Guest reviews for Raphy Home
"I had such a wonderful experience here! Raphy was incredibly kind, generous, and always ready to help with anything I needed. He really went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and welcome. The place itself is cozy, clean, and in a perfect location, just a short walk from a very calm and almost empty beach with beautiful sandbanks! The center of Nungwi and busy beaches are a 30 minute walk but it’s also very easy to find transport there. I can’t recommend Raphy Home enough!"

"We had a wonderful stay at Raphy's. Everything was just like the photos, and he was always available for any questions or information. I recommend Raphy Home to couples or friends, for a truly authentic Zanzibar stay."

"Super relaxing stay, plenty of couches and hammocks to chill on as you look out over a quieter part of northern Zanzibar. Raphy is a great dude, was super helpful for me with ordering motercycle food from a local spot (Mama africa) and when a local buys it its even cheaper than the already cheap price. First washing machine I've come across in east africa!"
"No complaints it was great!"

"Very nice hotel! There was a kitchen that we could use, a lounge with hammocks, and the rooms was very clean. Raphy was a helpful host. By foot, it takes about 15 min to the nearest beach, and about 35 min to the main Nungwi beach."

"Veramente favoloso! La posizione è perfetta per raggiungere il nyerere National park. Il proprietario è gentilissimo e molto disponibile, ha organizzato per noi la visita al parco. Anche lo staff è preparato e gentilissimo. Lavorano al campo anche dei Masai che ti accompagnao la sera in camera e ti aiutano con le valige. La struttura affaccia direttamente sul fiume in una posizione sicura e rialzata e da qui si può organizzare un safari in barca della durata di circa due ore in cui si possono vedere coccodrilli, vari tipi di uccelli e ippopotami. La vista dalla camera è dalla zona comune è spettacolare. La camera è pulita e spaziosa e con una vista meravigliosa. Ulteriore nota positiva è il cibo, cucinato internamente sul fuoco e veramente buonissimo. Ogni dettaglio del campo, dagli alloggi alla cucina, è curato e garantisce un'esperienza immersiva. Riassumendo....meraviglioso e fortemente consigliato."

"Friendly host, clean and spacious room, perfect location for a flight (and still just 15 min by car to the city center). Would stay again!"

"The value here was phenomenal. Nice hotel right next to the center of Stonetown but off the main tourist path enough that it feels quiet and secluded. Great shower and decent size room."
"Clean and the hosts always available for anything needed."
