This place offers a practical, nicely styled room with a private bathroom and walk-in shower, as well as lovely views over the garden.

The breakfast is delicious and great with fantastic coffee and fruits, as for instance, has everything you need.

Booked a queen room with Wi-Fi and cell. The staff were super friendly throughout our stay. The location was amazing, near to Dar Es Salaam and mainland safaris as well as other beaches. It also was right on the beach.

The breakfast here is awesome! They serve delicious fruit and the coffee is fantastic. It's got everything you need to start your day right ☕.

Small fishing village hotel with 6 rooms. Ocean view from room 1. Equipped with shower, fan, closet, and comfortable bed. Delicious breakfast, customizable, with fruit. Romantic dinner option. Plenty of relaxation space with loungers, hammocks, and sofas. Good beach, only swim at high tide. Kind and helpful hostess creates cozy atmosphere.

This place is conveniently located near beautiful, secluded beaches, the ocean, and Zanzibar-Kizimkazi, making it a wonderful spot to enjoy.

the location is stunning with beautiful views of the ocean and the sunset and a beautiful white beach where you can walk and look at all the different shells. We spent a lot of time swimming and there are also some nice things to see when you snorkel. Our room was super comfortable and, like the rest of the hotel, stylishly furnished. So many cool features of upcycled furniture and decorations. the place feels very peaceful and quiet, just exactly what we needed after the otherwise quite busy places we visited. Great food too! We will definitely be back and I can recommend Mama Root to anyone who is looking for tranquility and beauty. Mama and Baba Root were lovely hosts, thank you so much.

Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes. 👍.

The room was comfortable and the staff were extremely friendly, making sure I was well taken care of during my stay.

The room I stayed in at Mama Root was absolutely delightful. It had a private bathroom with a refreshing shower and complimentary toiletries. The best part was the breathtaking sea view, which added an extra touch of magic to my stay. I also loved the cozy seating area, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surroundings.

Personally, I found the seating area a bit small, but that's just my preference. Others might still find it enjoyable.

The hosts, Olivia and Zuberi, are attentive and make you feel at home. They arrange everything you need and provide amazing local dishes. the view is stunning and the attention to detail in the rooms and on the tables is impressive. the food, both breakfast and dinner, is tasty and made with love. Don't miss out on Kizimkazi and mama root!

Felt like our own home, nothing was too much trouble.

I truly enjoyed my stay at Mama Root. The owners put so much love into everything they do, providing an outstanding service and high attention to detail. The breakfast was amazing and the lunch and dinner options were delicious. The atmosphere was magical, and the tranquil location right on the beach made it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. The view and beach were breathtaking, and I loved falling asleep to the sound of the ocean every night. The staff was lovely and the focus on recycling and upcycling was impressive. I highly recommend this hotel for a peaceful and meditative getaway. I'll definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a unique and relaxing experience.

Had the most amazing Christmas at this beachfront hotel! The rooms were beautifully designed and always spotlessly clean. Loved the cozy atmosphere created by the mood lighting. The host was super friendly and made us feel at home right away. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the vegan options. The hotel is located in a tranquil spot, perfect for relaxation. We enjoyed watching the fishermen and the stunning views of the town. The daily campfire in the garden added a special touch to our evenings. a memorable and enjoyable stay.

The only downside was that the hotel doesn't serve lunch, so we had to venture into the village or find another hotel for a midday meal. However, this was a minor inconvenience and didn't significantly affect our overall experience at the hotel.

Mama Root exceeded our expectations! Warm and welcoming hosts, peaceful location, delicious food, reasonable tour prices, best breakfast in Zanzibar, and adorable dogs. A perfect spot to relax off the beaten track.

Nothing at all.

Mama Root provided excellent value for money with a comfortable and stylishly furnished room. The location was stunning and peaceful, with beautiful ocean views and a pristine white beach. The staff, particularly Olivia, were friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay special.

Menu for breakfast could use a bit more variety to offer more options to guests.
