Hotels in Michamvi

We absolutely loved our stay in Qambani. Our Villa was splendid, the overall space just amazing: a dream. A big thank to Meaza for her kindness and for having taking great care of us. We will definitely come back and recommend to everyone wishing to visit Zanzibar.

Employees are super nice. Massage therapist was perfect. The food options was limited. For 2 people same starter and same desert is offered. Was the only hotel in Tanzania, didn’t offer any wine & prosecco for honeymooners. 😃 Calm, quiet ambiance perfect for relaxation.

Spending the last days of our honeymoon here. Incredible place with excellent rooms and facilities. The staff is super nice, helpful and professional. After being in several other accomodations before Qambani, this is by far the best we have stayed in in Tanzania. I honestly cannot see what they could improve

I stayed in this piece of paradise a few times with my family and every time we loved it more and more. This time we had the chance to experience the new part of the property, two amazing new villas with private pools. By far the most elegant property in Zanzibar.

Absolutely loved our stay in Qambani. Its a very exclusive experience and the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was luxurious. They offered extra vegetarian meal options which I could customize. Service, property and pool is exceptional! Highly recommend for an intimate experience to unwind. We stayed here for our honeymoon and had a ball!

Thankyou to Maite and the staff at Qambani for making our stay exceptional! My girlfriends and I stayed there for a couple days towards the end of our Tanzanian trip and we couldn’t have been more happier. The property itself is stunning, combined with the attention to detail and care by the staff which makes it such a delight! The food was delicious and the ambiance was perfect for relaxation. Hope...

Made my stay in Zanzibar more special

Had the best time , would highly recommend!

Absolutely stunning!!! The staff, the food, the villas. Absolutely nothing bad to say about this place. Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing!!! Staff, food, villas. Absolutely nothing bad to say about this place. Highly recommended.

A small hotel right on a picture-perfect beach. Wonderful views, perfect rooms and the best service. A wonderful team who make every effort to look after their guests

We really loved our visit to Michamvi Sunset Bay Resort. Shirley was a fantastic host. The venue is beautiful. If you would like to disconnect for a while its a great place in Zanzibar. The rooms have no Television and so it was easy to just relax. The staff were amazing. The chef was just great. Every meal was delicious and he adjusted the meals each day to suite us especially considering we are...

Paradise on earth. It's difficult to describe otherwise. My wife and I have been in Michamvi 3 times for 7 to 10 days each time. This could be my favorite place in the world. Location is just amazing. Service is fantastic. Food is great. Last time we visited the whole hotel had been totaly refurbished. So if it was great, now it's outstanding! We'll probably give it another go soon!

Quiet resort located right on the beach. The service is excellent, with extremely friendly staff. The food was superb and dinner was served at a different location each night, including on the beach with a bonfire. The breakfast area overlooks the ocean, and though options are somewhat limited, the food is still great. The beach is clean and the area is away from much activity, so ideal for anyone...

Resort review We enjoyed our time here. It’s calm, a nice view, nice people, and a powder like beach. We always got a sun-bed to relax in. In between dips in the ocean, we spent most our time reading. Be aware that the resort is currently not close to much else other than the beach. You’ll need to get a cab to go to another part of town or to another beach. While we were here (summer 2023) there was...

Great beach sunsets food & bar. Well managed :)

Upendo Beach is an exceptional place has an amazing beach view and the decor of the place is great too. The cocktails are amazing. They have a set of cocktails or you can make your own cocktail which I would highly recommend. A list of different liquor, spices and fruit for your own personalised cocktail. The food also very good! I've had several dishes and haven't been disappointed with any of them...

Overall the food was very tasty (ordered some seafood skewer, despite being served rather cold) but none of the veggie smoothies were available and just one of the dessert could be ordered. Also no paper menu, only QR code to scan, which is sad for such a fancy restaurant. Setting was beautiful. Waiter didn't know much about the dishes but did his best and was very friendly. Having this in mind I would...

Beautiful place with yummy food. I recommend this place over the rock. If you want to go the rock grab a drink there and then hop on over to Upendo for food. You will not be disappointed and you will have a great view of the rock. The service, atmosphere and food were all top notch! We will be coming back.

