This place is as beautiful as the pictures. The staff is very warm/ friendly and very welcoming. The hotel is very clean. The breakfast selection was good. The hotel is at the beach front so u wake up to sea views ( sea facing rooms) and could take morning / early evening walks🌅. You can book your activities through the hotel. Most importantly the hotel is family friendly as well. Sea food platter was delicious 🤩

Very good breakfast selection with fresh fruits and juice. If we ever return to Zanzibar we'd definitely choose this hotel again. Right on the beach, very secure, superb swimming pool, with the best restaurant in the area. The staff is always smiling and friendly. Everything was spotless clean. The owners were extremely nice, really made us feel at home like family. Thanks for everything!

*Room was super clean and large enough to fit a small family. *The breakfast menu was comprehensive and made to order. Restaurant opens at 8am but they will fix you a pre-packed breakfast if you are out and about in the morning. *Lunch and dinner had plenty of options even for people with dietary requirements. *The pool area and the pool itself was cleaned daily. *Plenty of games and other activities to do throughout the compound as well as bicycles available for hire for a small fee. *The real gem is the team managing and taking care of you at the hotel. The hospitality is exceptional and you are always met with a smile. I felt welcome and very well taken care of. Thank you for hosting me.

Matemwe is a perfect destination for anyone who wants peace and quiet, but still has access to great activities. You can easily arrange dolphin watching and swimming tours – look for Captain Lucho, he helped us with everything and made the experience amazing. A beautiful and relaxing place to stay!

Matemwe was nice - the beach part.

Matemwe was nice - the beach part. Sad to see the poverty behind the gates of the hotel. The tides were a bit different from what we have expected as the water would leave the beach at 9am and return around 5pm. If you did not make it to swim early in the morning, you missed it. We took a reef walk which was beautiful, saw a lot of see creatures, and that was very amazing experience. Also took a boat tour to see the sunset - it was worth the trip. Did not like how the locals would just stop on the beach and start shouting at you to buy smth. Also the part of the hotel beach is not segregated in any way, which does not give you a privacy enough. The food was amazing though - the hotel goes much beyond - and all day brekfast concept was amazing.

Matemwe is ideal for relaxing and spending quality time with friends and family. Matemwe is near Mnemba island 🏝️ for swimming with dolphins 🐬 . We rode bicycles 🚲 around the village and the place felt very safe. There are few alternative places for lunch or dinner. Not too far from stone town.

The snorkeling was a true adventure, with well-protected marine life and crystal-clear water. Spotting the dolphins was an unexpected bonus! Visiting the sea turtle rehabilitation center and feeding them was a special experience.

Matemwe beach was huge and totally uncrowded - some days we were lucky to see 10 - 20 people pass by! Loved the Massai beach hawkers - friendly and laid back happy to have their pictures taken - no hassle or relentless chasing - once told 'no' they respected our space. Recommend a day trip to Nungwi for a completely different vibe and fantastic sunset. Matemwe is somewhat isolated and if you want to get around you need to secure the number of a local taxi driver - always bargain hard beforehand. Most hotels organise trips/tours but at a premium.

It was a quieter beach which was nice which also meant not too many people hassling you to buy things. Those that did were respectful. Beach is nice but the sea depth is very shallow most of the day so swimming wasn't the easiest and there was a lot of seaweed when we were there.

The restaurant of the hotel is exceptional. By far the best food we had in Zanzibar. The menu is both sophisticated yet simple, it has plenty of choices with very fresh ingredients and really well cooked dishes. Definitely a highlight of our stay. The hotel is clearly run in a very ethical way with a clear ambition to give back to the local community and reduce its environmental impact which was really appreciable. Loved the tours that were organised with local guides, loved the kindness and dedication of the staff.

We loved the cosy and intimate environment of the Marafiki Beach Hotel. It's a place to unwind and relax from the hustle and bustle and enjoy quiet time to soak up the sun, read a good book, take a dip in the pool or go for a walk on the beach. The hotel management has a welcome personal touch and the staff are friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious and tastefullly furnished. From our balcony we enjoyed a wonderful view of the ocean!

What a gorgeous villa. An absolute paradise, right on the Indian Ocean. The decor is stunning with a wonderful combination of polished concrete and wood. Air conditioning in each bedroom and a welcome pool. Staff were very helpful with booking transfers. Plenty of restaurants along the beach, Zanzibar Queen being our favourite. A perfect spot for a getaway. Would love to go back.
