Aahhh, just one day back at home in Mombasa, we are missing the relaxing quietness of Hakuna Matata Beach lodge. We booked for four nights at HM and had a super time there. It all started when we were picked from the airport and brought to HM. We were welcomed by Rose and Habiba who explained us everything about HM,... more

Perfect combination of great hospitality, friendly staff, attention to details, great cook and a little private beach. Great for relaxation away from the crowd. Rose, Fritz and the rest for the staff gave me a feeling of being a personal guest on my two day stay at Hakuna Matata. more

Hakuna Matata lives up to it's name, we had a truly relaxing stay. Rose and Fritz were the perfect hosts and all the staff were excellent. I can't recommend this resort too highly small enough to be intimate yet providing all you could want on an idyllic coral sand cove it is a perfect place to unwind. It's also near... more

Fritz and Rose welcomed us into the beautiful Oasis..... Hakuna Matata is beautiful. We had a fantastic suite for our honeymoon with a large lounge area, balcony overlooking the Ruins and beach, and the comfiest beds in Zanziar, with huge square pillows and soft sheets with air conditioning... The decor was a very tasteful mix of local colours and textures,... more

After a safari trip in Tanzania we spent a relaxation week at this wonderful place, and our impressions are thoroughly positive. HM is a small, well-tended resort at a historic place in a green tropical environment. The larger superior bungalows provide sufficient space with a large living room, an (air-conditioned) bedroom and a small clean bathroom. The staff is always... more

This hotel is really very special and we had a wonderful wedding and honeymoon there. The owners Rose and Fritz always try to make all your wishes come true... Our wedding day was just relaxing, we had nothing to do in advance, exept lay down for a massage - just relax and say 'Yes'. The food was very excellent -... more

We stayed in Zanzibar in January for 2 weeks, most of the time in Hakuna Matata Beach Lodge. Our result: Hakuna Matata is the absolutely best lodge on the island. It’s a place for people who really want to recreate and relax and have a nice time in a wonderful environment and extraordinary delicious food and wine. We really enjoyed... more

We had a standard room which for us had everything you needed and everything worked well. Housecleaning was very thourough and all the staff extremely... more

Hello, we have been traveling in Tanzania & Zanzibar for a couple of times. This year, after a week of beautiful safari at the serengeti & ngorongoro, we came to Hakuna Matata for the first time. Fritz, Rosie and their professional staff gave us a very warm welcome and we felt immediately like home! The lodges are very cosy with... more
