Boasting garden views, Morningstar Bungalows Zanzibar offers accommodation with a garden and a terrace, around a few steps from Matemwe Beach. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and a housekeeping service, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The accommodation provides airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available.

The property was at an excellent location and Roxana, the host was super flexible and helpful. She advised us on many many things from the airport transfer to arranging tours and restaurants to visit as well. Even though breakfast was the same every day (toast, eggs, fruit salad) it was always substantial and tasty. The beach is very close with lots of places (hotels, restaurants) to visit and even spend the day at. There is a dog and a cat at the property both being extremely friendly as well. We would certainly go back here if we were to visit Zanzibar again!

Everything was incredible and made our trip a dream! The property’s location is amazing and the sea view room we booked was perfect. From the warm reception and great service, to the welcoming + very helpful + attentive staff, the clean rooms, big pool and great food for breakfast, lunch and supper (buffet of course), everything was awesome and made our trip most enjoyable. Picture this: have your afternoon coffee on a cushiony swing right on the beach with a gentle sea breeze on your face as you stare out into the crystal blue ocean and bury your feet in the powdery white sand. Thank you Mustafa and Ahmed for your hospitality and for being kind enough to let us check out late because our flight was late in the evening.

Featuring free WiFi, Mohammed Bungalows and Restuarant offers accommodation in Matemwe, 38 km from Zanzibar City. The guest house has a sun terrace and a private beach area, and guests can enjoy a meal at the restaurant or a drink at the bar.

It's a beautiful location right on the beach, with cozy seating overlooking the ocean. Mohammed and his team are just wonderful. I forgot a small camera in their restaurant when we left for stone town, and he and his wife really helped me out to get it back - I'm so grateful to them! He also arranged transport from the ferry with us, and was very forthcoming when we had to change some plans around last-minute. The food in the restaurant was amazing as well. Highly recommend this place!

The units at the bed and breakfast are equipped with a seating area. The bed and breakfast offers certain units that include a balcony and quiet street view, and every unit has a private bathroom and a desk. At the bed and breakfast, all units come with bed linen and towels.

I would recommend this accommodation. The property is definitely a new building, with outstanding open space outside and really big and modern apartaments. The location is very good: 150m from the beach and 500m from the center town, all at walking distance in few minutes. The view from the terrace is really great: you can relax in the morning and enjoy a good breakfast (European with mixed Zanzibar fruit) while enjoying the seaside view. There is no Wi-Fi in the building, but as suggested by Ali (the local guide), I have bought the local SIM card in the city center close to the apartment and it was working perfectly. Due to lack of time, I didn’t have time to enjoy the several experiences that Ali suggested me during the staying. I had an amazing vacation in Blue Villa Zanzibar, enjoying the pole pole Zanzibar philosophy. I would definitely come back

    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.

    Super friendly staff, clean and good rooms. The place has all the facilities you need. The food is delicious and the menu has a lot of variation. Very cheap, but felt like luxury. The location is not very central, but we loved the peacefulness and relaxing atmosphere. The place has everything you need. Would definitely recommend.

    Everything: They allowed us to check-in early (about 4 hours early) and check-out late for no extra charge, very accommodating. Staff were great, friendly with excellent service. Food was really good, different options every day and we were never disappointed. Great location, nice quiet beach, plenty of sun and shade spots. Would definitely recommend!!!!
