Milele Beach Resort

We had spent the first part of our honeymoon in Tanzania mainland, doing a safari. When arriving on Zanzibar, we had a very unfortunate event. We had booked a horrible hotel in Nungwi, which risked destroying our honeymoon. We started searching around and found this beautiful boutique hotel "Milele Beach Resort". This beautiful hotel is owned and operated by the italian power-woman Lisa (Isabella) and her nice son Niccolo. The resort is on the beach, so you can go swimming in the ocean or go for long beach walks. There is also a pool, and a lot of sunbeds with traditional parasols/sun covers. You can order drinks and lunch to the sunbeds. Breakfast is simple but good, with omelettes, fresh fruits, juice, pastries, coffee, and so on. However, what is most important is the atmosphere. Lisa, her family and her hotel staff are very kind and they make your stay feel like you are staying with a family. We went scuba diving from a company which is 5 minutes away on foot, and also went to the famous restaurant The Rock which is 15 minutes away in car. Milele Beach Resort offers a sea-view massage spot for couples. There is music one day each week, where a local band plays music and invites the guests to dance. It was very funny, and even Lisa and her family joined the dance because her birthday coincided with the music day. If you are a couple, or newlyweds, or looking to ignite the passion with your beloved one, this is the place to stay. We used this hotel as our base for exploring the island. We highly recommend this hotel, and the owner Lisa, she was the SAVIOR of our honeymoon!

Fantastic family run boutique hotel right on the water! What a gem! Rooms are fantastic, bathroom is very spacious, the location is ideal (right on the beach), restaurant is very cute and stays open till late and Lisa, the manager is the soul of the place! Excellent staff that treated us like family! The welcome was also phenomenal - champagne and a small bite that made us feel very special on our honeymoon! Pool is great and the colours of the horizon are gorgeous from the sunbeds. Well done guys!

This resort is an easy 10 out of 10. We absolutely loved this very special place and could not recommend it enough. The location is good, the rooms are lovely, the pool and amenities are very good, the restaurant is also amazing! Loved all the food we had there, it was all delicious. The owner Lisa was lovely and made us feel very welcome and right at home and she went above and beyond for us. The staff were absolutely exceptional. We have never received service like it, they made us feel like we were the only guests and like we were family. A very special place to spent some of our honeymoon.

Siamo tornati da poco da una breve vacanza a Zanzibar dove siamo stati al Milele Beach Resort. Che dire, un resort piccolo ma perfetto! Gentilezza, pulizia, stanze bellissime, staff che sembra solo interessato a far star bene gli ospiti! Bravissimo Niccolò, che non ci ha fatto mai sentire soli. Era sempre pronto a soddisfare ogni nostra richiesta. Ci siamo sentiti a casa e, per chi come noi si reca in Africa per la prima volta, non è cosa da poco. Isabella, la proprietaria, si è rivelata una padrona di casa perfetta, attenta, gentile e, anche lei sempre pronta. E poi è necessario dedicare qualche riga anche al ristorante, gestito egregiamente da Valeria e Bruno! Cibo italiano della migliore qualità, pizza e focaccia stupende e qualche ricetta locale altrettanto buona. Valeria e Bruno ce la mettono tutta, nonostante le difficoltà del luogo (scarsa elettricità, difficoltà a reperire le materie prime) e anche loro sono sempre pronti a soddisfare ogni desiderio! Insomma una vacanza breve in un posto bellissimo con tante coccole da parte di tutto il team di Milele. Da raccomandare assolutamente!
