"We will be back!" – The four most beautiful words a hotel can hear. 😍

We recently received a wonderful review from guests who stayed with us for the second time. Here is what they loved most about their Matlai experience:
✅ The absolute peace on our secluded beach (no "sunbed wars" here!).
✅ The luxury of a private pool dip, even late at night.
✅ Our daily changing menu and the option to order your favorites.
✅ The authentic local decor and choosing your own room fragrance.

Pro-tip from our guests: Just like everywhere in Zanzibar, don't forget your reef shoes for the coral and some mosquito spray – then you’re all set for the perfect island escape! 🐚🦟

Ready to let your soul dangle? We’re waiting for you!

March at Boutique Hotel Matlai 🌊✨

This is Zanzibar at its most beautiful.
Warm ocean breeze, calm turquoise water, soft white sand and endless quiet moments — just you and the sound of the Indian Ocean.

March is one of the best times to experience Boutique Hotel Matlai. The weather is still perfect, the beaches feel almost private, and the island slows down into a peaceful rhythm. Slow mornings by the Asili House pool, long beach walks with no crowds, and relaxed days that turn into unforgettable sunsets.
If you are looking for a place to truly switch off, breathe deeply and enjoy the simple luxury of space, nature and privacy — this is your moment.

🌙 Ramadan Kareem from Zanzibar 🌴

In some countries Ramadan began yesterday, and here in Zanzibar the majority started fasting today. We would like to wish everyone observing this holy month a peaceful and blessed Ramadan.

Ramadan is a very special time on the island. The atmosphere becomes calmer, more reflective, and beautifully serene. For visitors, it can actually be one of the most wonderful times to experience Zanzibar.

✨ Why visit during Ramadan?
• Quieter beaches and peaceful surroundings
• A slower, more authentic island rhythm
• Stunning sunsets and a unique evening atmosphere

On the beaches, daily life continues much as usual for tourists. Hotels and resorts operate normally, and you can fully enjoy the ocean, sunshine, and relaxation.

In Stone Town, some local cafés and restaurants (especially those not located inside hotels) may remain closed during the daytime and reopen after sunset. Evenings, however, become lively and special as families gather to break the fast.

At Boutique Hotel Matlai, we welcome guests throughout this beautiful month and are happy to share the peaceful side of the island with you.

🌙 Ramadan Kareem to everyone celebrating.

To stay in Zanzibar is to dance with the tides. 🌊✨
At , we believe the true beauty of your journey lies just beyond the doorstep. It’s in the golden warmth of a Stone Town sunset, the wisdom in the eyes of a century-old tortoise, and the joyful splash of children jumping into the Indian Ocean.
Zanzibar is more than an island; it’s a feeling of peace, a heritage carved into wooden doors, and a reminder to move at the speed of the sea. Come for the sun, but stay for the soul. 🐚🌿
