Even though the hotel has just opened, we had a great stay experience. The hotel was very nice and clean. The managers of the hotel, Mr. Thomas and his wife, are wonderful people. Apart from our accommodation, they helped us a lot with the excursions in Tanzania. I would like to thank them very much for giving us a wonderful holiday experience.

Perfect vacation. Location was good, food was very exquisite. Swiming with dolphins was in front of the hotel. Turtles zoo was only 30 minutes away. And the most warm welcome ever experienced from Leigh. She was very helpful in every our request and made our vacation delightful.

The staff was really wonderful, friendly, and helpful. My partner was a bit unwell, so they instantly arranged for a doctor to come for a consultation. Dr. Mohammad was great, and reassuring, even sent us some medicine and followed up after, which really helped my partner recover fast and made our visit very relaxed. The place is beautiful! The beach stunning!! The rooms are very clean, comfortable and spacious. They are designed to provide privacy together with a direct view of the sea, with the beautiful sound of waves at night and early morning, which makes it very special. We loved the fact that all materials used and architectural designs of the hotel were all local. Would highly recommend.

this is a fantastically quiet and hidden place with three cascading pools and a private beach with a view on some picturesque rocks. we had a three years old with us and loved it here. the rooms are cleaned very day, at times even two times, and sprayed with mosquito spray. there is air condition and a system in place against electricity outages. one can walk on the beach by low waters endlessly and, equipped with water shoes, provided by the hotel, do some weave jumping. the restaurant was good, they left no wishes open, and the staff marvellous. we loved all of it so much so that we extended our stay by two more days. thanks sunshine bay. and we look forward to checking out the massages tomorrow!

    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.

    It’s very quiet, very few non hotel restaurants, overpriced food everywhere, can’t swim in the sea unless you don’t mind knee deep water. There’s no town, or town centre outside the beach hotels, so a long stay would be challenging if you want more than just lounging by the hotel pool.

    Matemwe and its area is a quiet place where you can relax and enjoy the beach, the activities (snorkeling, swimming with dolphins) especially if you are a couple, because the village is not very full of enterteinments or night parties.

    Everything was just perfect here: the location, facilities, staff, super fresh (sea)food, atmosphere, the pool, the pergola shades with sunbeds, outside shower and (last but not least) the beach. Very quiet place too. Free wifi everywhere, towels for the sunbeds, drinks served at the pool, you name it. If we make it back to Zanzibar we will for sure come back here.