Amazing spot for resting, chilling, walking by the beach, and watching the sunrise. We stayed in the villa with rooftop pool and it is the best option ever to enjoy and relax. Staff was extremely nice and welcoming, specially reception and housekeeping, we felt like home. Great stay!

Very nice hotel/restaurant! I booked 4 nights in the villa with private pool and it was one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen. The hotel is small and so cosy. The interior of the restaurant and rooms are very stylish. The food is really good (one of the best restaurants in Zanzibar), the staff is so friendly, clean rooms,…. Would definitely recommend this place!!!

Amazing food, exceptional service and the friendliest team made our stay very memorable! However, this hotel is far from 'modern luxury'. We came here after a few nights at the Park Hyatt, for double the price.. what a downgrade. The website and reviews got our expectations high, we paid an exorbitant price for 3 nights and sadly I can't say it was worth it. The premise was minimal, ordinary and basic...

A Touch of Perfection at Boutique Hotel Matlai Hospitality: Experiencing the hospitality at Boutique Hotel Matlai is like embarking on a journey of warmth and attentiveness. The level of customer service from every staff member sets a new standard for what exceptional hospitality should be. The hotel's adept butlers seemed to know our schedules better than we did, going above and beyond to create...

Amazing. Comfortable. Relaxed. I have been in many family run boutique hotels. But seldomly have I seen such relaxed luxury and personalized service. Since matlai only has six rooms you hardly feel the other guests. The butler service makes your stay a personalized experience. You decide where and when you eat. Very good value for your money. I will come back

The perfect place for a relaxing getaway. Matlai was the grand finale for our honeymoon and we had a wonderful time. We loved that there are only a few rooms and lots of options for lounging. Many times we were the only people by the pool and it felt like we had our own private resort. It is right on the beach so you can easily go for a walk or swim. They have snorkeling gear and water shoes that you...

we are still so positively surprised and totally amazed by this beautiful boutique hotel! the friendliness of the people, the beauty, the lush and rich tropical green, the beautiful sound of the swahili language, the smells and scents. excellent, but really excellent service compared with so many we stayed all over the world. remember this is and you are in zanzibar! tim and his wonderful team will...

We traveled with three children and three adults and so we booked a whole villa - what a magical experience. Matlai didn't overlook any detail, from the nightly turn down service that they timed to our baby's bedtime, to the local bath salts, the excellent food, the private pool and essentially a private beach experience. The hotel is set up for great privacy even when fully booked. We also had another...

Absolut Great & Perfekt stay! Stunning Place to be. The Team is extremely polite, sympathetic as well as adorable! Thanks a lot for the perfect time, all the best & take care of yourselves! Best regards & i will surely come back :)

Everything was perfect most especially they were very generous

Beautifull place, friendly staff, nice facilities, when you stay here you can use the kayaks and snorkeling equipment. (Nice snorkeling at the Reef in front of the hotel) Good food in the restaurant. Quiet location surrounded by Nature. The bedst reccomendations.

Beautiful view from high on a cliff. Delicious food. Peaceful location. Big pool.

Great resort with amazing swiming pool, food was great, all was clean and safe... really best

Very nice place and it is very calm, the staff are so friendly, i had a tuna steak with chips , was fantastic.

We had a great week! Very warm welcome, Hotel on the edge of the Indian Ocean, very quiet, very large bay, great walks to do,, Large room, very clean, comfortable! Very friendly and caring staff, being all inclusive, we enjoyed the dishes, very good fresh fish! Hearty and varied breakfast ! The manager very present on site I recommend !

We spent a wonderful week there. The staff was nicer than we could've ever expected. Dismas makes amazing cocktails & the chef was nice enough to deviate from the menu to let me try local food. All was fresh and tasted great. Ice cubes were also not an issue (I am aware that many are afraid of tap water). The restaurant overlooks the beach & the bay, and the sunsets are gorgeous. A 15 minute walk to...

Is a nice place all staff is good especially at reception Hamfray is good guy

Tolle und ruhige Lage mit fantastischem Essen und Schnorcheln

Beautiful property Friendly and helpful staff Delicious food especially the Zanzibari fish curry! Lovely room with a spectacular view Flexible check in and check out

An absolutely phenomenal week spent at Zawadi for the second leg of our honeymoon! We spent a long time researching the very best hotels in Zanzibar and could not be more thrilled that we came across Zawadi.. it offered us everything we were looking for on our honeymoon and more. The hotel itself is breathtakingly beautiful, spectacularly designed around nature / the ocean and landscaped to perfection...

