Set in botanic gardens by the ocean, the hotel is 10 minutes from Stone Town or from the Airport. The new Mangrove Bar perches over the ocean, perfect for that evening sundowner! Our new jetty passes through the mangroves to the sea - making embarkation to Chumbe Island and other boats much easier!

Offer many exciting activities including a dhow trip to the sandbanks opposite the hotel, swimming, fishing, diving, snorkeling, a nature trail and visits to see the spice plantations, stone town and to swim with dolphins.

Romantic ruins from the era of Livingstone can be explored in their lush botanic garden environment, and over the years we have striven to provide a personal and discreet service in one of the most beautiful natural and historic situations in Zanzibar.

Property Amenities
  pool  Rain tree Restaurant

The pool lies just above the beach, with its beautiful swaying mangrove trees; this is a perfect place to watch the sun go down. You can canoe or swim along the shore or in the pool. You can take a dhow trip from the beach, to the sandbanks opposite, or even into Stone Town.

The Rain tree Restaurant is set on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean and offers delicious combinations of International and Zanzibari food. Provide a full English breakfast prepared before your eyes, combined with a buffet of island fruits, yoghurt and cereals, freshly-squeezed fruit juices and a selection of herbal teas. For lunch, guests can sample one of our specially prepared salads or explore the extensive menu. Our chefs use fresh market produce and seafood specialties from the Indian Ocean.

There are so many things to do at Mbweni. The advantage of being on the beach but close to the Stone Town, is that you can take any of Zanzibar's exciting trips from here and return to peace and tranquility in the evening or can swim or snorkel from our beach or in the clear blue pool. From Mbweni itself we also organize our own trips: to the sandbanks opposite the hotel, where you can swim and snorkel on pristine beaches. Your staff will set up a shade and prepare a delicious barbecue lunch. We have a nature trail around the grounds or you can go canoeing in the mangrove glades just to the south.
