Everything at fun beach was above our expectations. The rooms are very clean. The grounds and ocean view are spectacular, and the staff is the best, very welcoming and courteous. Margaret, who set up our day trips is the best and very easy to talk with. Rachel at the bar and restaurant is exceptional. She remembers the guests by name and is always smiling and cheerful. All the staff here are always greeting us with Jambo Jambo and asking if we need anything, and when we say everthing is great, it’s Hakuna matata. The pools are wonderful with the main pool by the seating area covered so you can enjoy the water all day without looking like a lobster on someone’s plate. We had 3 nights booked and were going to go to Nungwi, but after our 3 nights we did not want to leave. We were able to extend our stay another 4 nights. We are in the hospitality business also. We can not say enough about Fun Beach Hotel and staff!

Boa estadia mas não perfeita

A nossa estadia no Fun Beach em geral foi boa, no entanto, não classifico como excelente pois durante a nossa estadia nunca conseguimos tomar banho de agua quente e achámos que o staff no geral podia ser mais simpático e solicito na resolução de problemas. No caso da agua, tivemos que noa deslocar à recepção por tres vezes durante o dia e só a terceira vez e já sem estarmos muito satisfeitos é que disseram que iriam resolver. No entanto nunca ficou resolvido. Na altura em que estivemos choveu bastante e por isso não estavam aqueles dias de calor abrasador que poderiam ter ajudado a que tomar banho de agua fria não fosse um sacrificio. O hotel é muito bonito. Os quartos também, mas achámos que a maior parte do staff não tinha muita formação. Alguns falavam mal o inglês e poucos foram os que achámos realmente simpáticos. A piscina principal é fabulosa e a zona de praia quando a maré enche também é boa. No entanto, quem for para aqui terá poucas horas de maré cheia pelo que aconselho este hotel para quem gostar mais de piscina. A comida no hotel é boa mas o buffet do pequeno almoço achámos que podia ter um pouco mais de variedade.

Séjour reposant

Le personnel est vraiment adorable et aux petits soins, on se sent vite comme à la maison. La chambre est correcte, le lit confortable surtout les oreillers, même si la chambre n’est pas du pas du grand luxe. L’extérieur est magnifique : deux grandes piscines propres dont une avec vu sur mer ,plantes, fleurs… n’oubliez pas votre anti moustiques même si il est mis deux fois par jour dans la chambre. Les grottes ne sont pas loin et sont à visiter absolument. Petit déjeuner varié avec crêpes, œufs, fruits, plats chauds, thé, café… top pour bien démarrer la journée !

À recommander, valeur sûre.

Excellent hôtel à l’ambiance familiale dans une zone calme et en bord de mer.
Les logements sont jolis, modernes, bien équipés (climatisation et moustiquaire) et l’établissement de manière générale est très bien entretenu.
Les piscines sont au nombre de 3, dont une partie ombragée (ce qui est un gros plus si vous voyagez avec des enfants).
Le restaurant de l’hôtel propose des plats variés (fruits de mer, burgers, salades, plats locaux) pour des prix corrects (entre 8 et 14$).
Enfin le personnel de l’hôtel est amical et souriant, tout est fait pour que le séjour se passe à merveille.
Bonus, sur la plage il y a différents bars et restaurants qui offrent la possibilité d’une escapade à pied en journée ou en soirée.
