"The sea view is very nice. The hotel breakfast is also very tasty and their alacarte menu for dinner etc is also very tasty. The reception staff and housekeeping staff are very nice and very very helpful. They really try their best. I loved the hotel, only problem is that there was no alcohol available but otherwise its a very nice hotel. However, please note its not possible to enter the beach as its made of stones and water is very shallow."

"The Mizangani Seafront Hotel was an amazing, atmospheric bit of old Zanzibar looking out on the Stone Town harbor, and across from the Dar es Salaam ferry landing. They served a wonderful breakfast on the veranda. The reception and breakfast staff were very helpful and gave us a warm welcome. Our room was spacious and filled with beautiful Zanzibari details."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Mwembeshauri?
The best area to stay in Mwembeshauri is Stone Town, specifically within or very close to its historic core.Stone Town is a UNESCO World Heritage site and is the heart of Mwembeshauri, offering a unique blend of history and culture. It's characterised by its narrow, labyrinthine alleys, bustling markets, and beautifully carved wooden doors. Key landmarks include the Old Fort, Forodhani Gardens, and the House of Wonders, all easily accessible on foot.Couples looking for a memorable and authentic experience will find Stone Town an excellent fit. You can spend your days exploring the intricate streets, discovering hidden courtyards, and enjoying rooftop dinners with views of the Indian Ocean. The evening food market at Forodhani Gardens provides a fantastic opportunity to sample local cuisine.For travellers who appreciate convenience and want to be close to the main attractions, staying within Stone Town's historic centre is ideal.
When is the best time to go to Mwembeshauri?
The best time to visit Mwembeshauri is during the dry seasons, which run from June to October and then again from December to February.These periods offer consistently sunny weather with minimal rainfall, making it ideal for enjoying the beaches and exploring Stone Town comfortably. The temperatures are warm but generally pleasant, with cooler breezes from the ocean.For those interested in diving or snorkelling, the calm waters and good visibility during these dry months provide the best conditions for exploring the marine life around the island. It's also a great time for boat trips and other outdoor activities.If you prefer to avoid the busiest tourist crowds, the shoulder months of June and October can offer a good balance of favourable weather and fewer visitors.
