At the bed and breakfast, the rooms come with a balcony with pool view. All rooms include a private bathroom. All guest rooms will provide guests with a desk and a kettle.

Georgia and their team are absolutely stunning. The people, working in the restaurant are attentive to details (opened my bottle, refilled the juice or helps to remove the bee from the table, silly stupid things but they truly took care of me) I ate here the best pancake on the island - it wasn’t oily and partially raw. They serve the scrambled eggs like a carpaccio - love it too! And the morning goey bites, were lovely! I loved the atmosphere of the entire accommodation, I had a tricky issue in the swimming pool - watch your step, one of the side is so deep 😆 The bed is so large and comfy, I slept like a baby.

Boasting garden views, Morningstar Bungalows Zanzibar offers accommodation with a garden and a terrace, around a few steps from Matemwe Beach. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a housekeeping service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The property was at an excellent location and Roxana, the host was super flexible and helpful. She advised us on many many things from the airport transfer to arranging tours and restaurants to visit as well. Even though breakfast was the same every day (toast, eggs, fruit salad) it was always substantial and tasty. The beach is very close with lots of places (hotels, restaurants) to visit and even spend the day at. There is a dog and a cat at the property both being extremely friendly as well. We would certainly go back here if we were to visit Zanzibar again!

Featuring free WiFi, Mohammed Bungalows and Restuarant offers accommodation in Matemwe, 38 km from Zanzibar City. The guest house has a sun terrace and a private beach area, and guests can enjoy a meal at the restaurant or a drink at the bar.

Everything about Mohammed Bungalows was great. Location in the wonderful setting of Matemwe right on the beach, room which was specious and had everything we needed, vicinity to scuba diving sites and water based activities such as paddling and snorkelling. But most of all the staff and Mohammed’s family who were so welcoming and made us feel really at home. Not to mention that Mohammed is a fantastic cook and the meals we had were superb. We loved everything about our stay and highly recommended.

The units at the bed and breakfast are equipped with a seating area. The bed and breakfast offers certain units that include a balcony and quiet street view, and every unit has a private bathroom and a desk. At the bed and breakfast, all units come with bed linen and towels.

I would recommend this accommodation. The property is definitely a new building, with outstanding open space outside and really big and modern apartaments. The location is very good: 150m from the beach and 500m from the center town, all at walking distance in few minutes. The view from the terrace is really great: you can relax in the morning and enjoy a good breakfast (European with mixed Zanzibar fruit) while enjoying the seaside view. There is no Wi-Fi in the building, but as suggested by Ali (the local guide), I have bought the local SIM card in the city center close to the apartment and it was working perfectly. Due to lack of time, I didn’t have time to enjoy the several experiences that Ali suggested me during the staying. I had an amazing vacation in Blue Villa Zanzibar, enjoying the pole pole Zanzibar philosophy. I would definitely come back

    Zanzibar Magic Boutique hotel was the perfect stop on our honeymoon to Zanzibar. The staff were so friendly, the food amazing and the location was right on the beachfront. Matemwe beach is quieter than Nungwi or kendwa but the sea was lovely to swim in.

    Very intimate boutique feel. Resturant area, live music and bar was very unique. Excellent food, in particular the sea food. Very friendly and helpful staff - in particular Musa and Savannah. My wife needed extra privacy for the private plunge pool in the bungalow so the staff promptly fitted a wall with a door outside the property in order to provide 100% privacy for her.

    A great, calm, boutique hotel. Design perfectly fits the surroundings - this is not just a block of flat like many hotels, but very good melted into background buildings, still providing comfort and a premium level of quality. Very helpful personnel and management. Great private excursions organized by Osman, which is great tour guide, as well as very carefully takes care of you during the trip.

    Small boutique hotel. Very clean. Large rooms. Friendly staff. Yaya and Ahmed will go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. Situated in a very quiet area. Matemwe is great if you want to unwind and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
