One of the first resorts to open in Zanzibar, Matemwe Bungalows is situated on a low coral cliff overlooking a stunning stretch of private beach, just north of the village of Matemwe. The hotel prides itself on its environmentally unobtrusive design and its extensive grounds which provide ultimate privacy for hotel guests.

This environmentally conscious approach is apparent down to the finest detail. The lush tropical gardens are dotted with amazing stone sculptures of sea creatures and local fauna and natural coral caves. The lush, tropical gardens are uniquely designed combining traditional landscaping techniques with the existing seafront terrain and foliage and feature several enormous aloe vera beds.

This hotel is ideal for those well seasoned travelers who are looking for a stylish yet unpretentious alternative to the more commercial alternatives.
