Among the facilities of this property are a restaurant, full-day security and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. Every room comes with a balcony with pool views. My recent stay at Chiunga Changa Villa was pure bliss. Tucked away with a view of Mnemba Island, this villa is all about luxury. The private pool was a highlight, offering a serene spot to relax. Plus, the view of Mnemba Island added an extra touch of magic. Sabrina and her team made sure everything was perfect. They were attentive and friendly, making me feel right at home. The villa itself is stunning, blending modern style with cozy vibes. And being close to Bill Gates' private island was pretty cool too. In short, Chiunga Changa Villa is a dream retreat. With its private pool, gorgeous views, and top-notch service, it's a place I won't soon forget.
