“We loved our stay there and hope to be back.”

We loved our stay here and the view was so beautiful. Every moment there was so good. The food was fantastic. The room was beautiful and decorated so well. It was so comfortable, with a fan and an air conditioner. The pool was lovely. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed going to the sister properties and walking on other beaches. The Taxi driver to go to the other lodges called Alpha was so friendly and helpful.The dive center was excellent and Hamissi was really the best instructor and Billy was great, helping me snorkel. Hopefully the marine park can be kept well with the help of the lodges and hotels and the government. The gardens are beautiful.

“Worthwhile lifetime experience.”

The ocean view suite was incredible and the waters are just calm and soothing. The environment is one of peace and calm: the serenity is unmatched.

“Pieceful stay and straight access to Mnemba boat trip”

Small and private. Beautiful sea view.

“Good If you are happy chilling by the pool and not doing much in the ocean or surrounding area.”

The hotel itself is quite beautiful on a large landscaped ground overlooking a beautiful piece of ocean with an island and a lovely pool area.

It has a good pool with a view of the ocean and the Mnemba island is properly visible from here. The staff were courteous and available to answer all queries. They also came to do a mosquito spray. Rooms also felt quite spacious.

Amazing surroundings, very relaxing and quiet spaces with beautiful gardens and spectacular sea view. Good service, spacious clean rooms.

We chose this resort mainly because it has an on site dive centre, and it turned out to be an excellent decision. We completed our Open Water course with Hamissi, and it was an absolutely amazing experience — professional, fun, and very reassuring. Highly recommended! From the moment we arrived, everyone made us feel like part of a big family. The staff genuinely take care of you and go out of their way to make your stay special. The resort offers a stunning sea view. While there is no direct beach access, this is absolutely not a problem: during the day there is a free shuttle service to nearby sister resorts, where you can choose between a public beach or a private beach. Both options are fantastic, so you really don’t miss out on anything. Another big plus is the free daily yoga, which was a wonderful way to relax and start the day. The spa treatments are also excellent. we tried them and they were absolutely amazing. And the food… simply wow! Huge compliments to the chef and the entire team, every meal was delicious and beautifully prepared. Overall, a wonderful resort with great diving, outstanding staff, excellent food, and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. We would definitely come back!

“Excellent stay at Sunshine Marine Lodge. The villas are lovely and set in beautifully manicured gardens. Excellent pool”

Quiet and small Great swimming pool Nice menu

Super shady! They called me up informing they had double charged me and would like to refund - I was impressed at the honesty. Sent me the photo of my bills etc. And asked for my credit card details (!) for refund!. When I asked them to refund to my bank account instead, they ghosted me.

“Honeymoon in paradise with sunshine marine lodge”

I can't express enough how much we loved this place with my wife, we had the best honeymoon anyone can ask for, the service from is just incredible (Hassan!!!, Veronica, Mudy, Saidi, peter, daniel , the mangers...) thank you so much for this experience, Zanzibar is beautiful, but you made it a paradise!!!!!!

The lodge has an amazing view, nice swimming pool, friendly staff and managers, a joint diving center and yoga opportunities every weekdays. The food was also beyond our expectations. We have taken the honeymoon offer and it was well worth it: snorkeling, 3 course dinners, couple massage, airport transfer, also we booked the oceanview suite and the it’s stunning. They also have free shuttle bus to the sister-hotel’s private beach.

Great Location, Perfect Place to Relax. Shuttle to 2 further hotels in very close distance was ideal if you wanted to have Beach Access. Diving Center at the hotel was excellent as well as the Short Distance to the atoll. Also we appreciated that the Hotel Group has a inhouse Hotel Doctor to Support with our son‘s middle ear infection.

“A little slice of paradise”

I absolutely loved my stay and would absolutely go back again! It’s a small hotel with beautiful grounds, stunning pool and scenery looking onto mnemba island. There is no beach, but this didn’t bother me with such a beautiful view and you can get the shuttle bus to the sister hotels (azure and sunshine bay) to go onto matemwe beach. I did this and have to say that I’m so glad I didn’t choose either of those hotels and was happy to go back to mine. I had a lodge room (number 1) looking out to sea and I could have stared at the view forever! The staff are so friendly and helpful and nothing is too much hassle. The food was lovely, a wide menu with a range of specials on each evening. There’s plenty of room by the pool and there’s little areas of sun beds if you don’t want to be right next to the pool. There are only a couple of beds that get the complete sunshine all day, just to note for other sun worshippers! I don’t know why other reviewers have put more negative comments as they’re really not deserved, people should read the description of the hotel and know there is no beach before commenting that there isn’t a beach!!

“Beautiful resort, but not much to do”

The resort is beautiful and the rooms are very nice and comfortable. The breakfast buffet is big and very good. Overall the food is quite good.

The Dive Point, the whole „feeling“ warm and welcoming staff. Everything was perfect.
