This place is as beautiful as the pictures. The staff is very warm/ friendly and very welcoming. The hotel is very clean. The breakfast selection was good. The hotel is at the beach front so u wake up to sea views ( sea facing rooms) and could take morning / early evening walks🌅. You can book your activities through the hotel. Most importantly the hotel is family friendly as well. Sea food platter was delicious 🤩

Wow what an Incredible hotel. We had nothing short of a perfect stay. I can’t recommend this hotel enough- with absolutely nothing to fault as a guest. The hotel itself self is new and all the finishings and amenities show that, such a beautiful design with a beautiful vibe! The location is perfect for some quiet down time, only a few steps on your on white sand and blue waters, with other restaurants and hotels close by if you wish. Local tours are all central and assessable. The food at the hotel was the best we found from everywhere we ate. Not to mention the staff were all friendly and accommodating from the cleaners, wait staff and pool boys. And last but not least the hotel owners- the icing on the cake to an incredible stay! So friendly, helpful, accommodating and personal. You will not feel like another number at a large hotel here! You will feel like you’re in paradise with family.

We stayed at Alladin Hotel for 7 days and had most amazing time, we booked king size room with ocean view which was stunning way to wake up every morning. We loved everything about this place but first of all people, they were all so welcoming, nice and friendly that you really feel like you are a member of their family, the way they take care of things starting from the smallest inconvinent ones to help you organiza a whole 7 day activity trip. Everyone is so friendly, warm and truly makes you feel like you are valuable. Biggest thanks to Mr.Khamis who was there with a smile every day and making sure we have everything, not only just towards us but towards other guest, the way he creates bond and really participates in your wishes is truly a remark of a person who loves his job and is doing it spotlessly. It's very easy to organize trips and activities around Zanzibar and probably the fastest and easiest way is to do it over the hotel. The price was decent and worth everything we saw and experienced, some activities we even decided to repeat. Food in Alladin is amazing, we mostly ate seafood and fruits and everything was so fresh and delicious, breakfast has great options and for lunch or dinner you can have a great meal, coctkails were amazing too, they don't spare on details! The only bad thing was that we had to leave this paradise and go back to reality, other than that if you wish to escape into a secret paradise eden then this is the best choice, we will for sure come back again!

The hotel is right next to the beach. You can clearly see the ocean view from the room. The facility, food, and service are the best among all the places during our stay here in Tanzania. Especially the food is absolutely AMAZING. We did a little cycling and enjoyed our time at the pool. Wish we could stayed there for longer!!! ><

FAQs about hotels in Matemwe

What guests said about Matemwe:

Matemwe was nice - the beach part.

Matemwe was nice - the beach part. Sad to see the poverty behind the gates of the hotel. The tides were a bit different from what we have expected as the water would leave the beach at 9am and return around 5pm. If you did not make it to swim early in the morning, you missed it. We took a reef walk which was beautiful, saw a lot of see creatures, and that was very amazing experience. Also took a boat tour to see the sunset - it was worth the trip. Did not like how the locals would just stop on the beach and start shouting at you to buy smth. Also the part of the hotel beach is not segregated in any way, which does not give you a privacy enough. The food was amazing though - the hotel goes much beyond - and all day brekfast concept was amazing.

Matemwe is ideal for relaxing and spending quality time with friends and family. Matemwe is near Mnemba island 🏝️ for swimming with dolphins 🐬 . We rode bicycles 🚲 around the village and the place felt very safe. There are few alternative places for lunch or dinner. Not too far from stone town.

Matemwe beach was huge and totally uncrowded - some days we were lucky to see 10 - 20 people pass by! Loved the Massai beach hawkers - friendly and laid back happy to have their pictures taken - no hassle or relentless chasing - once told 'no' they respected our space. Recommend a day trip to Nungwi for a completely different vibe and fantastic sunset. Matemwe is somewhat isolated and if you want to get around you need to secure the number of a local taxi driver - always bargain hard beforehand. Most hotels organise trips/tours but at a premium.

It was a quieter beach which was nice which also meant not too many people hassling you to buy things. Those that did were respectful. Beach is nice but the sea depth is very shallow most of the day so swimming wasn't the easiest and there was a lot of seaweed when we were there.

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.

A beautiful spot for your next stay in Zanzibar! The hosts were hospitable and made you feel very welcome as soon as you stepped through the door. The facilities and amenities were fantastic, and best of all was the food! The food was delicious and a must for anyone staying. The restaurant is also open to guests from outside the hotel. I highly recommend Haber for your stay in Zanzibar.
