Einen beeindruckender Ort Und ein gutes Beispiel, das nachhaltiger Tourismus eben doch möglich ist. Luxus sucht man hier nicht, sondern die exklusive Möglichkeit mitten in der Natur zu sein und dem Ozean so nah. Danke für dieses Einmalige Erlebnis

Living like Robinson Caruso for a few days on a private island was magical. This small island has so much diversity and is extra special due to the limited number of guests. It’s peaceful, the food is wonderful, the snorkel is amazing and the experience was out of this world. 2 nights was perfect.

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.

Great experience! Staff is friendly and very helpful. We enjoyed our day trip to the island Including some great snorkeling, delicious food and chilling on the beach.

I would definitely recommend. The nature is so pretty, corals are amazing and you get to see some nice colourful fish, crabs and we were lucky seeing sharks and snakes.

Thank you again for a great experience!

Nous étions en couple et l'expérience a été fantastique. L'arrivée se fait par bateau depuis Jungle Paradise Hotel. Une solide impression de se rendre dans un endroit protégé s'installe rapidement. La traversée prend une vingtaine de minutes. Nous étions seuls ce jour là à embarquer. Sur l'île, l'accueil est chaleureux et on comprend vite que les gens sont là pour vous faire partager le lieu et leur expérience. Chumbe reste avant tout un endroit de préservation maritime et d'éducation pour les classes et les élèves de Zanzibar. Entre luxe des installations, détente pour ceux qui le veulent, et activités marines et terrestres, je trouve que l'équilibre est juste. Le personnel est présent sans en faire trop. Un grand merci à toute l'équipe. Vera, Chagga et tout les équipes de restauration et d'animation.

Definitely worth staying at least one night. The island is completely isolated and clean. Only a few people that you will get to know during the day will be staying with you - enjoy peace and silence in the beautiful nature. Staff is helpful and flexible to your requests.

Magnifique île Robinson Crusoe vierge de civilisation. Un unique hôtel eco lodge avec 7 bungalows. La vue sur mer est uniquement du lit. Le resto est plutôt correct avec un soin apporté par le chef sui d’ailleurs se réjouie lorsqu’on le complimente ( qui ne le serait pas ? ) mais la proposition ( unique pour le dîner ) reste néanmoins simple. L’accueil est extrêmement prévenant et les acteurs des activités proposées ( snorkeling, découverte de la forêt, et ballade nocturne pour voir les extraordinaires « crabes coconut » sont pro et engagées pour la conservation de la nature. Bref un stop assez idyllique, loin du tourisme bling-bling de la cote. Seul bémol le prix qui ne correspond pas au niveau des prestations, les chambres sont sommaires, matelas pas très confort, lieu de la restauration rustique. ( le prix de la traversée n’est d’ailleurs pas comprise pour aller sur l’île ce qui ajoute encore au prix du séjour). Tout ça mériterait un prix divisé par deux. On aurait adoré rester plus mais le prix nous a malheureusement arrêté.

Chumbe Island eco lodge est un ensemble de 7 bungalows ecologiques ( eau de pluie stockée , electricité solaire , toilettes seches ...) répartis sur une plage de Chume Island . Ce sont les seuls et uniques logement possible sur l'ile . Vous aurez l'impression d'être au bout du monde entouré par la barrière de corail et les poissons multicolores . Vous vous endormirez en écoutant le bruit des vagues. La restauration est absolument delicieuse avec les produits locaux et bien évidemment les produits de la mer .
