After 4 nights on safari and a further 6 climbing Kili a week on Mnemba was the perfect way to unwind and enjoy the rest of our honeymoon. There is little to do on the island - which was what we were looking for after such a hectic month - and slowing everything right down allowed us to start enjoying... more

Absolutely stunning island. We stayed 10 nights on Mnemba island for our honeymoon and couldn't have chosen better. The bandas are tremendously well appointed and are a genuine barefoot 5 star. The food is genuinely top class as are all the staff. Diving is varied and excellent, we learned to dive here and they catered for us without problem. The... more

We had a week on Mnemba as part of our honeymoon and fell in love with the place. It is like nowhere else on earth that I have seen or heard of. The island itself is stunningly beautiful and very exclusive. Even though it is very expensive, if you can afford it you should go and you will see that... more

After reading the reviews of mnemba before going i thought i would add in my own now i have been, and felt in particular i should put rest to any concerns from the review before mine. I can happily say that after being on the island, found none of these factors to be a problem for us.....sarah and mike (the... more

We have just returned from a four night stay at Mnemba Island Lodge. Anyone considering heading out there should have a quick look at the “experience” below. Yes the island provides an exclusive experience, however I truly feel there is work to be done. Upon arrival on the Island we were greeted by Peter who explained the ins-and out of... more

Mnemba truly paradise on earth... We spent 6 days on the island, following 6 days on safari. Be prepared for the final bouncy 25mins of the car transfer, and after that, its a different world.. We had Banda 3 on the island and the location is wonderful - it is the perfect position to watch the sunset from the beds... more

Mnemba Island is operated by a company called "and Beyond" (formerly CC Afica) and that is what it is - AND BEYOND!!! The 90 minute transfer was a bit rough going through extremely impoverished areas and the last 30 minutes of bumpy road, but the payoff was at the complete opposite of the spectrum! Perfect turquoise water, pristine white beaches,... more

My wife and I wanted to finish our honeymoon on a high and Mnemba delivered in a BIG way. Roads in Tanzania are pretty poor by most standards but the road out to the boat jetty was exceptionally bad. For us this only added to the experience and the thrill. When we arrived we were met by the management team... more

There isn't a lot I can add to the other reviews here. They give a pretty good picture of Mnemba. I have been lucky enough to stay in some amazing places in Africa and elsewhere, but this is as close to paradise as I've ever been. It is expensive - but you get what you pay for and you won't... more

My husband and I spent three nights at Mnemba. Having stayed at many five star resorts, we have become jaded in our expectations. Mnemba definitely surpassed them. The private island is absolutely perfect. The bandas are beautiful (in fact the pictures on Mnemba's website don't do them justice). The decor had a Playboy grotto feel. The sand was absolutely white... more
