Guest Reviews

• Dana (8/5): -
• Giampiero (8/5): Coccobello piacevole scoperta - L'informalità.la sensazione di essere in un posto fuori dagli schemi. La cordialità del personale e della gestione Sostanzialmente niente
• Elena (8/5): - Lo staff era molto gentile, abbiamo avuto dei problemi tecnici con la camera ma Nicole in particolare ci ha supportato. È raro trovare una struttura che si assuma le proprie responsabilità con tale signorilità. Un incidente tecnico può capitare, ma la gentilezza con cui siamo stati trattati fa la differenza. Consigliato per la serietà della gestione. La struttura è pulita ed c'è una bella atmosfera molto tipica Abbiamo soggiornato all'Hotel Coccobello, ma purtroppo l'esperienza è stata interrotta da un guasto elettrico prolungato. Nonostante la struttura disponga di un generatore, questo non è stato attivato tempestivamente, rendendo il soggiorno difficoltoso. Per questo motivo, abbiamo deciso di ripartire dopo la prima notte invece delle cinque previste. Ci tengo però a sottolineare la grande professionalità dello staff: hanno compreso il disagio e ci hanno rimborsato le notti non usufruite senza problemi. Un vero peccato per l'incidente tecnico, perché l'approccio al cliente è eccellente
• Ruth (3/5): I would not recommended it - Not far from main places I asked fo breakfast to take away because 8:00 am was to late for me. It was difficult to have it on th 1st morning (and no coffee) and on the 2nd morning they promised I would have breakfast to take away and they did not prepare anything. They did not even answeres the messages.
• Tianming (10/5): - Great location, and great room the decoration and design is amazing
• Alexia (8/5): Siamo stati benissimo! Grazie a tutti, Zanzibar nel cuore ♥️ - Tutto! Dall’accoglienza dello staff soprattutto Salome, Nicole (proprietaria) alla disponibilità anche per le piccole cose. A giorni alterni organizzano una festa al Coccobello disco che merita con prezzi agevolati per chi è della struttura. Buona la colazione, il caffè espresso e comodità nel spostarsi per Nungwi :) Quando andava via la corrente non c’era l’acqua calda e la possibilità di asciugarsi i capelli :/
• Roberta (9/5): - Friendly staff. The rooms are clean and spacious. House keeping provided every day. Our third floor room had plenty of air so I good sleep and privacy. Also the location is perfect, close to the beach, shops and restaurants -
• MAJČI (10/5): - Tutto Mi dispiace che in camera non c'era la tv e se c'era anche la piscina sarebbe stato super fantastico,
• Mariapasqua (10/5): -
• MAJČI (10/5): -
• Paul (8/5): - Nice colorful design in all the establishment and comfortable room
• Anita (10/5): - Alt er perfect 🤩
• gregory (10/5): -
• Faten (8/5): Séjour agréable dans un hôtel original et près de la plage - Hôtel bien situé, à 3 minutes de la plage de Nungwi et proche de divers commerces. Décoration originale et sympathique.
• Bernardelli (8/5): Soggiorno molto piacevole; il personale è stato tutto molto gentile e disponibile. - La colazione abbondante e varia (dolce e salato); una mattina siamo usciti prima dell'inizio previsto e ci hanno preparato un take away(molto gentili). Le camere ben arredate e personalizzate Essendo le camere solo doppie nn offrono possibilità d prenotazioni per un numero dispari di clienti; noi eravamo 13 e abbiamo quindi richiesto una camera doppia ad uso singola. Abbiamo avuto un piccolo disguido con acqua, poi risolto
• Anastasiia (1/5): - Довольно вкусная еда в ресторане, аутентичный африканский стиль, приветливые официантки на этом все. Сейфы или ячейки для хранения отель не предоставляет, поэтому деньги и ценные вещи приходится хранить в чемодане, например. Примерно на 3й день мы забыли закрыть чемодан на кодовый замок, и у нас украли из номера 800$, видимо, во время уборки. Владелец и менеджер отеля отказались помогать, никак не включились в ситуацию, сказали лишь: вы ничего не докажете. Полиция тоже саботировала данную проблему, долго не хотели принимать заявление. Ощущение, что они все повязаны. Вода в номере океаническая и не фильтруется. То есть после океана вы моетесь океаном. Представляете, как это влияет на кожу и волосы. Каждый день на 5-6 часов отключают электричество, для острова это норма. Но если в других отелях есть генераторы на этот случай, то тут на нем, видимо, сэкономили. Поэтому если вы застали блэкаут вечером в номере, то будете сидеть в темноте и без связи. Вай-фай, кстати, тут тоже ужасный. Поэтому если вам он нужен для работы, то точно в этом отеле. Итого, отель категорически не рекомендую, даже если проживание будет бесплатным)
• Sergio (10/5): - Everything 😍
• Yvette (10/5): Spotless and huge breakfast and super staff - Spotless clean and fresh towels every day - good hot water pressure - large rooms and massive generous breakfast. Staff went above and beyond all the time. We know the country has a lot of power cuts - but they said their generator is broken - not sure when fixed but there was hours with no power or therefore wi-fi which was an issues for sure.
