So incredibly happy I stumbled upon this gem of a hotel to stay for my birthday! It was absolute perfection. The hotel itself is so well kept, the pool, the amenities! Cannot find a single fault even if I tried. Communication before and during my stay made everything booked so seamless and made the trip so relaxing. The most memorable part apart from the stunning views were the incredible staff. From the moment we arrived we felt so welcomed and closely attended to. Everyone was so attentive, warm and kind. The owners have definitely created a experience that far exceeds five star hotels and I would highly recommend to anyone. Looking forward to return!

I had an exceptional hotel experience that truly stands out as one of the best I've ever had. From the moment I arrived for my three-day online workshop, I was impressed by the superior internet connectivity, which outperformed even that of my home in Zurich, Switzerland. The room was a masterpiece of thoughtful design, with each detail crafted with love and purpose. The service was outstanding, exceeding all expectations. The culinary delights prepared by the kitchen, along with the warm hospitality of the great owner, added to the overall excellence of my stay. This oasis of peace in Zanzibar is a place I wholeheartedly recommend to all my friends. A heartfelt thank you for such perfection. Well done! ♥️🙏💯

What can I say that others haven't already said?! Staying at the Matlai Hotel is an absolute dream, I would rate it in the top 5 places I have stayed in the world, a truly personalised experience. From the exceptional service provided by the butlers, to the utter beauty of the property, the landscaping, the huge rooms and bathrooms, the stunning beach, the sunrise views, and the food, to the private cinema room, the housekeeping service, the tranquility and peace, it is almost indescribable. I cried the night before I left, if you have a chance to stay here, take it, it was truly magical. I don't believe there is anywhere else on the island to compare to this, we left feeling like they were our family, and our every wish was provided for and our dreams came true.

This hotel is insane. It doesn’t feel like a hotel. More like a villa surrounded with trees, a beautiful pool with a 2mns walk to the beach. If you’re after privacy, excellent service, this is the place. The staff adds so much joy to this beautiful place.. very friendly, accomodating. Nothing is too much for them. Great at advising and help you organise your activities.

The most incredible hotel, absolute perfection. Staff were friendly and attentive. Rooms are lovely, beautifully decorated and hugely comfortable. Property maintained incredibly. Food diverse and tasty with dinner served into wonderful “surprise” locations. Cinema was so lovely. Touches like choosing bath salts, room scents, gorgeous leaving gift and bedtime stories just enchanting. Head butler Eustus and his team are beyond amazing and the welcome from Tim and his assistant manager phenomenal.

The staff is beyond friendly and helpful. The room was great, bed was very comfy and a big bathroom with great shower and buthtub. The hotel is very private and there are many great places to sunbath and relax. Breakfast is served on your balcony, which makes it also very private. Wide range of possibilites to chose from. Dinner is served wherever one wants it. Overall great food. The beach is clean, one can snorkel (best at low tide) and go to the sandbank just in front of the hotel. Overall we had an outstanding stay and totally recommend staying at Matlai.
