Located in a quiet area next to the beach this small place to stay is a hidden gem. Each room is its own little bungalow, with high ceilings, AC and fan, big glass doors and a covered verandah looking over the sea, and good quality bathroom with plenty of hot water for shower. Beautifully maintained flower-edged sandy paths leading to the central restaurant/bar area with nearby places to lie on sheltered swinging beds and the beach. Simple yet filling breakfast consisting of served fruit, juice, eggs, toast and pancake. Lunch and dinner could be ordered with choice of fresh grilled seafood, chicken, beef, with salad/vegetables and small fruit-based desert. The grilled fish was excellent, but not always available depending on the local catches of the day. Friendly and helpful staff with many interesting activities to do when not relaxing! Organised reef snorkeling, BBQ lunch on a sandbar, and whale sharks.

The hole of the place. The feeling of being welcome and not as a turist, but as a human. Mussa is the carrier of the place, his way to run this place is so responsible for Natur and respectful to his staff, it all shows. This is the best holiday we ever had, and i give it my warmest recommendations. And I have been traveling to Tanzania for four years now.

KK is extremely tranquil and perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of anywhere else. The setting is so peaceful hidden under the high canopy of the tropical forest. The staff are amazing and so helpful with anything on the island. The food is tasty and great value. The area has no other tourists so very quiet. The outdoor showers with Kerosene heating is pretty cool too.

    Going to Mafia Island is like going back in the time.

    Going to Mafia Island is like going back in the time. Still underdeveloped with not too many locals handling foreign languages but nice people. A lot of chinese low key staff in the boutiques but sometimes quite pricey. Even the beer is cheaper in Europe ! Kilindoni is the main spot and if you don't find a certain thing here , you won't be able to find it on the other part of the island. Island still lacks promotion ( advertising ) and I was disappointed that I wasn't able to find those T shirts with Mafia logo or saying something about the island. I went there for diving - and it turned out to be the most expensive one I had in whole my life - so resume to whale shark watching.until the government change its mind and stops screwing tourists. ( I hope this will happen in the future ). Regarding the diving: I'm an instructor so can lay down a professional thought: good but not outstanding as they brag ... and not worth the money.
