As a couple travelling to Matemwe, we stayed in room called Banda1 consisting of two rooms: one double bed and one single bed and a private toilet. This is by far the best option at this hotel providing a private terrace and private entry from beach. Magical. A second choice at this hotel would have to be room Baharini1. What I enjoyed most about this hotel is the room Banda 1 itself as well as the friendly staff. The rooms are clean and quite. I have noticed here complaints about the transparent curtains and yes, the do let a lot of light in and it seem not to provide privacy but it is impossible during the day from the outside to glance into the rooms with the curtains closed. So not to worry. This establishment also has a newly built pool. Another strong point about this hotel is its garden and flora. This hotel gives back to the community by engaging the local community of Matemwe. Overall I would recommend this establishment if you decide to stay in quite and peaceful Matemwe.

Wonderful resort, bungalows located in a beautiful garden, respecting each other privacy. We had the ocean front bungalow, it was magic to wake up by the sun shining onto your bed with direct view of the ocean. Very nice pool, very friendly and helpful staff. Very quiet!

We liked the location direct on the beach. The breakfast was very good and the staff very friendly. The kids also liked the pool because during low tide it is not possible to go swimming in the sea.

“Not reliable.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveller
- • Stayed 4 nights
- They forgot my airport transfer: I waited 35 minutes and then took another (more expansive) taxi - Shower absolute rubbish: They warn you that it takes a while for the water to heat up which is fine, but you are lucky when you get any water at all. The water pressure is almost non-existant and then sometimes it turns off completely. - Wifi not good in the room (actually stronger at the beach...)
- Great location with direct access to the beach - Staff very helpful with a problem that I had

“Magical private terrace and private access to room from beach”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 5 nights
The down side to this hotel is an expensive restaurant and no possibility to request a cash-back service at reception. As this was my third trip to Zanzibar, it is sometimes possible in Zanzibar to ask for cash-back service at the reception and request to be billed at checkout and pay by card. Therefore, you can run into difficulties when you run out of cash. The nearest cash-back services along with one ATM is in Nungwi. To go around the expensive restaurant, I can highly recommend two local places in the village with great prices: Furaha restaurant and Garden Bob Swahili restaurant.

Although it's nice to wake up with the sun, we would have appreciated less transparent curtains... A little more variety on the breakfast menu would have been nice.

The quality of the breakfast buffet was a bit up and down, but the fresh fruit and the juice is always great.
Staying at Panga Chumvi was a great experience! We came there to completely unwind, relax and re-charge the batteries, and we succeeded with all three big time. The location is great, there area is nice and big and the beach is super lovely - and quiet. The staff is super sweet and helpful, the room was thoroughly cleaned every day and the food is really good as well. Tip: Get up early and check out the stunning sunrise!
