“Love the place and the staff and I'm definitley looking forvard to visiting again.”
The staff was really wonderful and made me feel welcome. They were very helpful with organizing everything I needed regardless of where I was. The food was delicious, especially homemade pineapple jam,which I highly recommend you try, becouse you won't get it nowhere else. Mohammed you are a genius! There was no power outage and they have good wi-fi conection. They have a very nice terrace for relaxing with hammocks and direct view of the beach. Perfect place to relax and enjoy while drinkink your fresh fruit juice or cold bear.

“I had a great stay! Thanks Mariam, Mohamed and children🙏”
Nice family runs the 6 bungalows. The public outside area is nice and you can look over the beach/sea. You can eat and drink in the restaurant and food is good. Calm and chilly place. Good value for money.

“Traditional bungalows and family runed”
The bungalows are located in a very quiet and traditional area, really isolated. The bungalows are clean and the decoration is very nice. Very plain bungalows, no AC. The family are super helpful and nice. I got sick and they helped me to get a taxi to the hospital and they escorted me there. You can get wi fi in the common areas.

Everything about Mohammed Bungalows was great. Location in the wonderful setting of Matemwe right on the beach, room which was specious and had everything we needed, vicinity to scuba diving sites and water based activities such as paddling and snorkelling. But most of all the staff and Mohammed’s family who were so welcoming and made us feel really at home. Not to mention that Mohammed is a fantastic cook and the meals we had were superb. We loved everything about our stay and highly recommended.

We stayed 4 nights at Mohammed’s bungalow. The rooms are directly to beach and very clean. The rooms contain two double beds, vans an a good bathroom with good working warm Shower. They have a very comfortable beach terrace with a nice bar and very good restaurant with delicious food. We really enjoyed the catch’s of day! Mohammed is a very kind Hosts and has a really kind family which always helps you if you need anything like driver for example! Mohammed also organized a driver for pick up at the airport! Next time in Zanzibar we are definitely come back to Mohamed!

Lovely family who helped us organise everything, using locals. We had our own snorkelling and fishing equipment which helped.

“Lovely place located right on the beach”
Mohammed and his family are great people, so nice and helpful. They made us feel like home. The location is amazing, you can eat breakfest looking at the beautiful ocean. The food is also really good. It's a great spot for divers. Next door there is a very nice diving center Blue Wave Diving.

“My stay at Mohammed was the worst I ever seen.”
Nothing went well. The man is acting like a "gangster of Business of Tourism". You should tell him to change that behaviour, treating visitors as his slaves, will poses problems in the future. If I knew, I wouldn't book for his Bungalow.
