"The owner is super attentive and such a great guy. 10/10 reccomend"

"Aucun."

"The hospitality provided by the staff is second to none. The rooms are large and comfortable, the grounds beautiful, and the food delicious. The property is a little farther from the beach than I would have preferred, but good bicycles are provided, and we were driven to the dive shop twice; once when raining, and another when it was too dark to bike comfortably. Thanks to Meremeta, Hamissi, and the rest of the staff. This place is a gem."

"Meremeta and his staff were exceptional. Anything we needed from setting up tours to smaller meal portions, they were there to accommodate us. The rooms were very clean and the AC was mightily appreciated. The beds were firm but comfortable and the grounds were bursting with colorful flowers. The free bikes were great for getting to and from the beach."

"Would be nice to be closer to the water, but it was a minor issue."

"Meremeta lodge Meremeta Lodge was great. The rooms were clean, cool from AC, and the water hot! Most of all the staff was incredible. They take pride in ensuring that the food is delicious and the experience is exceptional. They arranged daily transport to the dive shop, tours to other areas of the island. When I didn’t prefer the meat as the main dish the cooked chicken instead. I asked if they served it on the island as I had a suspicion they didn’t. As a result, they had plenty of Coke Zero purchased ahead time for me I highly recommend Meremeta Lodge and if I return, I will definitely be staying with them."

"Would like to have had western alcohol at the ‘bar’"

"Meremeta Lodge is a very beautiful place in the Western side of Utende. Wonderful rooms and a spectacular lobby/restaurant. The owner is almost always present and super friendly and supportive, as is the rest of the staff. Our room had an AC which was a blessing. Breakfast was self-service but super tasty. Generally, the food was really nice and varied. Well spiced. And super tasty desserts! It is possible to borrow bicycles to get around, which is super helpful as this place is not located directly at the beach. However, you get there really quickly by bike, and the upside to the location is that it is rather quiet."

"Aucun."

"It was like staying in a cozy, private village. Meremeta, Suma and all of the staff were incredibly warm and welcoming. They were dedicated to making our stay in Mafia the best possible and always available for anything we needed."

"A bit too far from the port to walk."

"Meremeta and staff go all the way to give you a feeling like you are home! Such a beautifull place with amazing flower garden and all the different rooms have privacy around and in this garden!"

"Very beautiful location - peaceful and surrounded by nature. The staff was very kind and friendly and helped out with anything we needed. The rooms had very large bathrooms, and they were very clean and tidy."

"The beds were pretty uncomfortable and hard and the lodge is quite some distance from any swimming places."

Tomas - 28/01/2026 19:16:51

"Fantastic staff, service and food. We stayed, two couples, for three nights and liked it a lot! The staff was very attentive and friendly and Zuma cooked amazing food. Bicycles to borrow, the beack is 10 minutes away. Also went snorkeling wit the Meremeta boat and crew - world class!"

"Some distance (2km?) from the beach and no pool available yet, but the beach and excursuons are still easy to reach."

Guest reviews

"Veramente favoloso! La posizione è perfetta per raggiungere il nyerere National park. Il proprietario è gentilissimo e molto disponibile, ha organizzato per noi la visita al parco. Anche lo staff è preparato e gentilissimo. Lavorano al campo anche dei Masai che ti accompagnao la sera in camera e ti aiutano con le valige. La struttura affaccia direttamente sul fiume in una posizione sicura e rialzata e da qui si può organizzare un safari in barca della durata di circa due ore in cui si possono vedere coccodrilli, vari tipi di uccelli e ippopotami. La vista dalla camera è dalla zona comune è spettacolare. La camera è pulita e spaziosa e con una vista meravigliosa. Ulteriore nota positiva è il cibo, cucinato internamente sul fuoco e veramente buonissimo. Ogni dettaglio del campo, dagli alloggi alla cucina, è curato e garantisce un'esperienza immersiva. Riassumendo....meraviglioso e fortemente consigliato."

"It has very good and friendly staff..very helpful. I’d recommend it to anyone traveling to stone town"

"A cool place with a nice breakfast and friendly staff."

"Friendly host, clean and spacious room, perfect location for a flight (and still just 15 min by car to the city center). Would stay again!"

"The value here was phenomenal. Nice hotel right next to the center of Stonetown but off the main tourist path enough that it feels quiet and secluded. Great shower and decent size room."

"Clean and the hosts always available for anything needed."

"The location is right at the center of Stone Town."
