We had a lovely stay here! The staff were so kind and friendly. I stayed here for my birthday and they made it very special. The restaurant also has a good range of food and drinks. It is located right on the beach so a great location. Would definitely recommend

Beautiful Stay at Maisha Matamu – A Slice of Paradise! Our stay at Maisha Matamu in Paje was absolutely wonderful. The place is stunning – peaceful, beautifully designed, and with an incredible view that makes you feel like you’re in paradise. The staff were warm, attentive, and truly made us feel at home. A special thanks to Melisa, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. Her kindness and attention to detail really stood out. We loved every moment here and would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

As good as it gets! Such a fabulous hotel. Run by a group of dynamic young people who really have their local community at heart. Located right by kitesurfers paradise beach with a restaurant that leaves nothing to be desired. Very safe and pleasant for solo female travellers. The team are so lovely, I want to specifically mention Rose and Happy! Will come back soon!

Virkelig et dejligt sted ned til stranden med tidevand. Der er en mindre ok pool. Rene og Fine værelser. Maden er virkelig lækker og personalet er meget søde og imødekommende. Kan kun anbefale stedet.

Perfekter Aufenthalt! Das Hotel bietet alles was man braucht. Die Aussicht vom Strand ist einmalig. Das Uimmer war sauber und sehr schön. Und selten so ein nettes Personal gesehen. Der Aufenthalt war excellent.

Helt underbar strand och vackert blått vatten. Maten suverän och bra urval på frukostar. Extremt trevlig och tillmötesgående personal. Var dock medveten om att priserna när man ska äta håller svensk prisnivå.

Schöne und kleine Anlage direkt am Strand. Wir waren 12 Tage im Hotel und die Zimmer wurden täglich gereinigt und es gab immer neue Strandtücher. Stromausfälle sind ganz normal und kommen fast täglich vor. Das Licht geht aber relativ schnell wieder an. Zum Frühstück gibt es eine Karte mit verschiedenen Variationen, die man sich aussuchen kann. Bei einem längeren Aufenthalt hat man dann aber nicht so viel Abwechslung. Personal überall sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man kann auch vor Ort Ausflüge und Touren buchen.

Great location. Helpful friendly staff. Only downside is it lets smokers amongst normal people. Very annoying and unhealthy.

O local tem um ambiente muito legal, atendimento ótimo. Porém não há televisão nos quartos, há muita claridade e barulho de música pra dormir. A cortina não tem blecaute. O valor da taxa da cidade que me foi passado pelo hotéis.com não conferiu com o valor cobrado pelo hotel e tive que pagar 13 dólares além do que me foi passado pelo hotéis.com.

Das Hotel liegt in direkter Strandlage und ist wirklich sehr idyllisch gestaltet. Sehr klein und "privat familiär"... Die Bilder im Internet täuschen bezüglich der Größe der Anlage. Der Pool ist ziemlich klein. Zudem täuscht die Bilddokumentation. Man hat den Eindruck, dass in der Anlage auch kleine afrikanische Rundhütten zu finden - bzw. als Upgrade vor Ort buchbar - sind. Das stimmt jedoch nicht. Die Hütten gibt es nicht mehr, gehörten jedoch wohl früher zur Anlage und wurden abgerissen. Es gibt eigentlich nur zwei langgezogene Bungalow-Häuserzeilen (ähnlich einer Reihenhaussiedlung), in denen sich ein Zimmer neben das andere reiht. Eine Häuserzeile scheint ziemlich neu, da sich dort wirklich schön gestaltete und modernisierte/neue Zimmer befinden. Unser Zimmer war älter und in Basic-Ausstattung eingerichtet, das Bad nicht mehr up-to-date, aber funktional (nicht mit Schwung auf die Toilette setzen, sonst kippt sie - Zimmer 10). Alles ist jedoch wirklich sehr sauber. Da man sich ja eh nur draußen aufhält, war das Zimmer für uns eher nebensächlich und schlichtweg "funktional". Es gibt keinen Kühlschrank. Insektenschutz befindet sich in der Schiebetür zum Zimmer, es gibt jedoch kein Moskitonetz über dem Bett. Es gibt einen Ventilator über dem Bett (ziemlich laut) und eine Klimaanlage seitlich vom Bett. Da die Betten nur mit Laken bezogen sind, kann es nachts schonmal etwas "frisch" werden. Abends kommt das Personal nochmal ins Zimmer und deckt das Bett auf... Empfehlenswert.

John at reception was AMAZING!! He was so friendly and attentive - he organized my rides and activities for me. I chose to stay in the rooms with AC and not the bungalow type rooms because it would have been to hot for me. The shower pressure isn't the greatest in my room. The hotel is directly on the beach and they have plenty of sun beds with umbrella shades. I wasn't a big fan of the food/drinks at the restaurant though but the staff was amazingly friendly. Would stay here again!

The hotel grounds, staff, and views are fantastic! The beach bungalows are rustic with no A/C, but it was worth it to experience the welcoming staff, beach access, and good food.

Godt hotel med rigtig god beliggenhed direkte til vandet - Venligt personale i reception, dog mødte jeg mindre hjælpsomhed i restauranten, hvor jeg havde en ubehagelig oplevelse - Restauranten var ret dyr iforhold til priserne på Zanzibar, men maden var rigtig god - Fine værelser for et mindre ophold. Dejlig seng at sove i. Dejligt med myggenet, Dog ingen aircondition så det var alt for varmt, og upraktisk toilet - De passer godt på dyrene - Stedet var renligt

Flott plassering på stranda i Paje. Kort vei til sentrum. OK mat på hotellet og mange andre restauranter i nærhet som også er verdt et besøk. Noe støy fra nabohotellet som kjørte livemusikk og DJ til rundt 02:30 på kveld. Vi hadde bungalow 104 (2etg). Det er palmebladvegger så utelyd høres veldig godt og så du bør ikkje ha museskrekk om du bor slik. Dusj fungerte og betjening slo opp moskitonett over seng kvar kveld. Hotellet har også andre rom med høyrere standard og høyere priser. Personalet var generelt servicevennlige og hyggelige. Må nevne at personen som foretok innsjekking lurte oss ved å kreve 6 usd pr dag i turistskatt. Rett sum skal være 5 usd i Zanzibar. Så vedkommende lurte til seg totalt 8 usd. Ikkje stor sum, men slikt er irriterende og gir hotellet dårligere tilbakemelding.

Absolute ripoff. The room had white hospital lighting, smelled so bad that we couldn’t sleep and didn’t even have a shampoo or anything offered. Nothing about the hotel was to the standards of the price you pay. Stayed in way better boutique hotels in the area for 1/3rd of the price.
