馬提來精品飯店(Boutique Hotel Matlai)

C'était notre deuxième séjour dans ce boutique hôtel de 6 chambres. Cette fois, nous avons séjourné dans l'une des 2 chambres de leur villa Kidosho. Autant dire que c'est la plus belle chambre que nous ayons eu dans notre vie! Piscine à débordement qui donne sur l'océan indien, jardin privé où vous avez l'embarras du choix pour vous mettre au soleil, ou à l'ombre. Très grande salle de bain avec même une baignoire. Chambre énorme et décorée avec tant de goût. Mais ce qui fait la différence de tout cela, ce sont les détails et il y en a beaucoup. Les repas peuvent être pris, où bon il vous semble dans la propriété. Ce qui donne, là encore, une sensation de liberté et de luxe. Le personnel est extrêmement attentionné, amical et professionnel. Merci de nous avoir fait passé un séjour mémorable. Nous reviendrons!

Wunderschöner Ort, großzügig luxuriöses Zimmer, sehr guter Service, direkt am Strand, also wirklich direkt! Einzig die Küche kann leider nicht ganz mit dem sonst Gebotenem mithalten. Es muss ja keine Sterneküche sein, ein bisschen mehr Mut zum Gewürz wäre aber doch zu empfehlen. Trotzdem volle Punkteanzahl.

Endroit d’exception, tout est fait pour notre plaisir dans un cadre idyllique et une nourriture fantastique!

Hôtel magnifique, excellent séjour du début à la fin, spécial mention pour notre major d’homme Hashim et le responsable Mohamed qui nous ont parfaitement accompagné durant notre séjour. Si vous souhaitez passer un séjour inoubliable n’hésitez pas réserver cet hôtel. Tout le personnel est au petit soin pour vous, l’arriver à l’hôtel est juste magnifique et quand vous quitterez cet hôtel vous serez triste de partir, ils vous donneront un petit sac avec des pâtisseries et des fruits. Je n’ai rien à dire sur cet hôtel tout ces passer parfaitement, le meilleur hôtel que j’ai pu faire sur l’île de zanzibar durant notre séjour de 3 semaines.

O hotel é incrível. São apenas 6 quartos então a atenção é totalmente voltada para estes poucos hóspedes. Um mordomo fica a sua disposição 24 horas. Eles pensam em tudo, simplesmente em tudo. Nunca fui tratado tão bem em um hotel. Pegamos o plano café e jantar. As refeições são fartas e é tudo muito romântico. Você pode ir caminhado ao famoso restaurante The Rock (10 minutos pela praia). Aconselho tbm pegarem o por do sol no Kae Beach, que fica cerca de 15 minutos de carro. Valeu a pena pagar mais caro por um hotel e ter tratamento de rei.

Außergewöhnliches Hotel. Personal immer aufmerksam, aber nie aufdringlich. Ausgezeichnetes Essen. Ruhige Lage am Traumstrand. Home away from home!

A beautiful small resort with just 6 rooms in two separate buildings. Very attentive and friendly staff. Lovely pool. Beautiful gardens. Long white sand beach right in front of the rooms is perfect for walks and swimming (with sea shoes, and somewhat tide dependent).

MY WIFE AND I STAYED FOR ONLY THREE NIGHTS (WISH IT HAD BEEN LONGER!) AFTER A LENGTHY STAY ON THE MAINLAND AT VARIOUS SAFARI CAMPS. OUR WONDERFUL HOLIDAY ON ZANZIBAR, ESPECIALLY AT THE BOUTIQUE HOTEL MATLAI, WAS A PERFECT AND RELAXING ENDING TO A MEMORBLE VACATION. WE VISTED THE SPA AND WERE SO GLAD WE DID. THE STAFF WERE VERY FRIENDLY, THE FOOD QUITE GOOD, AND THE VIEWS WERE SPECTACULAR OF THE INDIAN OCEAN. WE DID VISIT THE JOVANI FOREST TO SEE THE RED COLOBUS MONKEYS (GO EARLY!) AND WE HAD LUNCH AT THE ROCK RESTAURANT RIGHT DOWN THE BEACH. IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ALSO! WE STAYED IN THE MOON SUITE AT THE VILLA KIDOSHO SIDE OF THE RESORT.

We recently spent two magnificent weeks at the Boutique Hotel Matlai. In a nutshell this an oasis that provides for your all your holiday needs on immaculate grounds with exceptional staff. If you’re looking for that personal touch, then Matlai is it. What makes this hotel unique is its size. There are a total of 6 rooms spread over two ‘homes’ (4 rooms in the palapa-styled home, and 2 rooms in the white-house) on the grounds and a whole team dedicated to ensuring your stay (without being obtrusive) is the best possible. The rooms are all well appointed with plenty of space for your belongings, each room having a beautiful view of the Indian Ocean. What really sets this hotel apart is the staff and level of attentiveness to your every need. The staff were superlative - Ramadan, Martin, Derrick, Gideon, Tatu, Mariam, Anna, Asi, Emmanuel, and the front-desk staff all provided personal touches – such as fixing a broken mask of mine, preparing the meals a specific way, ensuring our health was okay (got sick from diving too deep), etc. It is this level of service you wouldn’t find at a regular hotel that really made this place stand-out. They honestly made us feel like we were family, they were all so warm and welcoming. The grounds of the hotel are immaculate, with lush gardens throughout. Two infinity-style pools provide stunning views out across the Indian Ocean. The hotel provides delicious meals – breakfasts can be ordered in your room or front balcony (ordered however you like and whatever you like). Dinners can be had anywhere on the grounds of the hotel – they were varied – with no same meal had in the two weeks we were there. The hotel can provide personalized tours through a 3rd party – Chiddy Tours. I highly recommend working with the hotel for any tour. Chiddy’s tours were personal down to just us as a couple so we could do anything we wanted and spend as much time on things as we desired. It wasn’t like being packed on a bus like a sardine with 100 other folks. Chiddy Tours worked with what you wanted to do/see and tailored the tours accordingly. In addition, the hotel has on-ground massage/spa services which were very good, especially after or prior to the long journey home Mariam and her team do an outstanding job of ensuring you’re comfortable and relaxed. If anyone is an avid swimmer/snorkeler – about a mile out (1.6km) are outstanding reefs/fish. Go at high-tide (you definitely need fins as it is a long slog) straight out from the hotel, past the sand-bank you see at low-tide another 400-600 metres straight out (before the waves), you’ll find a plethora of reef with outstanding tropical fish. The water (even at high tide) is never particularly deep (no more than 5 metres at the deepest). We found the reef here to be even better than at Mnemba Atoll, mind you, at Mnemba the boats take you instead of the long swim
