It is commendable how just within about a month of operations the resort has achieved so much! We were there for about 8 nights. And it was amazingly peaceful. From a lovely beach view, access to the ocean at all hours, friendly staff to the care and attention we got, the stay and our experience was superlative. A special mention to the Chef and his kitchen staff who make 5-star rated food available to every guest for all meals. The presentation to the taste, we used to keep waiting for the day's special everyday. One of the most memorable holidays we have had and definitely going back soon to experience this rendezvous with nature in the best possible setting. Went as strangers, came back missing friends at Zanzibar.

This is my first 10 given on Booking.com, but this vacation definitely deserves it. Vacation means people, location and resort all together. Malgo, Tomek and their full Dream Team is the first key component of the amazing days we spent there: saying that we felt truly at home would for sure not be an overstatement. I believe there is no need to add anything more about this. Location of the resort is excellent: right on the beach, a clean beach by the way (a plus for them, given what we have seen elsewhere). We enjoyed a lot the walks to the reef during low tide, celebrated with final unusual urchins meals: nice swimmings during high tide. Mnemba island, with some of the best snorkeling sites in Zanzibar, is just 30-40 minutes away. Finally, the resort: right size (not more than 20 rooms), nicely organized, simple but elegant architecture, sea view from all rooms, very nice 25 m swimming pool in the center (with separate lane for whoever wants to swim), massage facilities... and more. Our room was very spacious, pleasant, relaxing: and always extremely clean. Ask for Paradise Room if you go there :-) Restaurant is also a plus for this place, with possibility to eat at any time during the day: food was very good, mostly local (as it should be) but also with international cuisine options, great variety which allows to try different foods for the entire week.

The room was very big, a lot of space, same for the bathroom, the bed was comfortable, in the morning we got an amazing breakfast, the staff is very nice, and the owner as well. We stayed only one night, so we didn't had time to talk much with the staff, but we will come back for sure.

    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 love this place. Firstly, Matemwe is a relatively quiet spot and the lodge opens up to the beach. You can spend all day just watching life happen or go for a swim/snorkel at high tide or get on a boat to snorkel further out beyond the reef. Secondly the space is comfortable and clean. The staff and the owner are also fantastic…friendly and attentive. The buffet breakfast is great too.

    Fantastic location of the hotel in the middle of a local village at the beach. Perfect host with the warmest welcome you can imagine and the way every single staff members treat you makes you feel king and queen. Amazing white beach in front of you with the magical sound of the waves of the Indian Ocean makes it a paradise and a must-stay when you are on the beautiful island of Zanzibar
