Fatuma: A Warm Swahili Room in the Heart of Nungwi

Fatuma is one of the best-loved names on the Swahili coast, the name of grandmothers, aunties and the strong women who keep a house running. This room has that same warm, steady feeling. At 22 m², with a king-size bed and a single bed, Fatuma welcomes three: a couple and a friend, a small family, or travel companions who'd rather share a room than miss a moment.
