Pet-friendly hotels and homes in Utende

Hassan is a great host, kind and helpful; the room il small and cozy and the garden is really nice and comfortable. It is a very beautiful place to spend relaxing days. The restaurant is amazing! Best food on the island.

We just finished our 3 day stay in Mafia and at Mafia Island Bungalows : it was a lovely stay, all-round : beautiful space for the house, comfortable terrace, perfect bedroom (Upendo - very nicely decorated with local flair, loved it), great bathroom… everything fine! The place is overall very quiet as it sits a little away from the road at the entrance of the Marine Park. We did not meet the owners, who where on a trip off the island : however, they took the time to check-in with us every single day, and it was much appreciated. We also would like to adress a great shout out to the staff : Hassan was very available, without being « too present » / just the right balance; and there is an amazing Chef on premises: we loved the breakfasts and even more the diners! The homemade bread and Chapatis, the soups, the mains and the deserts… everything was delicious ! Well done, we whole-heartedly recommend staying with you when visiting Mafia and hope to come again one day ☺️

Very friendly and helpful and went beyond the usual hospitality

The staff were exceptional, they couldn’t have looked after me better! Especially Masoud ❤️

- Mussa, Juani Beach manager, will provide you diferent choices to do as many activities as the island can offer you. All his contacts will be professional and caring with you. - Location could not be better, just by the beach. - Food is not only better than any other around the island but also pricey - Rooms are local-styled made of palms leaves in some cases

My husband and I had a pleasant stay. The room and bathroom look exactly like in the pictures - very spacious and clean. Bunda is very kind and friendly. He prepared a very fresh and abundant breakfast for us every morning at the time we agreed upon. One day he accompanied us to the beach. The beach, airport, and city center are very close, easily and safely accessible on foot, as well as by tuk-tuk or boda-boda. Ali - the owner is also very nice and honest. He responded to all our requests very promptly. He advised us not to book the whale sharks tour until someone assures us that they have been seen the previous day. All tours on the island can be booked at very good prices directly from the owner. Ali, Bunda thank you very much for everything! We wish you all the best! Asante Sana! Kindly, Ioana & Andrei
