We were thoroughly impressed. The rooms were clean and well-maintained, with all the necessary amenities including a TV. The hotel staff were truly awesome - they were welcoming, friendly and always ready to assist with any request or inquiry. The location of the hotel is perfect, with stunning views of the ocean and easy access to the beach. The hotel's facilities and services were top-notch, with a fantastic restaurant serving delicious meals and offered a great selection of soft drinks and fresh juices. One of the highlights of my stay was the fantastic service provided by the hotel staff. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable, and their friendly and attentive approach really made me feel at home. Overall, I highly recommend the Isla Bonita hotel for anyone visiting Matemwe, Zanzibar. The combination of clean and comfortable rooms, stunning location, delicious food, and outstanding service makes it a top choice for accommodation on the island.

The Villa is stylish and clean. There are two small pools on the territory which makes it perfect to cool downs when the tides in the ocean are high. The personal is very attentive and well trained. The food in the restraint is delicious!

We liked everything but if we had to choose the best things it would be: clean room, big toilet, very secure house and nice people. The village where the villa is at the center of Kendwa 2 minutes walking to the amazing beach! The pool is small but clean and great for taking a dip!

I spent four nights at the Ocean Breeze and everything was great, from Abdallah’s (the owner who has a thousand stories to tell) and the rest of the staff’s (Abduli, Nasrah and Nadia) welcome, to the plentiful breakfast (with lots of fruits like I like it!) and the spacious room.

I totaly felt in love with that place. AMAZING for solo travelers, memories-collectors, open minded and young spirit people. That place offers everything what you need like a backpacker - good facilities, free laundery, amazing staff and the cheap and affordable price. We also went for a dolphin tour for really good price (people on our boat paid 2 times more. If I return to Zanzibar on day, it will be because of that place. Thank you!

    Charming Boutique hotel lovingly designed down to the smallest detail. Wonderful rooms, large balcony, great breakfast and dinner. White powdery sand beach only one step away - quiet and clean at all times. Amazing owners. Very friendly and always helpful staff. Arranged for me everything. Service level: 10++/10. You come as a stranger and leave as a friend. Recommendation: 100%
