Positive: The place is green and unlike anywhere else I’ve been in Zanzibar — full of nature and peaceful energy. The local team is very caring and attentive. The breakfast… wow! Very close to the ocean. Highly recommended.
Summary: Amazing

Positive: Mawingu Lodge was a comfortable and quiet place to stay as a base for our local dives. The communication was excellent from my first enquiry, our transport from the airport was organised and assistance was offered for booking tours locally or elsewhere on Zanzibar. The staff were lovely, helpful and attentive, and any issues we had were dealt with promptly (no hot water initially but an electrician was called as soon as we notified them). Daily breakfast was delicious (those omelettes!), and it was just so peaceful, an utter delight. Bear in mind it is budget accommodation but if you're good with that, you can't go wrong with Mawingu.
Negative: I would like to have had local information in the room - whereabouts of local cafes, tours, etc but I guess that's what Google is for. There is a road running behind the lodge and the foot traffic into the night was sometimes noisy but it was not enough to be a real bother.
Summary: Very comfortable and relaxing in a beautiful setting.

Positive: I recommend. I love the place. I come back every year... and this time I went with the team on a big trip to Tanzania. The team is like family. The place is one of a kind. Different and pleasant. You feel like you are in a natural forest with butterflies. Pampering meals in the nature outside. Everything is good

Positive: When we arrived the team greet us nicely and we immediately felt like home. The place is full of green plantes with a natural big graden and a feeling of being in the forest.
