Chumbe Island Coral Park

Mbweni

Chumbe Island is a fully protected private island, off the coast of Zanzibar, home to a stunning Coral Reef Sanctuary and Forest Reserve that is entirely funded through ecotourism revenue.

This is an exceptional place-- like they say, it's the closest you can come to living like a castaway while still maintaining comfort. Imagine an island as mysterious as the Galapagos, but private! A true eco-lodge, you know when you're coming here you are protecting one of the most pristine marine environments in East Africa. Snorkeling here is among the best in the world, because the coral formations are healthy and spectacular. Swam with black tip reef sharks between purple, blue, and yellow coral heads big as houses. At night, the forest walk among the giant coconut crabs is as surreal as anything in Life of Pi! It's the perfect complement to a high end safari in one of the Maasai conservancies. The staff are also exceptional, especially the island manager Vera.

What an absolute gorgeous gem of a hotel in Stone Town. Truly authentic building and decor and incredible bedrooms. I stayed in the ‘Kate’ room which was utterly delightful. Beautiful private terrace overlooking the town, enormous bedroom (beautifully decorated) and an open-air bathtub adjoining. Super private. Gorgeous to wake up in the morning and open the doors and feel the breeze filter through. Beautiful bed linen and towels (woven locally) and handmade soaps. If you are into aesthetics, then this is the place for you. I can’t say enough to rate the hotel. All the staff were absolutely delightful and super attentive (as a single female traveller it was very much appreciated). The Manager was extremely kind and friendly. Also organised a fantastic private tour of the town for me which was brilliant. The rooftop restaurant is to die for. The best, authentic and freshest of food I have ever eaten.The taster plate experience with sunset and cocktails was dreamy. Amazing views and ambiance. Didn’t want it to end! The Secret Garden restaurant is also absolutely worth a visit. I attended on a Friday evening when there was live music being performed. Truly magical. Again, the food was just amazing and the staff all super kind.

This is the second time we have stayed at this hostel. Everything is great, interior, comfortable, great breakfast, good staff. At night we urgently needed to go to the hospital, the manager very quickly helped us with a taxi. We had an early departure, they prepared a takeaway breakfast for us, thank you very much.

    I stayed 4 nights with my 11 year old son on Chumbe island.

    I stayed 4 nights with my 11 year old son on Chumbe island. It was great to have time to feel at home and explore. Many visitors come just for the day and miss out on the lovely candle lit dinners on the sand, the crab walks and the overall relaxed atmosphere Great snorkelling each day. Fantastic experience

    This was a great introduction to the life in the islands.

    This was a great introduction to the life in the islands. We enjoyed snorkeling very much with a knowledgeable and safe guided private experience. The food was good and served in unique places each meal. My 14-year old and I made great memories together here that will last a lifetime!