• Ekaterina (7/5): Не подходит для отдыха,лучше заселяться на 1-2 ночи - Завтрак и ланч-бокс,собранный из-за раннего выселения Заселили раньше официального времени,так как номер был готов Отключение света Соленая вода из крана Слабое освещение номера Шум от соседней стройки
• Gaio (10/5): Questa struttura è situata praticamente sul mare, neanche 300m. Camera molto graziosa e accogliente, pulita e spaziosa. - Posizione, servizi, colazione, personale, pulizia
• Anita (10/5): Hyggeligt ophold - Centralt på alt. Intet
• yingtong (8/5): - 洗澡水是海水，洗不干净，而且房间内丢了50美金
• yingtong (8/5): - 在房间内钱包里的50美金不见了，而且洗澡水是咸的
• Brigita (8/5): - Hotel is fab 👌all staff are so friendly and helpful
• oscar (8/5): - Nice staff
• Fabiana (7/5): - Coccobello è il posto perfetto per chi vuole vivere al 100% le vibes autentiche di Zanzibar! La struttura è centrale, accogliente e ti immerge subito nell’atmosfera vivace del luogo. Lo staff è sempre disponibile e gentile. A pochi passi, la discoteca che organizza serate super divertenti, perfette per chi vuole anche godersi un po’ di nightlife.
• Jakub (10/5): -
• Enrico (10/5): -
• Filippo (8/5): - posto mlto colorato e a pochi passi dalla spiaggia. camere belle e piene delle cose necessarie. bagno molto grande. colazione buona ma non ho provato il ristorante ho dovuto cambiare la camera per qualche problema alla serratura, ma tutto risolto. i risotranti principali distano mezz'ora a piedi
• Diana (10/5): -
• Zsuzsanna (9/5): Would definitely recommend this cozy place in Zanzibar - Location, breakfast, comfortable rooms
• Wilfred (7/5): Good -
• Jess (9/5): Nice place but being earplugs! - Good breakfast, comfortable bed No locked luggage storage, just bag kept behind desk which is not good enough :( Also noisy building works starting 6am and continue all day, so it was difficult to rest
• Nieznanska (8/5): Very good -
• Marina (9/5): Superb - Perfect location! Amazing stuff! Must check if staying in Nungwi!
• Bernadett (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful, stylish room, with a nice view of the sea. It is well ventilated, so the air conditioning was not missing either. The location is great, everything you might need is close by. Kind and direct staff, fantastic breakfast. I loved every minute of it here, and the party was also very good :)
• Irene (10/5): Cheap and comfortable - Amazing hotel for such a good price and location!
• Bhagyashri (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Great place and location, amazing food and Salome was amazing 👏
• Krister (9/5): Very good location, good breakfast very nice personel -
• Papa (7/5): Good -
• Rotondwa (7/5): Amazing staff!!! - The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The airline left my luggage in Ethiopia, I informed the staff and they called the airport numerous times and demanded for my luggage to be delivered ASAP. My phone also got water damage and the staff tried to help me get it fixed. Even suggested where to take it to get fixed. I don’t know what I would’ve done without the staff! I felt so at home at Coccobello. The staff is just so amazing and kind. The door to the sea view balcony didn’t open so I didn’t really get the sea view. Breakfast has limited options. The showers need maintenance
• Zaineb (9/5): Vibes - This stay was great value for money. The grounds of Cocobello are absolutely beautiful and artistic, huge restaurant/bar, and the rooms are beautifully decorated, spacious with 2 balconies, and comfortable. The management and staff are were the friendliest and made our stay so much better, special shoutout to Jay, Ezekiel, and Christine. The location is perfect close to the beach in Nungwi and close to Kendwa as well by water taxi or bike. When we arrived for NYE they had just opened Club Cocobello around 500 meters walk away, so no parties are happening at the hotel. The food at the restaurant takes very long to arrive, and the room is not air conditioned which we knew before, but it was very warm for this time of the year maybe more fans can be added.
• Tigran (7/5): Good -
• Sabine (10/5): Really good experience - Everything was very nice, friendly and helpful staff. They cleaned the room every day and provided fresh towels and linen. Very close to one of the nicest beach in Nungwi and close to many restaurants in the area. We had 2 nights with party at the club but we knew before what to expect. Also now the club moved 500 m away from accommodation and no need to worry about the music anymore.
• Babikir (6/5): Affordable but money paid is a bit more than it should be - The party was great No ac and no view
• Magdalena (9/5): Party place, colorful and comfortable - Colorful and positive design, good food. It’s party place with crazy party 3 times per week. Amazing show of the Freedom Dancers crew. Nice view (from room no 13). The staff in the restaurant during the breakfast and day time could be more energetic. In the room there was a fun on the ceiling but due to heave textile above the bed you couldn’t feel the air while sleeping. Would be enough to change this material to the net same as on the sides, then the air will go through.
