We stayed nearby in July, and ended up coming to Maisha every single day to hangout. The juices, coffees, food and cocktails are delicious, the staff are super friendly and I think it has one of the best set ups for sunbathing/relaxing on Paje beach. Lots of great spots to sit and the view out onto the beach is basically paradise. Huge thanks to all the staff for turning up every day with a smile and keeping us well fed and watered - and for keeping my partner comfy with his injured leg.

As good as it gets!
As good as it gets! Such a fabulous hotel. Run by a group of dynamic young people who really have their local community at heart. Located right by kitesurfers paradise beach with a restaurant that leaves nothing to be desired. Very safe and pleasant for solo female travellers. The team are so lovely, I want to specifically mention Rose and Happy! Will come back soon!

Beautiful Stay at Maisha Matamu – A Slice of Paradise!
Our stay at Maisha Matamu in Paje was absolutely wonderful. The place is stunning – peaceful, beautifully designed, and with an incredible view that makes you feel like you’re in paradise.
The staff were warm, attentive, and truly made us feel at home. A special thanks to Melisa, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Her kindness and attention to detail really stood out.
We loved every moment here and would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

The rooms are very basic, no amenities provided and even no drinking water provided. The hotel suffers from electricty outages more than other places, so servoces like AC are just not available. Management not available, you are left on your own.

John at reception was AMAZING!! He was so friendly and attentive - he organized my rides and activities for me. I chose to stay in the rooms with AC and not the bungalow type rooms because it would have been to hot for me. The shower pressure isn't the greatest in my room. The hotel is directly on the beach and they have plenty of sun beds with umbrella shades. I wasn't a big fan of the food/drinks at the restaurant though but the staff was amazingly friendly. Would stay here again!

The hotel grounds, staff, and views are fantastic! The beach bungalows are rustic with no A/C, but it was worth it to experience the welcoming staff, beach access, and good food.

This is the worst hotel I have stayed in and I have been to Zanzibar 11 times! The only nice thing about this hotel is that it is right on the beach. The manager right down to the staff is as rude as they come and not concerned with the wellbeing of his staying and paying guests. What you get for what you pay for in terms of us having booked the luxury rooms is worlds apart! We will most definitely never be back! Our vacation was spoilt because of this.
