The staff was really friendly. The breakfast was very tasty and the bungalow was incredibly nice. It felt safe there, because all people coming in would pass the staff. It's directly next to the beach (although when it's flood you have to go about 15 minutes to the next part of the beach to lie down as the water here is too high then). Also a beautiful garden. We had a great stay!
Mnana Beach Bungalows has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and restaurant in Michamvi.

International breakfast was the norm wich was tasty and can make europeans feel at home but local breakfast could be arranged too if requested wich I loved so much and was SO filling. Dinner is priced reasonable, a little higher than surrounding places but portions are HUGE and quality and taste is 20/10. All dishes are very fresh and the chef is a sweet soul. The owners are very transparant and well organised. They have trustworthy connections to arrange all activities you can think of and are very happy to help any time. The place offers a sense of privacy wich I loved. I can imagine it also being a very good place to celebrate with a group of friends as they offer the facilities (swimmingpool, bar, line wall, high quality music installation, game are). I really felt looked after and will definitely visit them again. Cleanliness and hygiene is 20/10, the place always looks and feels polished. Rooms are well equiped, for hot nights, beautifully designed and mosquito protection can be bought from them (wich works well and is way cheaper compared to buying it at home if you travel from Europe). Excellent location and such sweet and caring staff. Couldnt have felt more safe here. Wifi is free and very high speed.

If you're looking to unwind, Oleza is the ideal destination. Situated in Michamvi on the serene Southeast coast of Zanzibar, it offers a tranquil atmosphere away from the hustle and bustle, perfect for relaxation.
Close to Pingwe and Paje, you'll find plenty to do while staying there. As for Oleza itself, having traveled extensively worldwide, I can confidently say that it boasts the most hospitable, accommodating, and delightful team I've encountered. Their proactive assistance exceeded my expectations, often extending help without even being prompted. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure guests have a memorable experience.
Mr. Humphrey, the charming manager, is ever eager to teacher a few Swahili phrases, while the Chef ensures your dining experience is delightful. Despite my wife's gluten intolerance, he made special efforts to prepare delicious gluten-free dishes.
At Oleza, their motto rings true: 'Arrive as a guest, depart as family.' And indeed, that's precisely how we experienced it.
Asante sana!

Sansi Kae is an amazing resort. We loved our time there. Right On the beach. Great Pools. Great Staff and overall a great stay. The massages were amazing. The night activities were a lot of fun and created a great vibe. The way the staff treat you is like royalty. We made friends with lots of the staff and had some good laughs and learnt a lot of the language from them. They always went our their way to make sure we had everything we wanted and more!
The external company that handled the booking of activities were great too. We swam with dolphins and went to feed sea turtles in a cave. AMAZING experience. We also did the tour of prison island and stone town which were also great experiences.
The resort is a bit of a drive from the airport but the taxis got us there no problem. On the East side of the island where its not as commercial so it wasnt too busy. We heard that the North side is madness. Especially when doing tours like the Dolphin swim. We had 4 boats around us vs what i heard some people say its mayhem with over 20 boats as an example.
For a chilled getaway to relax and spend time at the beach or pools was amazing. I would recommend Sansi Kae to all.

by walking distance you could reach Kae Funk, which is lovely place, with party, and amazing sunset view. Is right place for whom are interested for The Rock, by taxi it takes aprox. 25 min, the same to Paje beach. Michamwi is calm and full of nature. Unfortunately the ocean is full of seeweeds and is not pleasant to swim here.

It has some really nice beaches in the area and wonderful blue ocean as far as the eye can see. It's also quiet and very tranquil. We enjoyed a nice long walk on the beach with little to no interruptions from beach boys of sellers.
the property is secluded which is exactly what we were looking for.
When we did want to venture into town transfers were handled and it was always smooth and straightforward.
The food was spectacular! you can request to eat anywhere on the property to enjoy whatever view you’re feeling (pool, lobby, room etc). Each day a few options for lunch were shared, and a set menu for dinner. Food was fresh, generous portions and scrumptious. We got a nice mixture of Zanzibari cuisine and international options.
The staff were amazing! this is what we liked the most at Horizon Michamvi , very kind , cheerful, helpful , they made sure to provide whatever we needed with a smile on their faces always ! Rose Marie, Dismiss and Ru were very sweet with my children as well.
Lovely location to watch the not to be missed sunset in Michamvi and you can walk to Michamvi Mangrove Forest from the resort when it is low tide , and SUP when it is high tide which is an amazing experience !
Rooms and property clean .
We were supposed to stay only 2 days but we decided to stay the entire week to Ramona's place. It is a little paradise!! The room is perfect, large bed very confortable, super kitchen well equiped ... The garden is also very peaceful and the beach is at 5min by walk. Michamvi is the ideal place to rest and to share with locals. Sunset is amazing !! We feel at home thanks to Ramona's hospitality.
this small hotel was such a pleasant surprise! unfortunately we booked it only for one day… I wish we had chosen it to spend the one week we had in Zanzibar ! great value for money ! we slept with the sound of the waves and woke up seeing the sunrise from our bed ! unique experience and walking distance from The Rock restaurant and other nice hotels/ restaurants for dinner / lunches !
The property is gorgeous, extremely aesthetically pleasing. It is also in a great location. I wish we had spent the whole of our trip staying in Baladin. The atmosphere is great, I will definitely be back.
The Baladin beer is a must try. It’s so delicious. The food in the restaurant was also very yummy.
The hotel staff made sure we were looked after properly ask were very attentive.
Had an amazing time at the hotel! The staff made me and my lady feel very welcomed and assisted us in booking all the activities and restaurants. I planned a surprise birthday meal for my partner and they did an amazing job with making her dream come true, a beautiful candle lit dinner by the beautiful ocean of Zanzibar. Will definitely be going again!
Excellent place to relax. The hotel is located on an idyllic landscape in a small village next to the beach. The rooms are right at the beach, breakfast is served outdoors with an excellent view. There is a beach bar with good cocktails and food. The staff is very friendly. The rooms are spotless and the hotel is very well managed.
Really amazing staff!! Especially Fatma, the receptionist, was very kind and knowledgeable about the area. The facilities were very clean and in a great location next to the Rock restaurant. Could easily go on excursions as the fisherman were hanging around the beach. Also Kae funk is a short drive away! Highly recommend
We loved staying at Boutique Hotel Matlai. The grounds and rooms are just beautiful and such nice quality. Everything is maintained to a high standard. The staff is so kind and welcoming. It was the perfect choice to relax and regroup after a long safari on the mainland.
- quiet as it is not a big hotel with hundreds of guests
- super helpful staff
- right at the beach / beautiful and quiet spot
- drinking water is for free
- turndown service includes spraying of mosquito protection spray
- great sunsets
The location and view is spectacular. Amazing place, highly recommended. Friendly staff and good food and drinks.
I would come back any time. If you have the chance to go to Zanzibar, don’t miss Mnana.
Very nice and friendly staff, delicious breakfast. Close to one of the most beautiful beaches in Zanzibar. Great bathroom, you can take shower and admire the stars at the same time.
The staff and the hotel are outstanding. Lovely setup with privacy for every room with private pool and great views of the beach and the sky! Its like living in the arms of nature.
