Lovely place! Beautiful comfy and clean rooms. Great breakfast. Amazing location right by the beach and close to restaurants and the village.
The manageress was very attentive and welcoming. She also gave us lots of tips on good places to go/eat.
Will definitely come back

Value for money, this is as good as it gets, not just in Zanzibar but anywhere! Great place to relax! The beds are comfortable and the breakfasts are amazing! Also, the private swings right on the beach are fantastic for relaxing and wasn’t bitten by a mosquito once! They also arrange activities on the island which we recommend 100%! Thanks so much to Gillian for being a great host and especially to Faisal for being so friendly and helpful! Couldn’t recommend Shanuo enough!

The room was comfortable and very clean with a lovely mosquito net above the bed. The views of the beach from my balcony were fantastic and a great spot to be served breakfast every morning by the lovely staff, Happy or Faisal. Good options for breakfast too!
It’s a very short walk to the wonderful Rock restaurant, as well as other great places along the beach, such as Baladin.
Gillian and her team couldn’t have been more friendly or helpful, they really helped make my stay thoroughly enjoyable! They are happy to help with recommendations on restaurants, local activities and tours… plus sharing helpful local words and phrases!
Cannot beat the beachfront location and the sun loungers were the perfect place to relax! Wish I could’ve stayed longer.

What a beautiful place to stay! Its a quiet and relaxing bungalow that is not quite the “resort” set up. We liked it a lot as there was very little disturbances and the service/host was fantastic. Gillian was so helpful and accommodating!! I highly recommend to anyone wanting a not-so-tourist-like-stay on the beach. They have only the offer for breakfast, which for us, suited us really well as we got to try the restaurants along the beach. The breakfast is served to you in front of your bungalow, simply wake up and sit outside! A word of warning and the only thing that we didnt like/didnt agree with: they do not offer any drinking water – you must buy single use plastic bottles…

Of the three hotels in which we were on different beaches of Zanzibar, this one was in last place. Didn’t like that we waited for breakfast for almost 1.5 hours, there was no canopy over the bed. And the atmosphere somehow did not fit … But the hotel is quite nice 🙂 the beach is excellent, Near the Rock restaurant, and the hotel next door has its own brewery 😋

Great place I came back from yesterday and I already miss it. We spent a week, which was a break from our daily routine, in this seemingly not very spectacular Hotel, which was a great choice as it allowed us to enter a different level of experience. Bathroom with toilet just behind the bed, shared fridge available only during reception opening hours – all this added to the charm of this hotel. We were awakened by the sound of the ocean, the tides of which are incredibly vast in this part of the world. The service was very polite, communication in English was not a problem. Cleaned and sprayed with insect repellent daily.
We set our holiday in advance to see as much as possible and although it lasted only a week, we came back very happy and saturated with Africa. Thanks to the help of the hotel staff, it was possible to buy an inexpensive one-day trip to Safari with a pickup from the hotel itself, for which I am very grateful because it was one of the dreams come true. Shanuo is also a very good base for exploring the corners of the island by rented car, because in Paje, which is a few kilometers away, you can refuel your car. I definitely recommend and warn you because you can fall in love with this place !!!
