Amazing stay at Butiama Marine camp. For those visiting Mafia, would 100% recommend. Its location right on the beach is unmatched, excellent breakfasts and dinners, and fantastic staff.
If you’re looking to dive, would recommend Mafia Island diving. Staff were much friendlier than those at Big Blu (dive shop at marine camp).

KItu KIblu is very close to KIlidoni and the airport (5 minutes walking, if with a backpack no need for a taxi).
Centre is 15 minutes either by the beach or bay the main road; not great choice of restaurants and better going by night, it's safe and people are very friendly. Don't forget to say hello (mambo) to all men (women seem not appropriate, probably due to muslim religion) and shake your arm to children at the front door, they will repay with a great smile!!
By the beach experience the fisherman village to south and back to town by the jungle, there are a lot of small villages with friendly people.
Otherwise tuktuk is a good mean to move along the island until Chole, to north (nice beaches) better take a taxi. Pay attention at the road to Ras kisimani, beach is wonderful but very tough to get there.
When in Utende I strongly recommend Pamela beach for a lunch or dinner; she's great and let you experience local food.
