Located in Makunduchi, 38 km from Jozani Forest, Almas Beach Boutique Hotel provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. Featuring a bar, the 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The accommodation features room service, luggage storage space and currency exchange for guests.

When we were looking for suitable accommodation for our vacation, my wife and I could not agree on a place. She preferred the east coast and I preferred the west of the island. In the end, we compromised and chose the south. And we did well. Almas Beach Boutique Resort is a real gem. If you're looking for peace, you don't want a tourist-exposed place, you want an almost virgin beach, this is the right place for you! The resort consists of 10 bungalows, which are located right on the beach, among coconut palms and other vegetation. The bungalows are functionally furnished, have air conditioning, a safe, and basic accessories. The bathroom is large and well designed. There are two deckchairs in the front house, which we used often. By choosing the place, we exactly met our expectations, the place even slightly exceeded them. I would also like to say a few words to the people who take care of the comfort and convenience of the guests. First and foremost is Aleks, the owner and manager in one person. His exemplary care for guests and the entire campus is truly exceptional! He has incredible energy and an absolute pro-customer attitude. Get advice from him, or even organize trips or other activities on the island, and you will be delighted. In particular, a day trip for dolphins, corals, star fishes, guarezas combined with a fish picnic is unforgettable! The other staff are also incredibly friendly. The girls Alfonsina and Eva who work in the restaurant, as well as their colleague Alen, are real professionals, working with enthusiasm and always in a good mood. I mentioned the restaurant. The choice of food is indeed more than sufficient. And I definitely recommend trying the specialties of Swahili cuisine. And if you have any special request, don't be afraid to ask about it. They will do everything to fulfill it for you!

    Nice, quiet and cozy small hotel of 10 seafront bungalows with a huge pool overlooking the azure color of the Indian ocean. The beach in front is clean with an amazing white sand and full WLAN coverage. Apart from an superb ocean view from your bed, you enjoy full privacy in this hotel as the bungalows are separated by a nice distance. It is brandnew and a very clean hotel with a modern bathroom. The staff is heartwarming and pleasant, the food was tasty, with a healthy menu and on time.
