This exceeded my expectations. Great location, privacy, good water activites and locations, some special features, like how it moulds with its environment, beach, trees, make this a place with meaning and soul...food was good..Would definately go again, and again...that kind of place.. More

We splashed out a bit here for 2 nights. Got one of the villas. Lots of privacy and very romantic. Doors open right onto the beach. Each room has a hammock, the villas a roof top terrace. Out door shower and opening to the sea bath tub a nice touch. Food was amazing! Lots of little areas on the property... More

When threatened with rain on the east coast of the island, we made a last minutes switch of hotels and Fumba Beach Lodge offered us a reduced rate for the 2 nights we stayed, which was great because the regular rate was more than we were willing to pay. A great deal, we thought. The welcome and introduction to the... More

A highly recommended place. We loved the fact that it was in a protected area, very quiet, and the staff were very helpful and friendly. I live in Kenya and have been to lots of nice places there too, but nothing can rival Fumba Beach Lodge. I also proposed to my fiancée on that same beach and the staff help... More

Was there for 3 nights after climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro so quiet and relaxation was greatly needed and in place. The setting is lovely and you see lots of birds, monkeys, squirrels roaming around Its far from Stone village, its a 30mns drive and 45USD to get to the Village hence a drag to leave. It does need updating especially with... More

We stayed at Fumba Beach for 3 nights having safaried in Tanzania. It was chosen because it was not far from the airport allowing us maximum time to relax and enjoy the beach. The setting is lovely and we enjoyed our snorkelling day - however it was generally felt that Fumba Beach lacked investment and updating. We had two rooms... More

Fumba is a very nice resort, and perfect for relaxing. We only left the resort once to visit a spice farm - which I would recommend if you like food, plants etc. I'm sure there is more to do with snorkelling and so on but after a hectic safari before we arrived we were happy to sit by the pool...

We travelled to Zanzibar at the end of a brilliant safari trip put together for us by the excellent company Imagine Africa. Fumba Beach Lodge was just perfect in every way and a lovely way to finish a holiday. Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. More

Absolute pleasure staying at Fumba Beach Lodge!! The staff are very friendly, though their English is a bit 'rusty'.. They all come from the village close by so I suppose that is understandable.. Still I respect Fumba for employing these people and giving them a chance to work. The food was great! A huge spread in the mornings for breakfast,... More
