9.4 out of 10, Exceptional, (3 reviews)
"The property was in a good location to get to Stone Town and the ferry. Booking thru Expedia led to some confusion at checkout as their Expedia payment system was initially declined so we had to go on Expedia chat followed by a phone call to the facility to straighten everything out. Expedia could make that process much less confusing. The included breakfast was a nice treat and while I mostly take the stairs, the elevator was not working for half our stay. Overall though the stay was lovely...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Ng'Ambo?
For most visitors to Ng'Ambo, the best area to stay is Stone Town, which is the historic core of the city.

Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its winding alleyways, coral stone buildings, and intricately carved wooden doors. It's a compact and walkable area, with landmarks like the Old Fort, Forodhani Gardens, and the House of Wonders all within easy reach. The main streets like Creek Road and Kenyatta Road define the edges of its most popular sections.

Couples often find Stone Town ideal for a romantic trip. The narrow streets are great for leisurely strolls, discovering hidden courtyards and rooftop restaurants with views of the Indian Ocean. The evening food market at Forodhani Gardens offers a unique dining experience right on the waterfront.

Solo travellers will also appreciate Stone Town for its accessibility and the sheer number of guesthouses and boutique hotels.
When is the best time to go to Ng'Ambo?
The best time to visit Ng'Ambo is during the dry seasons, which run from December to February and again from June to October.

These months offer consistently sunny skies and pleasant temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the historic Stone Town and relaxing on the nearby beaches. You'll find less humidity and generally calm waters for activities like snorkelling and diving.

Travellers looking for a beach holiday will appreciate the December to February period. The weather is superb for sunbathing and swimming, and the sea breezes keep things comfortable. It's a popular time, so booking your accommodation and any excursions in advance is a good idea.

For those interested in exploring the cultural and historical sites of Ng'Ambo, the June to October dry season is excellent. The cooler temperatures make walking around Stone Town more comfortable, and you'll still enjoy plenty of sunshine for day trips to spice farms or other attractions.
