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.AodhanIreland - 8.0Scored 8.0

Matemwe and its area is a quiet place where you can relax and enjoy the beach, the activities (snorkeling, swimming with dolphins) especially if you are a couple, because the village is not very full of enterteinments or night parties.

Crystal clear water - despite there being sea urchins - if you have rock/ aqua shoes - you can still swim and explore the waters and reefs. The beaches are a lot quieter and peaceful than the busier beaches up north. The tides are also fascinating to watch- you can walk out to the reefs and cycle along the beaches when they go out!

Marafiki gets a 10/10 from us on all fronts - breakfast, lunch, dinner, pool, cleanliness, hospitality, music, sustainability, beach, communication. My husband and I stayed 4 nights at Marafiki after our Safari and had the most fabulous time. The rooms were very clean and quiet, and beautifully set up. The food is exceptional - please try the tuna tartar and all the specials! We had a relaxing time at the spa - you must try the full body scrub and massages. We used the free kayaks during sunset and enjoyed the stunning view from the water. The water is shallow so even if you go far, you can get off the kayak and swim. Since the hotel is east facing - sunrise is exceptionally beautiful. The water is still and shallow, and you can see all the fisherman walk up to the reef to catch the fish. The hotel also arranged a cooking lesson in Matamwe village for us - we learned how to cook ‘muchuzi’ from scratch which was a very meaningful experience. Overall- no negatives. We had the best time and will be back!

The beach is beautiful, but it's not really a beach you can swim on - there's a big tidal range - when it comes in it's quite choppy with lots of seaweed, and when it's out its corally with lots of urchins. But it's interesting to watch the local people looking for octopus and shellfish every day. It's quite a quiet area - all the bars are part of hotels. A few nice local restaurants around. Quite a lot of beach touts, which we found off putting. Not loads of activities to do in the area - 1/2 day snorkelling/dolphin watching trips at Mnemba Island basically.AlexUnited Kingdom

FaisalZambia - 8.0Scored 8.0Very GoodRated very good· 71 reviewsZawadi Beach Villas is located at a beautiful beach in Matemwe. The staff in the hotel is very nice and helpful and the hotel itself is spacious, has a swimming pool and its own restaurant. The hotel is a bit outdated and the aircon is not working properly in some of the rooms. It is a nice place to stay though for good value of money. Matemwe beach is very quiet, you won't see too many people around. It is worth to explore the small local restaurants along the beach, while you are there, for an absolutely delicious fish!AgaUnited Kingdom
- From $91.80 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very GoodRated very good· 208 reviewsThis is a beautiful boutique style hotel. The staff is very friendly. The beach setting and the rooms are beautiful but the best is the food. We had half board and there were always delicious choices on the menu board. It's not the cheapest place but the food is fresh, nicely spiced, altogether the best food we have had during our stay in Tanzania. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Its also a good choice if want to be close to the dive schools. They provide free pick up from the hotel.
UtaSwitzerland - From $135 per night7.7Scored 7.7GoodRated good· 455 reviewsThe hotel is a piece of Zanzibar ... traditional bungalows, palm trees in the courtyard, sand and hammocks where you can feel the ocean breeze just a few steps from the hotel ... the rooms are spacious and clean. The hotel has a swimming pool where you can start in the morning or relax after lunch with a cold drink ... the beach is right in front of the hotel where there are sunbeds. I recommend traditional cuisine and fresh fruit ... the staff was friendly, a big plus for Hussein
