Shanuo Beach Bungalows
Michamvi Pingwe, Zanzibar, Tanzania · Show on map
About this property
Shanuo Beach Bungalows sits directly on the fine white sand of Michamvi Pingwe, one of Zanzibar’s most beautiful beaches, a short walk from The Rock. It describes itself simply: not a resort, no luxury – just space, breeze, comfort and care, Zanzibar as it is.
The bungalows are a few steps from the ocean amid palm trees and village life, cooled by the sea breeze rather than air conditioning, with ceiling fans, mosquito nets, private bathrooms with refillable toiletries and high-speed Wi-Fi. Rooms range from garden-level doubles and triples to upstairs ocean-view rooms, a family room and a two-room apartment, and breakfast is served on your terrace.
The team, led by Gillian, arranges unhurried, fairly priced experiences: sailing on a traditional dhow, snorkelling over the reef, cooking with a local family and walks through Michamvi village. The property avoids single-use plastics, and Masai night security watches the grounds after dark.
