Matemwe Retreat
Matemwe Retreat is one of the most exclusive lodges on Zanzibar, arguably the ultimate in private luxury. Located on the east coast, across from Mnemba Island, it boasts just four spectacular villas. Each has its own plunge pool and access to a small, powdery-white beach that is exclusive to guests at Matemwe Retreat.
Our view of Matemwe Retreat
We were very impressed by the villas and the service at Matemwe Retreat. However, although it is perfect for people who want total privacy and solitude, more gregarious visitors should know that there are absolutely no public areas here at all. So if you want to mix and be sociable, this probably isn’t the right place for you.
