Pemba Misali Sunset Beach — Hotel in Pemba

You need to be in the right mindset to enjoy this place. Me: I had been on Pemba for several days and unable to find a beer anywhere. So it was a dream come true.||||The beach is not really a beach so much as mangrove shoreline, and you look out over the tanker terminal where gasoline is imported to Pemba.

The rooms are small, clean but have no Charme. Overall there is no vibe in that place. It could be a wonderful place but just given the circumstances that there is no competition in that area makes the owner to just don't care about...
