With Matemwe Beach reachable in a few steps, Utupoa provides accommodation, a restaurant, free bikes, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden. Both WiFi and private parking are available at the lodge free of charge.

A wonderful cozy and friendly place to stay. The shared meals were such a nice addition after traveling and eating solo. The staff are so attentive and friendly. It’s clean and has everything you need, including amazing meals by the chef. It’s also literally right on the beach, the water comes up to the doorstep making swimming very convenient. I highly recommend!

Located 70 metres from Pwani Mchangani Beach, Mambo Cabana offers a garden, a terrace and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving African, American and Mediterranean cuisine.

This boutique hotel is situated at a great area and an ideal location allowing easy travel to kendwa/nungwi, Mnemba island and stone town. I felt like I was in Bali being surrounded by so many lush palm trees. I definitely rate it as value for money. The hotel was within less than 5 minutes walking distance to a beautiful beach where I enjoyed a kite surfing lesson. The design of my room was modern and spacious as advertised on the photos. I loved the music on the upper deck during breakfast and dinner that created that positive african energy and vibe. The food was flavourful and tasty. Thank you so much to the kind and friendly staff for making my stay comfortable and relaxed.

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Hebe Bungalows Lodge is a unique lodging on the northeast shore of Zanzibar. The lodge is enclosed within a high wall and security gate. The road to the lodge is unpaved and rough. It winds through the local village where poverty is evident. The location was good for my snorkeling tour near Mnemba Island. I liked my room (#7) and the view. The staff were professional and friendly. The restaurant was enjoyable and the food was good.

    The beautiful and helpful staff are the highlight of Sunshine Marine Lodge. The food was excellent, with a wide array of options to choose from. The spa is a fantastic amenity to the lodge, with lots of affordable treatments carried out by the team of great therapists. Yoga with Ana (who is a fantastic teacher) is also a really great addition to the property and I recommend to future guests taking some classes to unwind from your day and carry you into a chilled evening.

    Overall we can only recommend Sunshine Marine Lodge. Food was really tasty, especially if you know that their sell it (breakfast and dinner) as a half-board. Staff was friendly and always helpful. They work toghether with Floral-tours agency and organize you all transfers and excursion all over the island. There is also Diving point base on the property. So this is really very good place if you want good snorkeling or diving excursion and make a peacful retreat in a small not crowded hotel...

    Hebe Lodge is a really lovely place. The food is exceptional, as we wanted to explore the area we didn't eat there every night, however I must say we regretted because everytime we thought that HEBE was just so much better! The rooms are lovely, the stuff is always available. Nice breakfast and l loved the tropical garden.

    We only have positive experiences from Hebe Bugalow Lodge. We are a family of 4 who spent 6 nights in Zanzibar. The hotel has the best staff. They are kind, honest, helpful, and always friendly. Additionally, they serve delicious and fresh breakfast. The area is especially great because you get to experience the local community and it is not overrun with tourists. The owner, Peter, is ready to greet guests upon arrival.
