Everything. Even before our arrival, Hans was always ready to answer our questions or our needs. And then once we were there, every thing was perfect. Hans and our private waiters Juma, are always there, with out you noticing them or bothering you, but always that you need anything they are there for you, to help your dreams of a perfect honeymoon come true. The staff are amazing, polite nice, punctual, everything. And the place a perfect chill spot only a few minutes drive from the noisy crowded areas of Nundwy or Kendwa. I highly recommend to ask for a boat day trip, to do some snorkel and eat fresh fish on a bbq in the middle of the ocean with amazing beach views. We rely love our time there and If any time of my life I go back to Zanzibar I for sure will go there. BTW, the food there is amazing good, always a different option, fresh cooked for you and with veg options.

The atmosphere in this place is peaceful, the staff are genuinely kind, and everything feels very personal. Our room was bright, clean and opened straight to a beautiful garden area. Breakfasts were fresh and varied. The beach nearby is wide and beautiful , perfect for long walks. . It’s not a huge resort, and that’s exactly what makes it special. You feel like you’re being taken care of, not just another booking.

My wife and I visited Zanzibar for the first time in March 2025. We spent the first four days at the Infinity Boutique Hotel in Matembwe and were absolutely enchanted. I rarely give exceptional ratings, and certainly not for every checkbox, but this is exceptional to a degree that merits the rating. The property is new so everything is in excellent condition. It owned and managed by a couple that moved there from Poland to start the venture. Tomak and Margo are kind, warm, hospitable, and helpful hosts. My wife didn't have a hat for the harsh sun. Maggie loaned her one. There was a problem with a leak in our bathroom. Tomak ensured the problem was fixed quickly. I developed a slight sunburn on my head. Maggie brought aloe vera ointment without being asked. We did day trips to Ningwi and for snorkling near Mnemba Island. They organized everything and ensured flexibility to accommodate changing weather during the rainy season, when we were there (we recommend it). We were the only guests for one day and night. There was another couple on other days, but we really had the place to ourselves. It was tranquil and relaxing!! We were treated like family and felt that way. The bed was very comfortable. The AC is excellent. Excellent WiFi reception everywhere on the property. The views are breathtaking. I have marvelous sunrise pictures. The pool is spacious and was always available for a swim. The staff were cheerful, professional and very likeable. Several became friends. Sitting on the open-air covered terrace sipping a cold one and watching the tides roll in and out was our best memory of Zanzibar. The ocean is many shades of blue with white, fine sand. The meals were delicious. Chef Sultan made flawless dishes. Best fries I have ever had, including in Belgium.

Haber Hotel is a fantastic place! Small family hotel located in Matemwe, it offers comfort and quiet atmosphere for a relaxing holiday. I would recommend it to all those who want to avoid the big crowded noisy touristic hotels on the coast but in the same time want to stay close to beautiful beaches (nearby you can find Muyuni beach and Matemwe beach). The owners, Kris and Kasha, are great and would do everything to make the stay of the guests unforgettable. The staff is very kind and the whole dynamic of this property is tailored to fit the needs and comfort of the guests. Breakfast is fabulous, served from 8am till noon, for those who like to sleep in late, and for lunch and dinner we could chose delicious options from a rich menu or even off menu. Pets are welcome (the hotel is actually named after Haber, the owners' cute Cocker Spaniel). At any time of our stay we felt welcome, safe, well taken care of and even spoiled.
