The perfect place to stay on Mafia Island

PEACEFULL AND COZY PLACE – Great location by the beach. Unbeatable place if you want to disconnect. Cosy bangalow with great vief of the seabay.
Herbie, their cheffrom Namibia, makes the stay even more… Read more.. enjoyable with his creative and tasty cuisine. Good diving center with well maintained equipment. Just need to offer more challengingdiving sites for advanced divers. Anyways, Gidion, the Divemaste, makes the dives enjoyable because of his local knowledge and his readiness. Do not miss the whaleshark excursion, which is still a unique destination because of surpriselingly uncrowded. I forgot tomention the god spa facilities thanks to OY from Thailand, very competent and very kindfull. Definately, Kinasi resort offers a great option for nature lovers.

We will be back 🙂 – Hello out there!
My daughter and I returned from Tanzania yesterday and had a perfect mix of safari and diving/relaxation with Peter at his Kinasi Lodge.
I just have to… Read more.. praise Peter! He’s the brilliant old-school gentleman who makes you feel at home from the moment you walk in. It didn’t take 3 minutes and he introduced us to all the other guests, who were all great.
If there are negative reviews complaining about the food, I would suggest that you have to keep in mind that we are on a small African island with 15 beautiful bungalows and not in a 1000 bed all inclusive bunker in Hurgadha , where the buffet overflows every day.
We were very enthusiastic about the atmosphere, the great diving spots and the landscape.
Many thanks to Peter and his team!

We stayed for 5 nights after safari to dive on Mafia. The hotel was lovely in a great location and with very comfortable, large bungalows with lovely views from the… Read more.. balconies. Food was good – no choice on the dinner menu but diets were catered for. The hotel was exactly what we wanted with a personal service from friendly staff, laid back vibe and beautiful location. We loved the massages nearly as much the cocktails. The view was spectacular. Some rooms have aircon and others have fans so, if you have a preference, it’s worth checking. Good excursions but better information would have been helpful at times. One downside was the metal roof for each bungalow which made the falling seed pods etc at night very noisy. However, we weren’t ready to leave and would have loved to has stayed longer.

Beautiful Lodge in perfect surrounding – I just came back from a wonderfully relaxing stay at Kinasi Lodge.
The staff is excellent, so welcoming and kind and always there to help and assist you with… Read more.. any request. I felt absolutely at home.

The rooms and the entire lodge are beautifully designed and always clean and you‘ll get some of the best food.

Kinasi Lodge offers many intersting excursions so that your stay on Mafia Island becomes unique.

I will definitely come back
