The hotel room was nice and clean. Facilities were ok - the pool is falling in, and had some algae, but as the beach was not that great for swimming the pool was a refreshing option. We stayed on the east side of the island prior to Mtoni, so we had high expections for the beach. The neighbouring property is... more

We stayed for a week over Christmas, 2006 and enjoyed ourselves immensely. The property was lovely and the staff were very helpful. The food at both restaurants was quite good over Christmas and once the turkey was over, the food at the main restaurant was extraordinary! I would return for the food at any time. One of the local taxi-drivers... more

I travelled with my 14 year old son to mainland Tanzania and then on to Zanzibar. We only had a couple of nights in Zanzibar and so opted for a bit of beach which was close to Stone Town. Mtoni Marine suited us perfectly. The staff were helpful and friendly, the rooms were clean, the food was good and we... more

A group of friends and I decided to stay at Mtoni Marine Center during a short trip to Zanzibar. We wanted to visit Stone Town and also have some beach time, and this hotel provided a nice mix. It's about 5 minutes from Stone Town, but is quiet and has a pleasant, small beach. It's worth noting that the beach... more

Mtoni was our choice as a reasonably nice hotel, fairly close to Stonetown for sightseeing and the airport for an early departure on our last day. Our (Palm Court) room was comfortably and tastefully furnished and had a lovely balcony. The bathroom had a tub in addition to the shower and did not depend on the usual water boiler. The... more

Several of us stayed at Mtoni recently and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The rooms are pleasantly furnished and were kept very clean. The atmosphere at the bar is great. Enjoy dinner on the beach at Mcheza Bar or dine at the Mtoni Marine Restaurant where you will surely be happy with the quality of food on offer. The staff were... more

I have been staying at the Mtoni Marine hotel three times, and I certainly will stay there next time I visit Zanzibar too. What is specially nice about Mtoni Marine is that the hotel is situated within walking distance from Stone town, yet out of town on a nice private beach. If you think that the few kilometres are too... more

We went on honeymoon and had the most fabulous time! We were supposed to only stay there 3 nights - after being taken to spend our next 3 days at another hotel up the coast we quickly cancelled and booked the rest of the stay at Mtoni. I am not too sure about the previous review, but we had clean... more

After numerous e-mails we booked a family bungalow for the new year celebrations. What a DISASTER!!! The room was absolutely filthy! the bedding was stained and dirty and the management couldn't care less. After rejecting 5 rooms we were finally forced to endure a small double room for five of us, Stephanie 'the manager' laughingly refused our requests for a... more
