This church-run place has simple but spotless and pleasant rooms with fans and verandahs, and meals on order. It’s just back from the sea, and about 1km from the bus stand (Tsh2000 in a taxi). From the bus stand head straight towards the coast, cross the tarmac Pangani road and follow the signs, bearing right at the fork.
