非常驚喜的一家店 小而精緻 我個人和朋友都非常喜歡 價格也很美麗 最主要是樓下就是海灘 沙非常細軟 老闆是意大利夫婦 很和善 唯一對很多遊客來説麻煩的是 必須包車去 在一個比較偏遠的海灘 沒什麼遊客

Piccolo hotel boutique tranquillo sul tratto più bello della spiaggia di Matamwe. L’hotel ha poche stanze, curato nei minimi dettagli, ripropone con pezzi sapientemente scelti la cultura della Tanzania. È gestito da una coppia di Italiani, Massimiliano e Miria che con grande amore per il loro lavoro e per la cultura del paese che li ospita ti aiutano a vivere al meglio questa esperienza, sopratutto se è la tua prima volta a Zanzibar. I loro consigli si sono rivelati preziosissimi per non fare il solito viaggio “turistico” ma per assaporare e approfondire l’unicità di questo paese. L’hotel è molto curato, le stanze sono ampie dotate di ogni comfort, zanzariere sui letti (pochissime zanzare), bagno curato stile Africa con doccia ampia, morbidi asciugamani e accappatoi. Prodotti da bagno con olii essenziali di una linea locale che definirei superlativi. Ogni sera la camera viene preparata per la notte, il letto viene aperto, vengono abbassate le zanzariere e vengono lasciate delle bottiglie di acqua. La corrente elettrica è saltata solo una volta per qualche minuto durante la notte nell’arco di 12 giorni, Wi-Fi potente arriva fino alla spiaggia ( grande comodità). Il giardino dell’hotel è provvisto di due bar, sdraio tavolini con poltrone e divani con morbidi cuscini e tettoie in telo…piccola piscina curatissima circondata da palme che la sera vengono illuminate da centinaia di piccole luci… fiabesco! Ottimi gli happy hour! Spiaggia ampissima! Lettini ed ombrelloni rialzati e riparati dai pochi beach boys e masai che passano ma che non possono avvicinarsi alla struttura. Ombrelloni ampi, lettini comodi e tenuti benissimo. Presente una postazione per massaggi curata nei dettagli e con una brava massaggiatrice. All’interno ristorante con cucina italiana ed internazionale di ottimo livello, pesce fresco e prezzi in linea con quelli delle altre zone dell’isola. Tavolo da biliardo e numerosi giochi da tavolo a disposizione degli ospiti. Le escursioni le abbiamo fatte con loro, ci siamo trovati benissimo sia in termini di organizzazione sia perché ad una siamo stati accompagnati direttamente da Massimiliano che ci ha portato all’interno dell’isola tra villaggi di fango e spaccati non turistici di Zanzibar dove abbiamo assaporato la vera Africa! Se cercate un hotel curato, tranquillo, sicuro.. se cercate due amici che vi accolgono vi aiutano, vi consigliano e vi fanno sentire a casa di amici… questo è il posto per voi!Consiglio le stanze vista oceano, tutte con terrazzo, lettino e dondolo sul mare… che dire.. struttura perfetta!

Not only is this hotel situated in an stunning spot looking out onto the white beach between matemwe and paje, this hotel also boasts of a beautifully designed interior and delicious food, a curio shop and amazing staff. While we were they kindly helped us celebrate our parent’s 22nd wedding anniversary and baked a wonderful cake for us . But one of the best things about this place is that as much as it seems like paradise it is not a completely cut off from the activities and life on the island, the staff are more than happy to organise trips and give advice about excursions to the local villages, and out to sea . It’s a beautiful hotel in harmony with the beauty and hustle and bustle of the island. It is honestly very hard to leave.

Super cozy and charming hotel, nice breakfast, cool meals, heavenly view, lovely staff except the masseuse... who 'forces' you to take several massages and refuses to apply the promotion!! Pretending not to understand anything. Be careful, it spoils the stay.

Struttura con poche camere affacciate sul mare, arredate con gusto così come tutta la struttura. Abbiamo usufruito del loro transfert dall'aeroporto e subito si è capito che l'attenzione verso il cliente sarebbe stata alta, ci sono state fornite salviette umide e acqua. Massimiliano e Miria sono sempre disponibili per qualsiasi cosa e anche tutto lo staff. Fuori dai circuiti turistici e con pochi beach boys, praticamente il paradiso. Abbiamo sempre mangiato in struttura e tutto ottimo, colazione abbondante. Struttura pulitissima e camere corredate di tutto. Un grazie a tutti loro e un arrivederci

I am a solo female traveller. Zanzibar House is an excellent property in so many ways. The staff are friendly and helpful. The grounds are a delight to be in, with lots of comfortable places to sit and read or contemplate the beauty of the area.
I did not use the pool and I am sure it would be lovely.
At night time I had an evening meal which was tasty and they accommodated my dietary requirements very well. I am gluten intolerant. I recommend this hotel if you like quiet and beauty filled places