Could not recommend Zawadi more highly! An absolutely stunning resort with the friendliest staff. We wanted for absolutely nothing and felt like royalty the whole time. Beautiful facilities, lovely relaxed atmosphere and incredible food - perfection!!

No better place to spend a honeymoon, stunning villas, meticulously designed all with the most beautiful views of the ocean. The whole team are a credit to the top echelons of hospitality and the food is equally varied and wonderful. Highly Recommend if you are looking for an escape!

I stayed at the Zawadi Hotel in Zanzibar for my 40th birthday in July and it was the most incredible experience! The hotel property is intimate and luxurious - every corner you turn there is something more beautiful to view. Each room is a villa with a dip pool and hammock on a patio overlooking the Indian ocean. It’s really paradise. I also love that they have a working farm complete with a garden...

The white sand. The delicious fish and the vibes were trully worth the trip

This beach looks like Maldives, it was the best we saw in all Zanzibar

Good

We were staying nearby and had drinks and food from the restaurant while using loungers. A very nice location, comfortable place on a gorgeous beach. The staff was friendly and helpful, while still being unobtrusive. The accommodations looks good, but as mentioned, we weren't staying here so couldn't say. Pity it started to rain and we had to cut our time short--gorgeous sunset beach location and...

I can not rate this place high enough !!. Amazing location , beautiful beach , beautiful food , rooms are perfect , the pool/chill area is amazing too and every member of staff are beautiful people with amazing service we even had a day trip sorted for us by mohammed who made it feel so easy and stress free !! Will 100% come back next time i am visiting zanzibar island

Went to lounge by the pool and have their prawn curry, which was excellent. Friendly staff and a great view of the ocean!

This place was like a dream. Very quiet, right on the beach. You can see the sunrise from your bed. The rooms were clean and the staff is friendly. The food is also very good, they make the best curry. Tasty breakfast and super delicious fresh juice ❤ best place if you would like a relaxed vacation.

The view is just breathtaking. I was in one of the beach-facing bungalows with the waves lapping no more than 20 metres from the end of the bed. To see the sunrise and the moonrise from your bed, as well as to see the traditional Dhow fisherman sail by every now and then was just magical. Sublime, even. Muhammed was always readily available to help organize and advise on tours and activities and to...

We had fantastic stay for one night with our family. Mnana have unbelievable amazing sea view, rooms is big and 5 star standard. Swimming pool was great as well. Staff friendly and helpful. Thank you Mnana!

A hotel as I like them, in a quiet bay far from the crowd and noise, a breathtaking sunset, a really quiet beach without anyone disturbing you every 5 minutes like most of the beaches of Zanzibar. A very rich local life, fishermen with their pirogues returning from their sea outings, smiling people, in short, rest, discovery and real human relations with the local population. A cuisine with Zanzibar...

The staff was really nice and helpful, always attentive to our needs, especially the hotel Manager and the Chef whom maid our stay so much more pleasant . The position of the location was excellent, right on the beach and near other restaurants and other leisure activities. They had excellent Wi-Fi, giving that we also had to work during our stay. The breakfast buffet was diversified and really tasteful...

My family fo 6 pax they stay 3 night kaebeach resort and spa was wonderful Good service nice food friendly staff Thank you front office manager manjale who take care and all guest on time

Nice hotel, small format, pretty garden and very nice landscaping. Correct and spacious room, lack of decoration, coat hook in the bathroom, a system for hanging bathing suits and towels. Good food. Staff very smiling, rather English-speaking.

I visited Zanzibar between Aug'2-9 and was hosted in 5 rooms in Kea Beach resort with my family on an all inclusive deal. The staff is truly amazing and will support with any thing that they can. The atmosphere is calm and the view of the bay is taken from postcard 👍🏼. The rooms weren't in the level that we anticipated. In my room, there were termites that led to sawdust on my wife & me heads for...

Love the customer service and the internet is perfect

Best

Very tasty cuisine, tastier than here in Zanzibar, I have not tried anything) and the prices are affordable, polite staff, I highly recommend !!! We tried all the menus in a week)))

I won't tell you about the numbers. But the cuisine is very tasty with very low prices. We, as regular customers, even got a discount a couple of times.

