Makofi Guest House

Nungwi Beach, Nungwi

Makofi Guest House is located in Nungwi, 200 metres from Spanish Dancer Divers. The property offers free WIFI in the common areas and is 100 meters from Nungwi beach.

World Wide Supermarket is 200 metres from Makofi Guest House, while Baobab Tree is 300 metres away. The nearest airport is Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, 55 km from the property. When in Nungwi, this is the place to be! I stayed there for a week and it was still way to short. I could stay there forever. The minute you arrive, this place feels like home. The atmosphere there is just amazing. Perfect location, just a short walk to the beach, to party places or to amazing local restaurants. Everything is so close. But it is still a very quiet place, so you can get a very good sleep. Staff is so friendly and will help you with everything. Breakfast is amazing. And I also highly recommend to try the BBQ party they organize twice a week.
