If you need any help you can always find him in the reception and I’m sure he will be happy to help you or to show you around. The stuff was amazing too specially Aziza.

    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.

    It's right on the beach, you can swim in the pool or watch the Indian Ocean from the sunbed or hammock just a few meters from you. The rooms are very large and cleany. The staff was very friendly, especially Hussein. The seafood was delicious and the cocktails completed a perfect day

    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)!
