Top Matemwe Hotel Reviews

Zanzibar Queen Hotel

8/10 Good

"Great hotel, right on the beach (once you avoid the sellers), with great customer service especially from some of the bar staff. Also a couple of themed evenings at the hotel but I missed the Swahili night which looked lots of fun. No complaints from our group."

Sunshine Bay Zanzibar - Adult Only

8/10 Good

"Lovely room and the view was phenomenal. Check in says till 11pm but make sure you let them know in advance (we had) but it was clear they were due to go home when we arrived after 10. Food at restaurant was great, and staff very helpful. We dived with the sister hotel and had a great experience. We contacted them ourselves as hotel suggested getting shuttle bus to book but they were responsive via WhatsApp and this was easier."

The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Marafiki Beach Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location with a great staff and clean rooms that were serviced every day."

Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"All was well during our stay."

Sunshine Marine Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The eco-friendly resort is a little gem. The cuisine is varied and excellent—even by Italian standards—with an outstanding breakfast offering both sweet and savory options. The air-conditioned bungalows, equipped with mosquito nets, were serviced multiple times a day, including the spraying of mosquito repellent.Efficient and very friendly staff.Top-notch security. A quiet, secluded location. The resort is connected to two other properties under the same ownership, featuring long beaches to explore and two additional restaurants.Highly recommended"

Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"All inclusive hotel with great buffet. Beautiful and large beach."

Matemwe Attitude

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was incredible! Everything from the beautiful views from the pool to the amazing rooms each with their own pool!"

My Blue Hotel

8/10 Good

"Property grounds were nice. Rooms are a bit dated. The TV and telephone in our room did not work. Manager at reception was very accommodating and made our stay much better. The massages were excellent. Highly recommend them.! Wifi is awful! Love the balconies! The other downside is the beach, the beach is beautiful but you have to pay 25$ for 2 chairs and umbrella every day if you want to be on the beach. Otherwise they do have beach chairs on man made beach near infinity pool. Just depends on your preference! Food is ok. Nothing to rave about but something for everyone!"
