Ciara

From

Ireland

We had an incredible stay at infinity beach. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and hospitality by the owners Tomas and Maggie, who went above and beyond to ensure we felt completely at home. Their kindness and attentiveness made our stay unforgettable! The hotel itself is a work of art. Every detail was carefully designed to reflect a unique modern yet antique aesthetic. The rooms were spacious, elegantly designed, and offered incredible views of the beach and the semi Olympic sized pool, allowing us to wake up to the sound of the waves every morning. The food was another highlight of our stay. Every meal was delicious and the friendly, attentive wait staff made dining a lovely experience each time. Infinity Beach is a place that captures your heart. We left feeling like we got everything we needed from this stay and with a strong desire to return. If you're looking for a luxurious, intimate getaway in Zanzibar, this is the perfect place to unwind.

From

Australia

Nothing was too much trouble. The owners and staff would respond to any request immediately- we felt like we had found our little piece of paradise. The location was fantastic - loved watching the fisherman come in with their catch and the locals living their lives. Breakfast was amazing. The chef prepared whatever you wanted off the comprehensive menu. The poached eggs and pancakes were our favourite.

Maja from Slovenia

From

Slovenia

The staff was super friendly and they really took good care of us. Whatever we needed they provided and gave us a good information for spending our time in Zanzibar, they organised trips and transport. The food was really good, especially the new pizza recipe makes really good snack during the day, when launching beside the pool. The pool was fantastic, it is cleaned every morning and big enough for everyone. I would also recommend to try the SPA services. Also I loved the facilities for training in the morning (the gym and the yoga place) and enough space outside to have fun playing valley ball with my family.

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.

one of the nicest places we stayed on Zanzibar — spotlessly clean, rooms done to a very high standard (the newer ones could easily pass for five-star) and a fabulous location right on the beach, with a good sized pool and lovely staff. Rooms are very large and have balconies — incredibly good value. Dinner tip: go onto the beach, turn right and you’ll immediately come upon Pua Mbili — tiny little restaurant with some of the best food you’ll ever eat!