Well priced but bed bugs 😒

the owner is the best

Great value for money! The rooms are comfortable and the place is nice. Only downside is the beach (not so nice) and not right next to the hotel as it might look like in pictures ( 5 minutes walk)

Paradise like, very friendly staff and owner, small hut with a fan, all you need. Even Bushbabies visited us every now and then.We enjoyed our 2 weeks a lot!

I like this place because it was only $20 a night and close to the beach. While it was not on the beach itself, you could pay for a $10 guest voucher at a nearby hotel to hang out at the beach for the day. The rooms here are very basic and clean, but the mosquito net did not fully cover around the bed. Fortunately, the mosquitoes here are not malaria mosquitoes and the fan kept them off of me at night

Barefoot Zanzibar is truly a beautiful, quiet spot very close to a beautiful beach. They have a little playground for children as well as helpful and a very friendly team working there. We booked a few nights but sadly just ended staying one night as our travel plans changed. We got fresh coconut water at arrival. For breakfast you can get fresh fruit, pancakes, omelettes, tea, coffee and bread with...

It's heaven on earth. The owners of the place make you feel like part of their family. They are very helpful in finding some cool activities and enjoying the island. Our room was specious and had everything we needed - including a huuuuge bed. The breakfast is amazing with lots of fresh fruit. We used the garden a lot for chilling under palm trees. We loved our stay and would like to come back soon

Wonderful place, truly paradise, very beautiful villa. Nice staff and owners. Found it at Airbnb

Paradise on earth! What an amazing place , Zandre makes you feel at home the moment you arrive. The food is exceptional and Richard and his staff are unbelievable in for filling your every need . Once again thank you Zandre for an unforgettable experience in Zanzibar.

If heaven exists it is here

Awesome Place..

Michamvi Beach house is something truly special! You get treated like family and we just did not want to leave, so much so that we extended our stay there for an additional 4 days 😉 the most incredible view to wake up to as the sun rises, and just all-in-all the most perfect place to relax, unwind, eat, drink.... and fish! Would give the owners Zandre and Magarita a 10 star rating if possible

We found Paradise! Hekaya is the most charming little boutique Hotel, right on Pingwe beach, one of the most beautifull beaches where we have ever been! Rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated and clean, with a fantastic balcony overlooking the ocean! The common areas are also very clean and we miss the cocktail of the day, prepared with all attention and care to surprise us! But what has really...

Outstanding and unique Hotel. Location is perfect with direct sea access. On the seashore you can find anything man would search for. Staff are extremely friendly, always smiling and happy to help (especially Jakoubo) and Breakfast couldn‘t be better ! The manager welcomed us in the middle of the night, always available for assistance. Highly recommended!

Hekaya is the place to be! We had an amazing stat there, the hotel is ao cute, the staff super nice, the views amazing, the food super good! We spent 4 days there and we would repite 100%. I also recommend you to take the tours with them as they offer many different tours at good price. You also have the Rock restaurant very close and it has amazing views. Hope to come back soon!

Hekaya is sheer paradise. Everything there is amazing: from the garden to the surroundings, including the pool, the bar and the beach, so beautiful and unique. The staff is lovely, really warm and super nice, always willing to help you at any time. All of them are very good professionals and people. They make you feel part of a family :) Rooms are big, comfy and well decorated. On top of that, the...

Our stay at Hekaya was amazing! One of the best hotel in Zanzibar right on the Pingwe beach and 3min walking to the famous restaurant The Rock. We enjoyed our stay in this small familial hotel (only 5 rooms) where we were treated like family. The swimming pool facing the ocean is absolutely ideal for having a nice and chill afternoon. The garden with flowers is colourful and well maintained. Rooms...

Lovely peaceful and serenity

Good

We had a lot of troubles on our own , but luckily there was the staff of Laguna Palace, especially Boris and his team to help us out on anything we needed. The place is clean , cozy and family-friendly with a great location , not far from the beach and still not in an overly busy street. The rooms were cleaned daily, the restaurant offers nice variety of tasty food and Chefu (the cook) was always...

Very quiet and private place i love it.

Nice place to relax on holiday.
