Matemwe Retreat is located on an amazing stretch of private land, overlooking the Mnemba Atoll. The villas are part of Matemwe Lodge and accessed via the main lodge along a scenic walkway through the gardens.
The Retreat consists of three fabulous, separate villas, full of atmosphere, inspiration and personal touches.
The ground floor of each villa features a private cocktail bar, an air-conditioned bedroom and a beautiful bathroom with double basins, shower, and large romantic bathtub overlooking the Indian Ocean.
One of the very best parts of each villa is the plunge pool on the private roof terrace complete with sun and shade decks.
Breakfast is served each morning on the private veranda of your room, your own chef will also stop by to discuss lunch and dinner preferences which can be served in the privacy of your garden or roof terrace. You also have the option throughout your stay to take lunch or dinner at Matemwe’s main lodge where you can enjoy the company of other guests.
Drinks are served in the room or on the beach and you can have massages and beauty treatments in the comfort of your roof terrace, overlooking the Indian Ocean
The Retreat was built by local craftsmen, and where possible from local materials, so the walls are of local stone and the roofs are made of makuti (woven palm leaves). In addition most of the furniture is made from locally produced coconut wood, the soft furnishings are produced by Zanzibari women and the matting by the blind association in Stone Town.
This is a very exclusive luxury option and perfect for people who really want to get away from it all and have their own space.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.
Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.
The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.
Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
