Ecotourism complex consisting of restaurant, kitchen, reception hall, comfortable bungalows and natural materials.

The main building, which includes a restaurant, kitchen and reception room, is an old English colonial house. The seven bungalows on the island are built of natural materials and are very comfortable. Walls, floors and roofs are made of wood and leaves. This ecotourism complex is totally ecological: solar electricity, compost toilets, recycled and reused rainwater, use of biodegradable soaps, filtration of wastewater by plants.

Our stay at Chumbe Island was amazing! This place is magical, exclusive. It’s the luxury of simplicity, of being in deep contact with nature. There are stunning views no matter where you look. The staff is so nice, helpful and sweet (many thanks to Vera, the charming manager who took really good care of us). They always have big smiles on their faces :) The food is delicious and very healthy. It’s amazing to diner under the starts. There is unlimited water, tea and coffee all day. The bungalows are charming, simple but comfortable. Beach beds on the shade to relax. The snorkeling is great, excellent visibility and rich marine life (we saw sting rays, octopus, sharks, dolphins and a multitude of colorful fish and corals).
We spent three nights, which was a perfect timing (we could have stayed a week longer without getting bored).
Everything is ecological, sustainable. Solar electricity, water collected from rain, and dry compostable toilets.
The hotel is a non-profitable organization which helps to protect the island and invests in education. So even more reasons to go!
We can’t wait to go back!

Schöner Ort, um mal ein paar Stunden zu entspannen. Zu teuer. Preisleistung bewerten wir als unverhältnismäßig.

We had a great time in Chumbe and would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something a little less conventional.
It met our expectations and was exactly what we had hoped for!

As the island is very small there really isn't much to do outside of Snorkeling and a relatively brief walk in the forest or on the other end of the island beach during low tide but that is why it's such a great place to really disconnect, relax and get in touch with the surrounding nature and appreciate the simple things. On our first day there, we were lucky enough to see one of the most beautiful sunsets we've seen.

The bungalows are super authentic and adequately equipped and they are cleaned every day.
As far as the food, the 3 meals per day included the full board package were truly amazing. The food was healthy, simple yet delicious – without a doubt the best food we had during our 10 days stay around Zanzibar (Stone Town, Jambiani/Paje, Mbweni).

The staff is truly lovely, very professional, and always available.
