Summary: I stayed one night at Mangrove Lodge and overall had a very nice experience. The property is a beautiful, secluded compound with a really peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The lodge itself is very nice and well-maintained. The staff were exceptionally nice and helpful. There are two things future guests should know: First, the road to the lodge is in terrible condition - because of it, it takes a full 15-20 minutes just to get to the compound from the main road. Be prepared for a very bumpy, slow drive. Second, my only complaint about the lodge itself was that there was a noticeable smell of cigarette smoke in the room. I believe they allow smoking in the rooms. Despite those two points, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend it if you're looking for a quiet, secluded getaway with great service.

Summary: Very friendly staff. This is perfect if you want to relax from the city sound and all impressions. Located 45 min from Stone Town. Very green, almost as you located in a forest. Bush babies you can frequently see early mornings and evenings. Outside shower for each house. Good breakfast, even better dinner, good value for money.

Summary: Please make sure you read fine prints with lodge. I was told one thing from staff about airport transportation then another via fine prints. Luckily I had a hired driver to accommodate to follow through with consistent services provided

Summary: Top notch, wonderful experience! Grounds are gorgeous and creative! Everyone there is helpful and friendly. Loved the room and the fact it had an outdoor shower! Food was delish and fresh. I could go on and on! My only complaint is that we couldn't stay longer!

Summary: The Lodge is wonderful in its own way. Not a beach resort, but a mangrove garden. Many fantastic flowers and great accommodations. The central reception/bar/restaurant was very fun and beautiful. The owner is friendly and full of great suggestions for activities. However the drive to the place was full of huge potholes whichb were often full of rainwater. I was honestly scared to get out of the taxi, when we arrived in the dark and there was not a well-lit or well- managed welcome area.

Summary: Very peaceful. Beautiful gardens and sunset from the beach bar area. Nice and spacious bungalows. Good food. Great hosts. Family run business in the middle of nature. Very good for relaxing. Nice chill area. Free and tasty tea and coffee throughout the day at the restaurant. Only downside were the many mosquitoes.

Summary: Everyone was very friendly. Very clean property. Only had an issue one day with the shower, no cold water.

Summary: Marina and Hajie are a pleasure to know. All the staff were most accommodating. This place is a little bit special, memorable, facinating and we are frequent travellers. Only problem for us was the condition of the appraoch road (not the lodges problem)which is diabolical in places. To be fair our driver did his best but my wife suffered a sudden drop in a deep pothole. Would seriously not recommend to any one with back or neck problems. This place is under renovation so can only get better but already a true gem.
