Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Beautiful new and well appointed hotel. Crisp laundry and spotless towels. Attentive and helpful staff. Beautiful infinity pool overlooking the sea. A place for peace and quiet - esp beach combing and bird watching along the mangrove fringed shore.
Wonderful location. And just 10 mins tuk-tuk/cab ride from the airport. The host was great at communication, so it helped informing him about the arrival (he sent a tuk-tuk) and the food in advance. These chaps took care of the whale-shark excursion the next morning, with a boat leaving from right there. Chill place. Would recommend. Good food as well.
Ally is a very good host that tries his best to help and make you feel at home. I had the room with own bathroom and it was big and comfy. Staff makes really nice food. A bit of a walk to the nice beaches but cheap to go there by motorbike. Friendly people in the lokal area. Definitely one of the cheapest accommodation around. Buy a local SIM to have access to the Internet. Cold showers. Tours can be booked from here.
Bunda and Ally are great hosts! They are always there to help you if you have any question!
The kitchen can be used to prepare your own meals, as well they have a menu in case you would like to order dinner.
Beautifully maintained, green and peaceful, very very kind and helpful staff, care for nature and animals (Pablo the dog was cute and friendly as well), well decorated, easy to move around with tuktuk, local beach nearby... and we were almost the only ones staying, so it was pleasant and quiet
it’s private, spacious and fits well with the nature. The bed is comfortable, staff vas very nice and yummy food. There is a choice of fresh seafood for lunch and dinner and fresh fruits available. Th ask pretty much all what we eaten the whole time and was really delicious. There is also a bar and bed hammocks which was great for relaxing. Hassan the host Organise a whale shark tour for us which we really enjoyed as that was the main reason. for visiting Mafia.
Quiet friendly affordable place, room was clean and tidy, comfortable bed with mosquito net and fan, host was very helpful and able to organize activities on short notice. They cooked me dinner both nights and it was very tasty and filling, breakfast was the standard Mafia fruit, eggs and pancakes. walking distance from the airport if you’re not carrying too much luggage.
