What a fantastic place to stay Haji and his staff could not do enough for us and made you feel 'at home', 15 out of 10!!!!! for friendliness and the way they looked after us. The tropical gardens were beautiful and it was great to walk down to the pool on the beach where there was a laid back bar for enjoying a drink before dinner

Ce lieu est magique de par sa localisation car lorsque vous empruntez le chemin caillouteux… très caillouteux, vous avez l’impression d’arriver nulle part et en fait, vous arrivez dans la jungle ; des petites maisons collées l’une contre l’autre seront votre chambre. Déco simple mais efficace tellement on se sent en immersion dans l’ambiance Zanzibarienne. Vous nagerez au gré des marées parfois capricieuses suivant les pleines lunes. Le bar de la plage vous permettra de vous désaltérer et de prendre vos repas. Dans une ambiance chaleureuse et conviviale

The Lodge is wonderful in its own way. Not a beach resort, but a mangrove garden. Many fantastic flowers and great accommodations. The central reception/bar/restaurant was very fun and beautiful. The owner is friendly and full of great suggestions for activities. However the drive to the place was full of huge potholes whichb were often full of rainwater. I was honestly scared to get out of the taxi, when we arrived in the dark and there was not a well-lit or well- managed welcome area.

We visited the Mangrove Lodge for our honeymoon looking to unwind after some adventures on the mainland. If you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place to relax in Zanzibar, this is it. Even if the lodge was fully booked, you hardly notice any of the other guests. The whole resort is spacious and the layout lends itself to privacy. The staff were incredibly friendly and accomodating, the rooms were clean, spacious, and the outdoor showers were cool! The food is delicious, and you might even spot a bush baby or colobus monkey hanging out while you indulge!

Very peaceful. Beautiful gardens and sunset from the beach bar area. Nice and spacious bungalows. Good food. Great hosts. Family run business in the middle of nature. Very good for relaxing. Nice chill area. Free and tasty tea and coffee throughout the day at the restaurant. Only downside were the many mosquitoes.

Ik heb in heel mijn leven nog nooit in zo'n verschrikkelijk hotel geslapen. Super onhygiënisch, vreselijk onvriendelijke eigenaar en enorm slecht eten waarvan ik me afvraag of er niet al veel mensen ziek door geworden zijn.

The Mangrove Lodge is set in expansive, beautiful gardens. The rooms are two together in spacious cottages, nicely decorated in Zanzibari style with well functioning airconditioning. Unfortunately no wifi in the room (it is available in the restaurant and at the beach). Food is very good and not expensive to Western standards, but takes a long time to prepare … think at least one hour. Therefore dinner orders are already taken in the afternoon. There is a menu of transportation and excursions, executed aa agreed although some unclarity about the cost (which could be resolved). Very nice pool/beach area with great beach bar. The road to the lodge is very bumpy, not inviting one to leave the lodge too often for excursions etc.

Great service, impressive decor in the middle of the Mangrove. A bit too many mosquitoes and well away from the main road but the staff and restaurant are excellent
