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.

Perfect place to stay in Matamwe for our 5 days. Breakfast was just what we needed before diving every morning. Good price for the area. Very nice staff and the cutest dog and cat!

It's a beautiful location right on the beach, with cozy seating overlooking the ocean. Mohammed and his team are just wonderful. I forgot a small camera in their restaurant when we left for stone town, and he and his wife really helped me out to get it back - I'm so grateful to them! He also arranged transport from the ferry with us, and was very forthcoming when we had to change some plans around last-minute. The food in the restaurant was amazing as well. Highly recommend this place!

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! 🌟💯

Andrea is a treasure, she helped us to organize our trips in the area and chased the local trip providers to give us good services. Also organized the local taxi for us and gave us useful tips.
The room was clean and spacious, air conditioning working, hot water in the shower worked. The room was cleaned nicely every day. The breakfast was big, exceptionally good. If you like milk in your coffee, just ask for it, nothing is a problem. We could also use the kitchen if needed for cutlery etc.

The property is really well maintained, maybe on the new side and the bed was very comfortable and the shower hot and wonderful. And, the staff were super friendly and helpful!

Super comfortable, locally owned, local hangout, great food, amazingly friendly and helpful staff. And so safe and comfortable, that a local cat chose to raise her young kittens there!
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.
I loved everything
Small boutique hotel right on the beautiful and quiet beach
Room was very clean and spacious
Hospitality of the owners and staff
Great food and services
The service, the place, the food and the people are the best if you are looking for a real Zanzibar experience!! Giorgia and Daniele were the most welcome and amazing host you could have met in this wonderful island! We definitely recommend it for couples and friends also for the perfect location, if you like quiet and peace. The beach is literally 5min walking and it's definitely the best side of Zanzibar!
We can't wait to come back again! We already miss this amazing place so much!
Great location on the beach.. Excellent restaurant with extensive choice. Staff very helpful and Mohomad was an excellent host.
Bedroom was basic but fine
Zanzibar Magic Boutique hotel was the perfect stop on our honeymoon to Zanzibar. The staff were so friendly, the food amazing and the location was right on the beachfront. Matemwe beach is quieter than Nungwi or kendwa but the sea was lovely to swim in.
Fantastic villa that hosted 2 families of 4 people. Beautiful beach right off the property, quiet off the beaten track, great house staff, fantastic breakfast, lovely pool and other meals, daily housekeeping and laundry. Massage next door. They helped arrange local tours.
Charming beachfront bungalows with big private bathrooms, great staff, excellent breakfast, and good restaurant. Direct access to a beautiful, quiet beach and comfortable shaded lounge chairs.
We really enjoyed our stay at sunny villa!! Shamir it’s a great host and provides any kind of services you’ll need. It’s a cozy place, only 6 rooms with a really nice swimming pool. Although it’s not directly on the sea, the beautiful beach it’s only 1 minute walk. The staff it’s super friendly, food it’s fresh and really good. Enjoy ypur stay!!!
Charming Boutique hotel lovingly designed down to the smallest detail. Wonderful rooms, large balcony, great breakfast and dinner. White powdery sand beach only one step away - quiet and clean at all times. Amazing owners. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Arranged for me everything. Service level: 10++/10. You come as a stranger and leave as a friend. Recommendation: 100%
