Zanzibar House Boutique Hotel, hotel in Matemwe

Located on a private sand beach overlooking the Indian Ocean, Zanzibar House in Matemwe features a swimming pool and bar. Scuba diving and snorkeling opportunities are also available.

I have visited Zanzibar before and stayed at a few hotels (large and small) and this is by far my favorite hotel, my kids and I did not want to leave. It was a hidden gem! The staff were very friendly, the owners were always available and very sweet and kind, the food was the best in Zanzibar. It’s a very quiet and lovely getaway. The beach felt like a private beach away from the overbearing Masai and tourists. The hotel was very cozy, authentic and unique. The rooms were spacious, the balcony was stunning and watching the sunrise every day was beautiful, AC was working perfectly, rooms was always clean and they clean twice a day. If you want to relax.. this is the place to stay! The owners and staff quickly became our family. Thank you for the most beautiful stay, we will be back again! Thank you Milo, Max, Lena, Frank, Michael, Hamed, and Rahma.

The House of Royals, hotel in Zanzibar City

The House of Royals in Zanzibar City provides accommodations with an open-air bath, a garden, and a bar. This beachfront property offers access to free Wifi and free private parking.

The Villa is a jewel. it was saved and restored from a nature that was literally claiming and swallowing it back. The White Villa stands Out from its beautiful green garden but without being intrusive with nature. The garden and the Door Collection absolutely deserve a visit. the room was really well designed and furnished. you have really the feeling to be in a small bubble suspended out of time.

Villa Lala, hotel in Kiwengwa

Villa Lala provides beachfront accommodations in Kiwengwa. Providing free Wifi, the property also has a private beach area, an outdoor swimming pool, and a garden.

We staid at Villa Lala that belongs to the same owner therefore, we end up spending most of our time at Poa Poa (restaurant) and pool Villa Lala - the room number 1 is superb! Initially we got to number 2 (smaller in size and different setup). We got transferred to the room 1 (due to some issue with toilet) but what we discovered - room N1 was for sure Superior. It worth 💯 to pay little more but get this room! Wardrobe is soooo specious, layout is perfect 🤩 and I love its interior design more. You will have shared kitchen - to fix tea or coffee for yourself or sometime we kept some fruits in the fridge ☺️ Next door to Villa Lala you will have Poa Poa restaurant with the best food! Sooo good and good value for money. I was having grilled octopus with grilled veggies every single day 😁 soooo good! Great spot for pics as well 📸🤳 Staff is cool and caring! Good place to chill and relax Big thanks to John 🫶🏻 Highly recommended! 🌟💯

    We had great relaxing time in Kiwengwa. The facilities are very comfortable, great restaurant and really good food. The access to the private beach is trough the internal sand path, but it is just a few steps. The beach is perfect with comfortable sun beds, and there is a beach front restaurant also with great food and drinks. It is very safe. This location and this boutique resort is more quiet and cozy, which we appreciated mostly. I strongly recommend to stay there.

    I really enjoyed my stay at the hotel. The bed was extremely comfortable, and the overall conditions were excellent. The hosts, a lovely young couple, were very pleasant and attentive. There's a charming little dog living on the premises, which added to the homely atmosphere. Everything was clean, with impeccable housekeeping, and the security was top-notch. ---

    This is a beautifully located property right on the beach front. Angela and Mr Karrim are absolutely stellar host. They are very accommodating and welcoming. We arrived in the early hours of the morning with no check in issues. The daily entertainment was quiet nice.
