das Abendessen: Die Speisen waren wirklich lecker und abwechslungsreich. Ein echtes Highlight war die eigene Pasta-Kochstation sowie die Grill-Ecke – frisch zubereitet und richtig gut! Auch das tägliche Entertainment am Abend hat uns begeistert. Fast jeden Abend gab es ein abwechslungsreiches Programm, das für tolle Stimmung gesorgt hat und den Urlaub zusätzlich bereichert hat. Insgesamt ein gelungener Aufenthalt mit kleinen Abstrichen – wir haben uns wohlgefühlt und würden das Hotel weiterempfehlen!

Bella struttura situata a Nungwi affacciato su una bellissima spiaggia. Il villaggio è davvero carino e ben tenuto. Ottima la pulizia delle camere e davvero impagabile il personale tutto, dai camerieri alle ragazze che puliscono le camere. Il cibo non è male, chiaramente un po ripetitivo ma buono.C'è ogni giorno l'angolo della pasta, devo dire , ben cucinata. Buona la colazione e ottima la frutta (mango, papaya, anguria, ananas, passion fruit,ramboton ) Impagabile la posizione su mare. Lo consiglio senza esitazione
