📍 Utende, Mafia
★★★ 10 (5 reviews)

"Marco, Francesca and their team is very welcoming. The food was sublime! It is always nice to be somewhere peaceful, where you also find people involved in the community. Eco Shamba Kilole is ideal for lovers and birders. The flying foxes are just right by the lodge. Nice mangroves forest line just along the land. We had a great time there to decompress!"

Meremeta Lodge

Meremeta Lodge

📍 Utende Road, Mafia
★★★ 9.3 (11 reviews)

"We really enjoyed our stay here. Our room was comfortable and we were happy to have A/C. The only thing we didn't enjoy so much in the room was a bit of a smell coming from the drains in the washroom. There was a nice hammock and comfy couch on the porch. It would have been ideal to have some seating available in the room, as we had to sit on beds in the evening when we were trying to avoid mosquitos after dusk. There were plenty of comfortable couches available in the large open common area where the bar and dining areas were located. The food was excellent. Three course dinner was available for USD $15. They were kind enough to cater to my requests for more veg and no rice/pasta/potato side dishes. With early morning scuba trips, they were happy to pack a sizeable breakfast for me to take along, sending fruit, muffins, pancakes, and omelette depending on your preferences. It was great to enjoy it after a couple of dives to not be underwater with a full stomach. I appreciated the free transfer to the beach as early as 5:30AM, and though we generally walked the 20min back to the lodge each afternoon, they were also happy to go pick up other guests who I went diving with. We appreciated the friendly service, and would certainly stay again. The compound was beautiful with all the trees and flowers."

Kitu Kiblu ★★
"If you are looking for the paradise, I reccomend to stay some days at Kitu Kiblu on Mafia Island. The accomodations are simply amazing, falling asleep and waking up with the sound of the ocean and some monkeys jumping around is frankly priceless. Every single person at Kitu Kiblu is extremely kind and welcoming and we really felt at home. The food is amazing, they even had a lot of vegetarian food! The sharkwhale watching day was perfectly organized and amazing even though we were not lucky as we were the out of season! We definitely recommend to stay here!"

Eco Shamba Kilole Lodge ★★★
"I can easily say this is the best stay I have experienced. Our room was beautiful, clean and tidy. The bed was huge and super comfy. The food every night was so delicious, everything from the coconut chutney to the salad at lunch and the meat was absolutely perfect. Service was again, the best I have ever experienced, we had umbarellas dropped to our room when it was raining and when I was sunburnt Adie brought fresh aloe Vera! A very thoughtful and well put together team, who, when short staffed worked super hard to keep us happy. Thank you so much Francesca and Marco for having us, and teaching us so much about the island!! Hopefully see you next year! X"

Meremeta Lodge ★★★
"This place just kind of sticks with you. When you arrive, Mr. Meremeta is waiting for you at the airport. And you drive across the beautiful green island with him and turn into a property that looks like a decade of work growing out the flowers to surround each cottage. The lodge is on the edge of the marine park. A bicycle's ride (which he provides and has waiting for you every morning) to the beach. The cottages are smartly engineered. They have a great ceiling fan, good AC, nice showers, layers of thoughtful things like drying racks and shelves, etc. There is a large open restaurant with ample spots for tea and a read in between activities. And again, super interesting engineering. A constant breeze keeps the bugs well at bay. Breakfast is fresh fruit and scratch pastry (and eggs made to order). Dinner is a set menu that rotates every evening. Also, if you choose, Mr. Meremeta can arrange excursions. Most he has his own guide for (who is excellent). For the specialty ones, he will instantly message and help you make arrangements. Didn't expect such an easy experience."
