Baleni
With Rufiji Mafia Kilwa Marine Reserve reachable in 6.8 km, Kitu Kiblu offers accommodation, a restaurant, a garden, a terrace and a bar.
Some units feature a seating area and/or a balcony.
A bicycle rental service is available at the lodge.
When looking for a genuine, immersive and take it is experience Kitu Kiblu is a great choice to take.
We spent a wonderful week there and are enthusiastic of all facilities and people; everything is exactly as described in the profile.
Accomodations could be choosene to be more discreet (on the trees) or more common and we strongly suggest the second option; apart from an incredible quality/price ratio the whole experience deserves to be done! We appreciated so much to have shower in the jungle surronded by palm leafs and accept a rope is the door for the toilet (yes, it's true and frankly speaking all is priceless!!!!).
All the description look a bit as only for brave and indeed this "return to the basic" is exaclty what I think it should be experienced to understand we don't need that much to feel happy, just go back to the essential and appreciate!!!
People have been very friendly and inclusive and did their best to let us feel welcomed and help for local activities.

Featuring free bikes and a garden, Meremeta Lodge is situated in Utende, less than 15 minutes cycle from Mafia Island Diving. Free WiFi is offered.
The lodge offers a terrace.
Mafia Island Marine Park, the largest and oldest in Tanzania is 6km from Meremeta Lodge..
Meremeta Lodge is a very beautiful place in the Western side of Utende. Wonderful rooms and a spectacular lobby/restaurant. The owner is almost always present and super friendly and supportive, as is the rest of the staff. Our room had an AC which was a blessing. Breakfast was self-service but super tasty. Generally, the food was really nice and varied. Well spiced. And super tasty desserts!
It is possible to borrow bicycles to get around, which is super helpful as this place is not located directly at the beach. However, you get there really quickly by bike, and the upside to the location is that it is rather quiet.
Place is located on the beach. Nice chilled atmosphere and very friendly staff. You can get all your meals through the lodge and they host multiple activities.
An amazing little island with outstanding tree house accommodation. Eco tourism at its finest. Plenty of activities to keep you entertained. Perfect for winding down after doing safari. Definitely worth a visit. The owner has done so much to help the locals which was lovely to see.
The staff are amazing. Abi is so helpful and kind. The Whale Shark activity was awesome and the Captain and Guide were respectful towards the Whale Sharks unlike the other boats around us. It was also cheaper than the other lodges. The room was spotless and comfortable. Spa treatment fantastic. Really super spot. Its the perfect place to book at the start of your Mafia holiday and then explore. Thank you Maisara:)
Beautiful lodge and incredible sweet and caring staff. They really made us feel at home. The activities that the lodges offers are very well organised and super fun
Maisara Mafia Beach Lodge is an amazing up and coming piece of paradise!!! The new rooms are very large with all the mod cons you need!!! The staff are very helpful and kind!! I would highly recommend the tours offered, we did 4 different excursions which was a big highlight of our stay! I would highly recommend Maisara Mafia Beach Lodge for your stay on Mafia Island!!!
Very nice area with lots of beautiful flowers, very clean and nice rooms and very friendly and engaged people all around and great food and service. Meremeta is a really great host and organized everything perfectly for us and we had an awesome time at his place. Thanks again Meremeta & Team! We recommend the Meremeta Lodge 100% and we will stay here again if we come back to Mafia Island. Greetings from Germany.
Everything was perfect. Hassan took care very quickly of everything: whatever was needed. The food in the restaurant is very delicious and everything is very clean ( that is not common in some other places). If you want to spend your holiday as you wish and being on the beach the same time - Maisara Beach Lodge in Mafia is the right place. There is also a wonderful massage hut with an ocean view, where you can get a professional massage.