• Erika (8/5): Very good -
• Jessica (8/5): Stayed here many times already. - We stayed for one night and went to the party. The staff was very friendly. Room was clean. Saltwater in the shower.
• Daniele (9/5): Superb - Everything was very welcoming, especially Shaggy (Rohan) who helped us organising our excursions and diving. He’s the best! The rooms are all very original and customised. The structure is 3 min walk from the beach.
• Johanna (7/5): Nice hotel and great party - Good atmosphere Friendly staff Comfy bed Close to the beach I you are looking for a good place with party and beach, I highly recommend Coccobello Bathroom - it was a little bite stinky and water was somehow salty Towels had stains Bathroom and the floor was not clean
• Isabella (10/5): Exceptional - The stuff is really nice aswell as the owner. Love it there. I have been there for sure already 15 - 20 times
• Sara (10/5): Exceptional -
• Raquel (5/5): Passable - It is a nice place by the beach, clean and with a number of facilities The place organises big parties during the week which make impossible to get any rest those nights.
• Katerina (7/5): Good - We loved the parties, the decoration, friendly staff, near the beach We stayed at 1st floor and we couldn’t take a shower because the water wasn’t enough. Everyday exactly the same breakfast
• Monika (9/5): i come again this Place….very good Energy - very nice Place,lovely and friendly people
• Saskia (7/5): Good -
• Cecilia (5/5): Passable -
• Maha (10/5): Exceptional - It's good and excellent clean and amazing place
• Iuliia (8/5): Paradise vacation at Zanzibar island - convenient location close to perfect beach area (just about 5-10 minutes) with no long low tides distance. very polite and helpful staff. there are disco nights. as for me it’s an advantage. it may be too noisy for some people - I had so active days that even loud music didn’t disturb me during the night. if you have a sensitive sleep earplugs could help. there is a bar from the same owner at the beach line with several sun beds and umbrellas - for hotel guests is a special price for rent. very convenient (but it could be better to provide its renting for free 🙂) not all rooms have a “sea view” though it’s written in description. It was my filter for searching a place but finally I had a construction site view. regards other positive moments had smoothed it.
• Tommaso (10/5): Just....COCCOBELLO!!!! - A colourful spot surrounded by nature really close to Nungwi beach, 7 min walking (where you'll find also a private Beach-Bar called "Cocco Beach "where u can listen good music, chill an meet new people around the world) Staff super friendly always smiling and ready to help you in case u need it. Owners Nicole and Tommy as well, cool and super friendly since the day arrived in Coccobello. About Room same, colourful, fresh (specially during the night, an clean. (You'll have also Cleaner sevice every day) One of the best experience of my life. The first impact on the beach will be for sure a bit annoying because you'll be surrounded by Beach Boys that they will try to sell you gadgets, tours, excursions ecc. (not only in Nungwi but in general) But dont worry about it, just be friendly saying you're not interested and they will move to others tourists.
• Mona (8/5): Very good -
• Maroua (10/5): Exceptional - Stylish décoration Good Vibe Nice breakfast Beautiful view Nice bar Close to everything
• Carina (8/5): Very good - Nice room, double balcony, all is new and working properly. Clean place at the rooms. Friendly workers. At night it is too dark to walk around alone. The sea view is too far. It is not front beach. It is 80-100 mts from the beach.
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good -
• Alison (8/5): Great value for money, bedroom was lovely as were the staff. It was more a club with rooms though than a hotel - Excellent value for money, our room was lovely, super clean with a great view of the sea from our top floor. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff - very friendly and welcoming. amazing club on Sunday and Wednesday - very loud music until 4am and floods with people but the hotel make sure you’re aware of it before you come No full English breakfast as stated in the details, only option is fresh fruit and eggs which were nice - they should correct the hotel details.. The hotel is really a club with rooms, very quiet and isolated when it’s not club night. Most restaurants and hotels to get out and be around other people are along the beach which isn’t safe to walk along after dark.
• Nikos (10/5): Recommended for beach, party and safe friendly environment - Nice environment, best staff and amazing owner! Music at the parties (sorry) but parties are really nice. During day best music.
• L4708 (10/5): The best place ever - I would like to tell everyone that come to visit Zanzibar that Coccobello is a MUST is like going to Rome you must visit Vatican City. So must go at Coccobello a unique place very beautiful and cure in any particolari, the only on the all island that will make you live a real experience of local music and dancer. The owner and the staff are amazing.
• lkalashnikov (10/5): Best vegetarian pizza ever!!! - Best vegetarian pizza ever!!! Also they serve great fish burgers. During thr evening they host a dance party. The place is held by local couple. The overall design of the place is very welcoming and totally recommended.
