Haber Hotel is a fantastic place! Small family hotel located in Matemwe, it offers comfort and quiet atmosphere for a relaxing holiday. I would recommend it to all those who want to avoid the big crowded noisy touristic hotels on the coast but in the same time want to stay close to beautiful beaches (nearby you can find Muyuni beach and Matemwe beach). The owners, Kris and Kasha, are great and would do everything to make the stay of the guests unforgettable. The staff is very kind and the whole dynamic of this property is tailored to fit the needs and comfort of the guests. Breakfast is fabulous, served from 8am till noon, for those who like to sleep in late, and for lunch and dinner we could chose delicious options from a rich menu or even off menu. Pets are welcome (the hotel is actually named after Haber, the owners' cute Cocker Spaniel). At any time of our stay we felt welcome, safe, well taken care of and even spoiled.

Very cosy bungalows set in a beautiful garden! A short walk to an almost empty beach with soft, white sand and calm warm ocean. Paco & Maria are simply the best hosts you can ask for. Sale & Fum, so warm and attentive. We couldn’t be happier with our choice. Highly recommended if you want to chill.

    Matemwe is ideal for relaxing and spending quality time with friends and family. Matemwe is near Mnemba island 🏝️ for swimming with dolphins 🐬 . We rode bicycles 🚲 around the village and the place felt very safe. There are few alternative places for lunch or dinner. Not too far from stone town.

    The snorkeling was a true adventure, with well-protected marine life and crystal-clear water. Spotting the dolphins was an unexpected bonus! Visiting the sea turtle rehabilitation center and feeding them was a special experience.

    Matemwe beach was huge and totally uncrowded - some days we were lucky to see 10 - 20 people pass by! Loved the Massai beach hawkers - friendly and laid back happy to have their pictures taken - no hassle or relentless chasing - once told 'no' they respected our space. Recommend a day trip to Nungwi for a completely different vibe and fantastic sunset. Matemwe is somewhat isolated and if you want to get around you need to secure the number of a local taxi driver - always bargain hard beforehand. Most hotels organise trips/tours but at a premium.

    It was a quieter beach which was nice which also meant not too many people hassling you to buy things. Those that did were respectful. Beach is nice but the sea depth is very shallow most of the day so swimming wasn't the easiest and there was a lot of seaweed when we were there.

    It’s very quiet, very few non hotel restaurants, overpriced food everywhere, can’t swim in the sea unless you don’t mind knee deep water. There’s no town, or town centre outside the beach hotels, so a long stay would be challenging if you want more than just lounging by the hotel pool.

    Matemwe and its area is a quiet place where you can relax and enjoy the beach, the activities (snorkeling, swimming with dolphins) especially if you are a couple, because the village is not very full of enterteinments or night parties.

    We had a very pleasant and relaxing stay at Mambo Paradise. The location is amazing, as it’s right off the beach and you can go dolphin and snorkeling easily from there ❤️ The room was clean and the staff very kind and helpful. Kasia is an amazing host and everyone did their best to help us with our requests and make us feel very welcome. The food was amazingly tasty and we highly recommend to try sea food as it’s freshly coming directly from the fish market, next to the hotel. .

    Great location, directly at the most beautiful beach of Zanzibar. Very large infinity pool and plenty of other pools to swim and play in. A lot staff and all very friendly. A lot of activities to choose from. Yoga with Sachin is really incredible, he is one of the best yoga teachers I have ever met. He will offer 2-3 group classes as well as 1:1 training on demand. Yoga and was my main activity during my stay :-) The live cooking event at the Asian restaurant was amazing too.

    What a gorgeous villa. An absolute paradise, right on the Indian Ocean. The decor is stunning with a wonderful combination of polished concrete and wood. Air conditioning in each bedroom and a welcome pool. Staff were very helpful with booking transfers. Plenty of restaurants along the beach, Zanzibar Queen being our favourite. A perfect spot for a getaway. Would love to go back.

    We have been to several hotels in Zanzibar and this was one of the best. Really felt like paradise and has its own private access to the beach and sunbeds by the pool and by the beach. Very close to Mnemba snorkeling, in comparison to if one was at Nugwi, we paid $20 each for a trip to the corals for snorkeling.
