Wir waren ab 19.11.24 für 17 Nächte im Basecamp Mafia Island. Der perfekte Ort, um nach der Safari auszuspannen und sowohl die schöne Unterwasserwelt als auch die noch sehr ursprüngliche Insel zu erkunden. Mit unserem Standardzimmer mit Meerblick waren wir sehr zufrieden. Ebenso mit dem Reinigungs- und Wäscheservice. Die Lodge punktet mit guter Ausstattung und einem schönen Strand, an dem man auch bei Ebbe baden kann. Obwohl alle unsere Quartiere in Tansania sehr schön waren, fanden wir den durchweg hervorragenden und sehr freundlichen Service im Basecamp toll. Wir wurden täglich gefragt, was wir planen, ob wir Verpflegungsboxen benötigen, ob unser Zimmer in Ordnung ist. Um eine erkrankte Mitreisende wurde sich sehr besorgt gekümmert, damit Sie Essen und Getränke bekommt, die sie verträgt. Als wir einen Mittagssnack bestellt haben und eine Zutat fehlte (was auf einer Insel mal vorkommen kann), wurde das aus dem Nachbarort besorgt. Das fanden wir schon sehr besonders. Es gibt ein sehr gutes Frühstück und zum Lunch oder Dinner ein 3-Gänge-Menü mit 3 Optionen (Fisch, Fleisch, Vegetarisch). Kaffee, Tee und Wasser stehen in der Lobby kostenfrei zur Verfügung. Auf dem Zimmer gibt es Wasserflaschen, die jederzeit vom Bar- und Restaurantpersonal aufgefüllt werden. Ein schöner Pool ist vorhanden, der aufgrund des tollen Strandes mit Beachbar, kaum genutzt wird. Wir waren 10 Tage tauchen und haben 3 Ausflüge gemacht. Dazwischen konnten wir in der Lodge perfekt entspannen und das bunte Leben von Utende und der Nachbarinseln kennenlernen, da die Fähren am Strand anlegen. Da gibt es immer was zu gucken! Asante Sana, liebes Basecamp-Team! Wir hatten einen tollen Urlaub.

Met with a friendly greeting, and the friendliness continued. Relaxed and laid-back but with a choice of activities too. Or ijust sat and watched the world go by from the lovely restaurant and beach bar. Rooms were comfortable and recently refurbished to a high standard. The staff couldn't do enough for me. I loved it and highly recommend.

Myself a a friend spent three nights at Mafia Island Lodge, and loves our time there. The location is wonderful, with a view of palm trees down to the beach, and a 2 minute walk to Big Blu where all the excursions leave from. We stayed in the superior rooms which were comfortable, clean and light. Great airconditioning (essential in Mafia in Feb!) and a little private patio with views over the garden. The staff absolutely make this place. Iris the hotel manager is welcoming and warm, and all her staff, from the waiters to the Masai guards, are delightful and professional. Food was great, we went for the full board option. We especially appreciated our delicious packed lunches when out on excursions that were all in containers and with mental cutlery - no single use plastic or styrofoam, hooray! Looking forward to seeing the results of the renovations and hope to return again. Thank you, Asante Sana!

Комфортно, уютно, гостеприимная хозяйка. Вкусные завтраки, обеды и ужины. О вас заботятся. Если уходите раньше или позже подготавливают ланч боксы.возможные проблемы решаются быстро. Каждый вечер приходил заранее представитель дайвинг клуба подготовить заранее дайвинг программу на завтра и заказать транспорт если нужно.

Hotel in una posizione fastica dentro al parco marino . Iris non classificabile perché è il TOP cibo ottimo spiaggia veramente bella e isola magnifica. Se volete un po' di tranquillità lontano dal classico turismo di massa ve la consiglio.
