Set in Matemwe and only 60 metres from Matemwe Beach, Boutique Villa Unaweza offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. This villa provides air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

It’s beautifully decorated, extremely clean and the staff are sweet and very friendly. They decorated our room for our honeymoon and we even received a free bottle of champagne. The pool was always clean and the facilities around it as well. You’re very short walk from the beach and can walk to local shops if you seek some variety . We had a problem with our water but that was fixed once we had brought up the problem with management. Overall I have nothing to fault them for. Thanks again for the lovely service.

    Zanzibar Magic Boutique hotel was the perfect stop on our honeymoon to Zanzibar. The staff were so friendly, the food amazing and the location was right on the beachfront. Matemwe beach is quieter than Nungwi or kendwa but the sea was lovely to swim in.

    Right on the beach, wonderful little place right next to the One Ocean dive centre. Stayed in the annex right next to the second pool, like our own private oasis. Very helpful staff and good food. The beach is wonderful for walks. Very peaceful and with the added bonus of live music or DJ most nights. Wonderful memories.

    The hotel and the rooms are very nice and cozy! The staff was wonderful and very helpful. Massage was 100% amazing! Its a picturesque small hotel with a sense of ease and great style. Very nice pool area! Clean rooms and all areas were kept very cleen. Small private beach. When the tide is high you have the ocean really close to your sunbed and its beautiful. You wont get sunsets at this part of the island, go on a private boat tour with the boys on the beach (much cheaper and the price is 90% lower)!
