ハクナ マジウェ ビーチ ロッジ

Hakuna Majiwe is a safe, clean, and well-maintained location, offering a pleasant living environment. It is advisable to prepare a well-structured budget, as there may be unexpected costs, such as the Zanzibar government tourism taxes. While prices are somewhat higher than average, which is typical for similar destinations, the quality of services provided is excellent and meets expectations.

The food menu is overpriced and not very good.

The staff were very friendly and tried their best. However, a recent storm (two weeks before) had devastated half of the hotel, destroying the kitchen and dining area and removing several roofs. When we arrived, the hotel looked like a bombsite with debris everywhere which was quite unsafe. A basic breakfast was offered in an empty bedroom in a make-shift kitchen. We were awaken every morning with the sound of hammering and construction in the next rooms. The rooms had functioning ACS, but the windows had no glass only mosquito nets to it was difficult to sleep. Essentially, great location, friendly staff, but hotel should not be open until the major repairs had been conducted.

We stayed here for 7 nights and paid £1102 for this, which was not good value for money. The staff are all incredibly friendly and amenable. However, the bungalows are tired and run-down, the door handle was nearly coming off to our room, the taps are severely lime-scaled and wall switches with holes in them? We had to ask for hand soap, toilet roll and we had to keep asking for a towel. The towels and bedding were stained. There is no mattress protector. The breakfast was awful; stale cereal and bread, the only meat was a processed hot dog and the coffee was instant powdered, which is a huge shame because Tanzania produces coffee. There was a pod machine for the coffee, but this was an additional $3. We decided not to eat there for any other meal. The location is ok, you have to walk at least 15 to 20 minutes to get to another restaurant or bar, but it felt safe to do so along the beach. While the beach is beautiful in Paje, the beach here was very sea-weedy, so you cannot enter the water here. It was definitely not value for money and was disappointed when I contacted hotels.com for help on arranging another hotel and they advised it was non-refundable.

Amazing hotel, will come back!

This is a tired somewhat rundown resort. It seems apparent to us that the manager is not willing to put any money into maintenance or any updates on this property. The food choices for breakfast were on such a shoestring budget it was almost insulting. Literally no cheese or dairy and the only meat were hot dog wieners. There was a sign on the Buffay one morning advertising chicken samosas but when I asked about them the server said “no… We didn’t make them“. The dartboard didn’t have any darts and the foosball table was so unbalanced you couldn’t play on it. All the cushions were dirty and worn out on all of the patio furniture and the towels were so rough they almost scratched your skin rather than drying it. The location feels somewhat isolated compared to other parts of the beach of Pagé. I highly recommend staying somewhere else closer to some action where you can watch kite surfers and multiple restaurants and bars are around. Lastly the bar at this resort was a joke. The wine was terrible the beer offerings sparse and the fridge was not cold enough to chill any of the beverages. The only saving grace was the second unit we stayed in had an ocean view and a nice outside swing. The first bungalow we were put in was pretty awful. The toilet was cracked, the bathroom dirty and twice we had to call staff to exterminate ants which were crawling all over the walls. Look elsewhere is my suggestion.

Hakuna Majiwe Lodge in Zanzibar - inferior value for money. Worn down rooms, suffering from long-term lack of maintenance. Paint is hanging in bathroom, leakage from toilets. Air-con in room hardly working. No power back-up when power outage. Facilities highly disapointing. Defintively way below what you expect for USD 225 per night in Zanzibar. Postives: good location on Padje beach and friendly personel.

Beautiful property with bar, great wifi, pool, beach and many chairs, little book exchange, and volleyball and soccer balls. Rooms are large, include bug net and front porch with day bed. Wonderful staff who are very friendly and helpful!

nous étions en voyage de noce, le personnel etait au petit soin et nous avons été surclasser.... bref à recomander

Wonderful staff and a great location on the beach front make Hakuna Majiwe Lodge the perfect choice when staying in Zanzibar.

Pace e tranquillità camera direttamente sulla spiaggia Unica pecca menù "monotono" cibo comunque ottimo Personale molto cordiale e disponibile

The staff was attentive, and the location was perfect!

This place has beautiful rooms right near the ocean with a nice breeze. Wonderful views from the room, with a hammock and chairs outside. The pool is big and it is nice. This is one of the only places on this beach with rooms so close and a nice breeze. The rooms are nice with air conditioning. The staff is nice. The only problem with this place is that we paid for half board before arriving and we were less than satisfied with the food. That is the only problem with this place. The menu never changed and the food was not good. The service was slow with the food and check, sometimes two hours total. The food tasted good but not fresh. We went down the beach to The Rock and had amazing meals that were fresh and tasted great. Stay here and eat (except breakfast) at The Rock.

Nice hotel right on the beach. It is close to the shops and restaurants around. Staff is really nice. It has a quite atmosphere. Breakfast is OK. The only negative is the dirtiness of shower water but only stayed for couple of days so it wasnt a big problem. Personally did not like Paje as it is really touristic compared to other locations but the hotel is recommended if you are planning to stay in that location.

Very relaxed place with a very nice beach. Food was very good.

Coupure électricité exesive.Pas d’eau chaude de 10 H30 a 17h30 et de 22h30 a 6 h30.Le service petit déjeuné prévu a 7h30 n’est pas près avant 8h00/8h15.Pour les repas du soir si un peut de monde pratiquement plus rien a mangé ( et le cuisinier de di je suis désolé il n’ya plus rien). Pour le bar le personnel a tendance a rejouter des consommations. Point positif la plage .

Effort sur variété des repas. Pas assez de quantité le soir souvent on arrive plus rien à manger mal gérer plus rien en cuisine. Pas assez de variété de dessert. Déjeuner matin copieux. Coupure d eau désagréable fréquent Situation hôtel paradisiaque. Agréable séjour Bel hôtel calme sérénité au rdv Ravie. Bach boys pénibles.

Ideal für Ruhesuchende, nette Anlage, sehr weitläufig und gepflegt. Zimmer optisch nett, Bett schon etwas durchgelegen. Bad renovierungsbedürftig, wir hatten an keinem der 5 Tage Warmwasser. Halbpension Essen immer das gleiche in Sossen (Fisch und Huhn) und Pizzaecken, Geschmack mittelmäßig, nur 1 Mal in 5 Tagen wurde Thunfisch gegrillt, dieser war hervorragend. Extremer Nepp beim Bezahlen in Dollar (schlechter Kurs), also besser genug TSH wechseln

Objekat se nalazi na samoj plaži. Prekrasna okolina u prirodi puna tropskih biljki drveća itd. Raj na zemlji drugim riječima. Imam samo jednu primjedbu a to je kuhinja ( svaki dan isto jelo ručak i večera)

Place is nice and neat. Really quiet and peacefull for relaxing. No party place and everything, inclueding the bar closes at 10pm. Pool is nice but the beach is not swimmable atleast in dec due to the extreme low tide water.
