After two weeks spent on Kilimanjaro and safari, we were looking for a resort to relax and enjoy our time together. And this was the perfect place. The private bungalow was beautiful, spacious and clean with a nice terrace and direct access to the beach. People, food and wellness facilities were above our expectations. We enjoyed a live concert in one of the evenings and had a private yoga session. We could have not ended our vacation in a better place/way.

    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.

    We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Sevi Boutique Hotel. A heartfelt thank you for the warm and thoughtful welcome! This little slice of paradise in Zanzibar allowed us to completely disconnect — the place is stunning, peaceful, and far from all the chaos. The setting is idyllic, the beach is beautiful, and the service was truly outstanding. Every detail was taken care of, and we really appreciated all the kind gestures throughout our stay. Thank you again for everything — we leave fully rested and with wonderful memories!

    The photos don’t do justice to this hotel and its true experience. The views and surroundings are absolutely breathtaking — from the pool overlooking the ocean to the private beach access, everything felt like a dream. The service was excellent, and the rooms with private pools are simply out of this world. You can’t come to Matemwe without experiencing Kasha!
