It’s very quiet, very few non hotel restaurants, overpriced food everywhere, can’t swim in the sea unless you don’t mind knee deep water. There’s no town, or town centre outside the beach hotels, so a long stay would be challenging if you want more than just lounging by the hotel pool.AodhanIreland - 8.0Scored 8.0

Matemwe and its area is a quiet place where you can relax and enjoy the beach, the activities (snorkeling, swimming with dolphins) especially if you are a couple, because the village is not very full of enterteinments or night parties.

Crystal clear water - despite there being sea urchins - if you have rock/ aqua shoes - you can still swim and explore the waters and reefs. The beaches are a lot quieter and peaceful than the busier beaches up north. The tides are also fascinating to watch- you can walk out to the reefs and cycle along the beaches when they go out!

Marafiki gets a 10/10 from us on all fronts - breakfast, lunch, dinner, pool, cleanliness, hospitality, music, sustainability, beach, communication. My husband and I stayed 4 nights at Marafiki after our Safari and had the most fabulous time. The rooms were very clean and quiet, and beautifully set up. The food is exceptional - please try the tuna tartar and all the specials! We had a relaxing time at the spa - you must try the full body scrub and massages. We used the free kayaks during sunset and enjoyed the stunning view from the water. The water is shallow so even if you go far, you can get off the kayak and swim. Since the hotel is east facing - sunrise is exceptionally beautiful. The water is still and shallow, and you can see all the fisherman walk up to the reef to catch the fish. The hotel also arranged a cooking lesson in Matamwe village for us - we learned how to cook ‘muchuzi’ from scratch which was a very meaningful experience. Overall- no negatives. We had the best time and will be back!

The beach is beautiful, but it's not really a beach you can swim on - there's a big tidal range - when it comes in it's quite choppy with lots of seaweed, and when it's out its corally with lots of urchins. But it's interesting to watch the local people looking for octopus and shellfish every day. It's quite a quiet area - all the bars are part of hotels. A few nice local restaurants around. Quite a lot of beach touts, which we found off putting. Not loads of activities to do in the area - 1/2 day snorkelling/dolphin watching trips at Mnemba Island basically.AlexUnited Kingdom

- From $135 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 455 reviewsSince Matemwe is heavily influences by the tide, a pool at the hotel is crucial on the east side of Zanzibar. This hotel has a pool right by the beach. Staff is kind and rooms are comfy with good ac. Each evening the staff goes through the rooms spraying mosquito repellent which is a very nice touch. Restaurant prices are good for this area of Zanzibar. Close to Mnemba island and Dolphin snorkeling to make tours for scuba diving and snorkeling. Located on a very nice beach but beware the beach boys selling stuff there are very persistant.
MikaelSweden - From $134.82 per night8.8Scored 8.8ExcellentRated excellent· 356 reviewsExcellent choice in Zanzibar! Perfect location, good beach hotel with all the commodities and not too busy, super comfortable and clean, good taste decoration, good relation price/quality. In Zanzibar the access to the beach is not easy because the coast line is almost completely blocked by hotels and resorts, and Matemwe was in fact one of the best beaches we found in Zanzibar. Near to busier north end of Nungwi, easy access to Stone Town and good departure point for boat trips, for snorkeling ou scubadiving, in Mnemba.
RitaPortugal - From $91.80 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 206 reviewsThis is a beautiful boutique style hotel. The staff is very friendly. The beach setting and the rooms are beautiful but the best is the food. We had half board and there were always delicious choices on the menu board. It's not the cheapest place but the food is fresh, nicely spiced, altogether the best food we have had during our stay in Tanzania. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Its also a good choice if want to be close to the dive schools. They provide free pick up from the hotel.
UtaSwitzerland - 7.5Scored 7.5GoodRated good· 105 reviewsWe had a great time in this hotel, we came for two nights and stayed for five ! The hotel is well located in the middle of the Matemwe beach, many restaurants are not far, The personnel is lovely and accommodating The rooms overlooking the pool and the sea are just a great value for money choice, you can hear the waves as you fall asleep, it’s idyllic Good restaurant with fair prices, good breakfast (eggs, pancakes, fruits)JulsFrance
