Mawimbini Beach, Chuini, Zanzibar City, Tanzania – Great location - show map
Location on the beach and view was fabulous! Staff and hostess very attentive. Facilities perfect in every regard. Landscaping preserved the African experience. We wee met at the airport by the hotel van and returned as well. Exceptional value for the cost! 5 Star Plus
United States of AmericaThe overall landscaping and architecture of the lodge was amazing, so many fun places to explore on the property and around, including a very cool harbor, beach, and village. Loved the pool area, and so many other relaxing places to hang out. The food was also incredible, and the staff and owners were super accommodating with logistical issues and for arranging excursions and taxis.
United States of AmericaThe stay from start to finish was great. We were warmly greeted at the reception at the reception with a complimentary cold beverage and assisted with luggage. The menu provides both local and international dishes and prices are very reasonable. The couple that own the property were gracious and accommodating to our every need. They went above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were met. I hope to return in the near future and would highly recommend Mongrove as the place to stay in Zanzibar.
