Nungwi Beach
Maisha Nungwi
A small four-star boutique hotel set back from the water on Nungwi's quieter east side, with a spa, a garden and balconied rooms. It leans calm and grown-up rather than party, and you'll want a short walk or a lift to reach the main beach strip. Reviews are strong, 8.7/10 over more than 1,100 stays, at around US$190 a night.
