    stunning views
    unbeatable location
    communication issues

    Stayed in a Junior Suite Partial Ocean View with stunning views that never got old. The location is unbeatable, with easy access to both the beach and nearby local attractions, making it perfect for those who want to explore the area.

    it showed full capacity when the dining rooms weren't. The beachfront is a hotspot for local vendors, which can be charming but became intrusive over time—perfect for browsing, but not for uninterrupted relaxation. Had to navigate some communication issues when arranging activities, and the tide changes really affect swim times, so it's got a quirky charm but requires a bit of planning.

    A Family Paradise with Exceptional Experiences!

    We cherished our family time at this beautiful resort! The kids club was a hit with our 5-year-old, keeping him entertained and cared for while we enjoyed relaxing by the stunning beach. Don't miss trying their diverse dining options for a truly delightful culinary experience!

    great location
    fun activities
    free wifi
    poor management communication

    Had an amazing time with friends! We enjoyed room service and the kids' club, and the free WiFi made everything easy. The billiards and table tennis kept us entertained, and the location was perfect for us. Highly recommend this spot for a fun getaway!

    However, I was disappointed that the management didn’t address my dietary restrictions personally after my experience at the Jua Grill. The staff could have done better to make guests feel heard.

    breathtaking beach
    spacious room
    frustrating app
    limited dining options

    The beach was simply breathtaking! 🏖️ The room was nice and spacious, but the restaurant app was frustrating and we had to eat at the same place for 3 days. Overall, a solid stay.

    Had an unforgettable time here! The friendly staff made everything feel special from the moment we arrived. The beautiful pools and the food were top-notch, especially breakfast. Plus, the spa with its heavenly couples massage was a highlight of our stay. We also loved the variety of water activities available, especially the snorkeling!

    Our stay at The Mora Zanzibar was simply fantastic! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel special from the moment we arrived. The pools were beautiful, and the spa offered a couples massage that was just heavenly. Both restaurants served delicious meals, and breakfast was a highlight each morning. We also enjoyed paid water activities like snorkeling and dolphin watching, which were unforgettable experiences.

    I can't think of anything negative.

    fantastic pools
    top-notch spa

    The pools are fantastic, and the spa treatments are top-notch. We loved snorkeling trips and the beachside grill for lunch.

    Felt cared for, no complaints.

    golden malted waffles
    friendly staff
    stunning beach views
    lackluster spa experience
    neglected guest comforts

    The golden malted waffles were a revelation, and the friendly staff were the cherry on top of an already delicious cake! I also can’t forget the stunning beach views and relaxed vibe, truly a slice of paradise right in Matemwe.

    For a 5 resort, the spa felt a bit neglected, with towels lazily draped on loungers. More attention to guest comforts and better training could elevate the experience. Hooks and drying options would’ve been a sweet touch too.

    beautiful beach
    friendly staff
    spacious room
    poor dining service
    cocktail quality

    The Mora in Matemwe was an impressive spot to unwind. The beach view was absolutely breathtaking, and the responsible care to maintain the property stood out. I loved lounging by the pristine pool area, where I spent plenty of time soaking up the sun. My room, a Garden Junior Suite King, was spacious and came with excellent air conditioning. Housekeeping was top-notch, ensuring everything remained spotless, with fresh towels frequently provided. The dining options were truly delightful, offering a variety of delicious meals, especially breakfast, which featured local favorites. However, I faced a few hiccups. While my overall experience was fantastic, the cocktail and food quality at the bar could definitely use some improvement. There were moments when the service from bar staff felt slow, which was disappointing. Additionally, during peak times, the restaurant appeared a bit understaffed, affecting the dining experience. Despite these points, I felt welcomed by the friendly staff, who were always ready to assist. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
