WHY CHOOSE MATEMWE BEACH HOUSE? Exclusive and private location, perfect for small groups and families Personalised service and warm, Zanzibari hospitality Ultimate relaxation with a private terrace and swimming pool Direct access to the beach and a variety of watersport activities

Neighborhood info

Matemwe Lodge, Matemwe Retreat and Matemwe Beach House are situated on the north east coast of the island where the mood and pace is quieter and more relaxed. The Matemwe experience is genuine ‘island-style’ because Matemwe village is the hub for all local activity in the area. It is the third largest fishing village on Zanzibar and life there carries on as it has since time immemorial. As casual bystanders, guests can watch the fascinating daily routine of the village play itself out from the ocean and the outlying fields, onto the streets and into the local marketplace. A short boat ride away from Matemwe is Mnemba Atoll, a private island that is recognised as one the world’s premier diving destinations. Because the area is a marine reserve, the scuba diving and snorkelling off Mnemba is nothing short of spectacular
