Mtoni Marine

Mtoni Marine is situated several kilometres outside Stone Town at Bububu, near the ruins of Mtoni Palace, the first palace of Sultan Seyyid Said.

The hotel has one of the finest restaurants on the island where guests can dine in true fusion style. The food is served at tables on the beach, so you can feast on delicious cuisine while sitting barefoot under the stars. Even if you don't decide to stay at the hotel, try to make a point of visiting this romantic restaurant.

A great new addition to the existing restaurants is the Sushi bar, serving fresh sushi daily.
Besides the Sushi bar, they have opened a tropical therapy centre, where they administer tropical aroma therapy. The friendly staff at Mtoni Marine are willing to offer advice about a variety of excursions. You can also go cruising around the islands on the hotel's new dhow, the ‘Spice Coast Dhow’. This comes at a fee though.

The Bububu area is of historical interest as you'll find the ruins of two Sultan palaces as well as some interesting Persian baths. The hotel offers a relaxed, laid-back place to escape the hustle and bustle of Stone Town. We only recommend you spend a night or two here if you plan to really experience Stone Town, which is a 6km taxi drive away.

Mtoni Marine is ideal as either a stop over if you don’t want to stay in Stone Town, or for 2-3 nights if you want to experience the culture of Stone Town, do not want the noise associated with the town, and would like good-looking views of the ocean and Chapwani Island. We would recommend you combine your stay at Mtoni Marine with a couple of nights elsewhere on the island.

Rooms: The rooms are located in lush tropical gardens and are all air-conditioned. They are divided into categories: Palm Court, Club Rooms and Bara Bara Rooms. The Palm Court Rooms are Mtoni Marine’s most luxurious rooms. They're situated in a double-storey block and have views of the sea - you can even see as far as Zanzibar's satellite islands of Chapwani, Changuu, Snake and Bawe. The rooms have tiled floors and private balconies or verandas. The four upstairs rooms have baths with a view, while the downstairs bathrooms have showers only. They are well situated and highly recommended if you are staying at the hotel. Their new Bara Bara Rooms have been designed in a true East meets West architectural style and overlook fragrant Frangipane trees. Six downstairs rooms and six upstairs rooms are available, all fully equipped with air conditioning, fans and en-suite bathrooms. The upstairs rooms have balconies designed for romantic sunset viewing, while the downstairs ones have a small ‘chill-out’ baraza. All the rooms are decorated with locally produced furniture and convey an authentic island feel. The Club Rooms are set in a block, and have verandas overlooking the garden.
