We had a very nice stay at Ellavita Cottages. The room was cozy and Tina and Khalifa are very nice hosts. They are always there when you have a problem and can help you with everything. They also know the place well so any question concerning activites can be answered. The breakfast is also delicious. Would definitely recommend and come back if we would go to Nungwi again.

Fåes ikke bedre til prisen.

Særdeles venligt og serviceminded ungt værtspar. Bungalows ligger centreret omkring en dejlig rolig have. Beliggenhed i forhold til Nungwi’s bedste strand, kan ikke være bedre. Mega sødt personale. Super bungalows til prisen.
