We were upgraded to a premium room which had a terrific view of the beach & ocean and a large balcony with lounge chairs. Our room was spacious with a comfortable large bed. The bathroom was a good size with 2 sinks. There were plenty of towels, both for the bath and the beach. We also greatly enjoyed the swimming pool. The food in the restaurant was excellent. The co-owner and manager kindly assisted us with booking a snorkel trip.

Villa Unaweza wasn't just a place to stay, it was an experience. It was a home away from home, filled with impeccable hospitality, thoughtful touches(surprised me with the best cake on my birthday), and unforgettable moments. If you're seeking a slice of paradise with a side of genuine human connection, look no further. Sylvia, Aga, Fau, Fridah, Felix and Denge made me feel truly welcomed and cared for.Also... if you're looking for some pampering, do not miss the massage and body scrub...it was the most blissfully indulgent hour of my entire trip!

ALL staff are absolutely delightful. Everyone made us truly welcome. Our room was spacious and clean. The Village and Reef Walk with James was really interesting and so worthwhile. The bar staff and chefs at the Beach Bar were great fun and the waitress and waiters in the restaurant were very friendly, nothing was too much trouble, for anyone. The location was perfect, quiet and relaxing. A few local restaurants around the beach, we tried as many as possible, some in the village itself. Try them, Google maps will give locations, they may look quiet but every one we tried, the people were super friendly and interested in where you come from etc, food takes a little while, but everything is cooked to order. There are a few beach boys about but they are generally friendly.

It is a very quite hotel, lots of space for all the guests, the deck is amazing. They have loungers which aren't on the beach which you end up being grateful for as sometimes the locals "beach boys" can get a bit much, but you experience them everywhere in Zanzibar. The tide does go out quite a bit on the East Coast, so not a lot of prime swimming time. We loved the staff and they were very attentive and friendly. We had a rented car so drove up to Nungwi for a vibe for a day, it was about a 30minute drive. About 5 minutes walk from the hotel there were two great "local-ish" restuarants run by local guys. The one was called Marlin local restaurant and the other one was called Yellow Coco Restaurant, the food was exceptional and worth going out of your comfort zone for. We did go at the end of June just before major tourist season hits, so it might be louder closer to tourist season, but we really feel like this place exceeded our requirements and expectations. One thing to note is the bar and restaurant at the hotel do charge dollar prices, so going to the local restaurant really helped us budget wise.

A beautiful resort with a great beach. Fantastic Staff - could not have wished for a better stay. Gelato Shop on site at the Mora is even a “grown up” kids’ dreams. The cocktail menu very imaginative. Loved that all veg,fruit and fish are locally sourced.

The hotel was excellent but the beach is like almost all of the Zanzibar´s beaches - white sand but full of weeds and practically impossible to swim. Fortunately you can go to Kendwa beach to enjoy the swimming in the sea (about 30 minutes).

Matemwe is a perfect destination for anyone who wants peace and quiet, but still has access to great activities. You can easily arrange dolphin watching and swimming tours – look for Captain Lucho, he helped us with everything and made the experience amazing. A beautiful and relaxing place to stay!

Matemwe was nice - the beach part.

Matemwe was nice - the beach part. Sad to see the poverty behind the gates of the hotel. The tides were a bit different from what we have expected as the water would leave the beach at 9am and return around 5pm. If you did not make it to swim early in the morning, you missed it. We took a reef walk which was beautiful, saw a lot of see creatures, and that was very amazing experience. Also took a boat tour to see the sunset - it was worth the trip. Did not like how the locals would just stop on the beach and start shouting at you to buy smth. Also the part of the hotel beach is not segregated in any way, which does not give you a privacy enough. The food was amazing though - the hotel goes much beyond - and all day brekfast concept was amazing.

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.
