An absolute perfect stay and amazing location! Right by the beach with tons of incredible restaurants and shopping including art galleries with gorgeous local artworks for sale. The owner and the staff are among the warmest kindest humans I have ever met in a hotel setting and I truly enjoyed interacting and engaging with them. They serve the best juice here and the hotel itself is just lovely, naturesque and peaceful. I will definitely be back 💜

The property owner went above and beyond to make the stay as easy as possible. He arranged taxi’s, places to store luggage, and had a connection for anything you wanted to do. The property was just across from the beach and great spots to eat and drink! Would stay here again!

Home away from home Cozy, welcoming and everything I needed - that’s my stay at Cocolala in a nutshell. Huge, clean and well equipped bedroom and bathroom. A peaceful hotel that is literally steps to a great swimming beach (you can swim seaweed free any time if day) restaurants, activities and shops. Huge hot breakfasts (I could never finish at one sitting). Hammocks in the garden for lazing around. Most of all Cora, Mohammed and Sebastian were gracious hosts. They gave me helpful recommendations for where to swim, local places to eat and the best prices for beach chairs. They connected me with a Budabuda (motorcycle taxi) so I could explore town. And all at a reasonable price. I highly recommend Cocolala. I’ll be staying there if I return to Zanibar.

Koslig, lite hotell rett ved stranden- anbefales på det sterkeste. Store rom, rent og fint, og kjempegod frokost. Stor takk til Mohamed, Sebastian og Karola som fikk oss til å føle oss så velkomne. De var behjelpelig med alt, fra å vise oss hvor det var best å snorkle i Nungwi, til å skaffe oss den beste guiden, Abbas, i Steinbyen.

Excellent accueil de la part du personnel et spécialement de la part de Mohammed, le manager. L'hôtel est très bien situé, en bord de plage et il y a de nombreux restaurants et boutiques. Je recommande l'hôtel, excellent rapport qualité prix. Je remercie Mohammed car il a fait son maximum pour nous trouver des activités et excursions à bas prix. Au top!
