Gaia Villas

We had an amazing stay at Gaia Villas and enjoyed every moment! The villa was fantastic, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful – a special mention to Issayah, who went above and beyond to assist us with everything we needed. From arranging transport and tuk-tuks to preparing breakfast a little earlier for our dive trips, they truly made our stay effortless. The location is perfect – just a short walk to the beach, and if you’re diving with Spanish Dancer Divers, you can take a shortcut through a nearby hotel, making it only a 5-minute walk. After our dives, we loved relaxing by the pool, which we almost always had to ourselves. The breakfasts were the best we had in Zanzibar – always fresh and delicious. From amazing bread and breakfast burritos to fresh fruits, juices, and excellent coffee, it was the perfect way to start the day. A big thank you to Tania for the excellent communication throughout our stay! Gaia Villas is ideal for couples or small groups. The location is also great, with small shops nearby offering fair prices, a money changer close by, and tuk-tuks readily available. We’d highly recommend Gaia Villas for anyone visiting Nungwi!

Gaia Villas is an absolute gem. The location is unbeatable, just a 5-minute walk to the beach and close to all restaurants. Once you step inside, you’re transported into a true paradise, lush garden, refreshing pool, and comfortable rooms create a peaceful retreat that’s perfect for unwinding. The breakfast is fantastic, definitely don’t miss it! The owners are incredibly welcoming and friendly, making you feel right at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to relax in a beautiful, serene setting.

From the outside, it doesn't look like much, due to a rather noisy neighborhood. But as soon as you enter, this place is Z-E-N. An incredible serenity emanates from the vegetation surrounding a central swimming pool. 1000 to 1500 m², that's all, but structured with so much love and patience that it feels much larger. The relaxation here is complete. No lunch or dinner but an excellent breakfast with homemade bread of a quality impossible to find elsewhere. The hostess is welcoming and kind - when my son had an anxiety attack, she naturally offered to take us to the clinic and waited for more than an hour in her car until we came out. Thank you Tania for your hospitality and congratulations again for creating this haven of peace.ged

Relaxing stay in a secure quiet environment. Small number of units Clean, fresh units. Lovely gardens, and pool, The Brest Breakfast on our trip! Hardly to the beach and restaurants, yet off the main tourist drag. Friendly staff - happy to assist with advice Highly recommended 😀

This is a beautiful property in Nungwi. We had a 2 room villa which was big enough for three adults. The host Tania and everyone working at the villas are all super friendly and made our stay special. It is very close to beach and there’s a small pool in the hotel. The garden is heavenly and breakfast is really good. We recommend to everyone to stay at this place

We have been amazed by friendliness, great hospitality and very nice atmosphere in Gaia Villas. The room was big just enough, cleaned every day and it was very quiet. We had there the best breakfasts we ever had in Zanzibar! The selection is very large. We enjoyed how peacefull this place is. It's like a relaxing oasis in Nungwi. You can chill there at the pool, surrounded by many big and green plants and colourful flowers. And this all thanks to hard work and friendly attitude of Tanya, Nirid and the rest of the staff. If we go to Nungwi in future, we will definitely come back to Gaia Villas!
