Hotel in Kilindoni
Located in Kilindoni, 4.4 miles from Rufiji Mafia Kilwa Marine Reserve, Maisara Mafia Beach Lodge has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a private beach area and a terrace. Beautiful bungalows with a huge garden directly in front of the beach. All the bungalows have a big glass front where you can see the garden and at some locations the beach. Incredibly nice staff - try to help and accommodate wherever they can. Could change the room without problems as I needed AC to be able to sleep (March can be incredibly hot and humid). Even came back to the hotel after diving on the other side of the island. Everything seems a bit rustic as first but you will definitely fall in love with it. There is a really really nice gift shop with handicrafts on site - really nice woman from the village, definitely one to support. The locations to the beach is super close and to the left there are two more hotels you can go for dinner or a drink. People all know each other on Mafia and help you with everything! :) Breakfast is great!

Kilindoni
Kileleni has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and bar in Kilindoni. The rooms include a patio. At the resort, rooms contain a closetand a balcony with a garden view. This has to be the best place on Mafia island. Set apart from town, on a bluff with a commanding view of the sea, and the sunset, three very stylish - and huge - rooms, large infinity pool, great food, superb manager in Ali and his excellent assistant Salama. Mafia is great - a paradise Indian Ocean island just open enough to be accessible and for everything to be easy to arrange - but it feels like the big tourist rush is yet to arrive. And Kilekeni, a short hop from town, the airport or the busier east coast, is one of its most serene and supremely relaxing spots.

Travelers who stayed in Mafia near Mafia Airport (MFA) have said good things about Mafia Dream Hotel, Maisara Mafia Beach Lodge, and Juani beach bungalows.
The staff and surroundings were extremely friendly and open. Our room was perfect and simple for our stay on Mafia. The food served was very fresh and always on point. Another good thing is the location of the property, just at the beach, with beach lounges and activities in case you want to see some more than just being in the hotel. Since someone is always around you can be sure that all of your belongings are a 100% safe and you can even decide to leave your room open or leave your phones to charge somewhere out.
Kilindoni
I loved this place so much. In five weeks of travel in Tanzania this was the best guesthouse I stayed at. The staff really made it special, especially Omi, Benita and Mohamed. Everything was sparkling-clean, comfortable, the food was good, the manager Hassan was incredibly helpful and made it super easy to book activities all over Mafia (the diving, especially, is incredible!). The vibe is very friendly - you’ll get to know the other guests, and I loved the social-but-still-quiet atmosphere as a solo traveler.
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.

this is like a jungle treehouse hotel-- so cool! staff was soooo nice! great social atmosphere even though i was like one of the only guests. THREE different beach entrances, AND an on-demand bar with great sunset beach views? Stunning. Food was very yummy. love that they are really trying to promote sustainability and responsible tour operators on mafia island.
It is a new hotel, but the best one that we went to in tanzania. The staff is lovely and helped us out werever they could. Would definitly go back if we are at mafia island in the future.
This is a very special place, the grounds are gorgeous, the staff is lovely, the room is beautiful and the food is excellent...Bravo!
Great place with amazing staff. The food was great and we enjoyed the variety. Mafia is beautiful and it is worth a visit to the village.
The property is beautiful, food is delicious, and the staff was very kind. I highly recommend Butiama to anyone traveling abroad. Magida island was phenomenal because of their hospitality.
