The word Paradise sums up the description for this property. The location directly on the beach is unparalleled. There are plenty of places to eat in walking distance as well as some water sports and massage places.
The property manager and chef took great care of us and made sure everything was taken care of. Checkin & checkout were seemless.

The property is literally on the beach, the most incredible location , very quiet and tranquil. Swimming pool, lounger chairs overlooking the beach. You can walk along the beach, there are a few places to have lunch/ drinks within 5-10 mins. The chef is amazing and cooks the most incredible meals for you. Check in very easy and very helpful host.
One point to note is the house does not have any windows , so if you are there in rainy season like we were it can get very damp and our clothes and shoes were all covered in mould as they could not air and no cupboards.
The verandah is also unusable in the rain as it floods.
Note the floor indoors and outdoors is very slippery and not suitable for toddlers, our little one had some very bad falls.
Overall the most amazing location but just few points as mentioned to note depending on time of travel!

We had a wonderful stay at the Maji Lodge. The location of the house is fantastic and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall, the house is well kept and offered all amenities we needed. Some parts of the house, like the sun deck or the kitchen, would deserve some renovations, though.
Our entire family has greatly enjoyed the stay and we think the quality/price ratio is still very good.

Beautiful hideaway
We had a lovely time at Maji Lodge. The staff were fantastic and made the whole stay very easy. The food provided was delicious and we enjoyed many meals cooked for us at the villa. The beach setting was stunning and further places to eat and drink were a short walk away. Natalia was very helpful in the lead up, organising the airport transfers and answering the many questions we had. It was a beautiful, quiet and relaxing holiday in a lovely villa and stunning location. Thanks you to all the staff at Maji Lodge.

A lovely property with lush vegetation, a superb terrace overlooking the beach and the ocean (exactly as on the picture). Beautiful, comfortable and spacious house on the beach. The 4 bedrooms are very large with their own bathroom and toilet. Large double living room, very practical kitchen, table for meals on shaded outdoor terrace. Natalia and Michal are always available to help or advise. They arrange everything for you (cleaning, food shopping, snorkling excursions, airport transfers, taxi booking, massages). Snorkling equipment, some children's beach items are available. The staff present (guard / maintenance) on the spot is discreet and efficient. Cleaning is done regularly, the house is very clean. A chef is available on request and cooks very well and adapts to your desires. Several restaurants are accessible by the beach (1 to 6 minutes walk) but beware, some do not offer any alcoholic beverages.
Note that Matemwe is 60 to 90 minutes drive from the main town of Stone Town, I would not recommend Majilodge to people who want holidays with a day and night life animated (pubs, nightclub ...).
And we HIGHLY recommend Natalia and Michal's house to those wishing to relax with family or friends in Zanzibar. We had a wonderful stay with friends with children in Majilodge. Many thanks to Natalia for her kindness and availability.

We (4 couples) had a wonderful time in Natalia's villa in Matemwe. There are restaurants nearby on the beach if you want to order-in or eat out. The beach is stunning. Do take note that the low tide doesn't allow you to swim but you can always do a lengthy walk to the coral to watch marine life.
