If you want to get away from the more touristy side of Zanzibar and simply enjoy nature, peace and beautiful surroundings, this is the perfect place to come! 🌴
The staff are absolutely lovely, helpful and welcoming, the food is amazing, and the villas and the views are just insane. Everything about this place makes you slow down, relax and enjoy the moment.
For us, it was the perfect break we needed in between our travels. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to recharge and enjoy the beauty of Zanzibar. Would 100% recommend! ❤️

Best stay on the island -a must to experience!
Amazing stay. Beautiful establishment on top od the hill sourranded by forest full of monkeys. Beautiful cottege, amazing shower, terrace with table, chairs and bed to relax, watch wildlife and sunrise/sunset.... Beautiful restaurant, wonderful views, great food, admiring bush babies while having a dinner.
This was the best stay on the island! Because it was special and different to other establisments in the best possible way.
Very close to get to the local beach. My son did not want to leave, especially because of the local "semi-wild" monkey JoJo.
Wonderful, kind staff working there. Suzi is amazing.
It is costly compared to other places we have been, but understandable considering it is built on top of the hill so they must have had to invest more to do it properly!
Still I would recommend to stay at least 2 days to have a special experience this place offers! You won't regret it!!!!!

Quiet, relaxing original Zansibar vibe
The secluded and quiet area away from the main resort areas made it seem like one is in the real Zansibar, with original vegetation, forest and village life on your doorstep. The lodge has beautiful views out over the Baobab trees to the ocean with lots of birds and monkey viewing, and also a short walk to the local villages and the beautiful Mtende beach.
It was perfect

Luxurious Treehouse
I love this place as it sits on top of a mountain and once you’re inside your room, it feels like you’re in a luxurious treehouse. The views are amazing and the sunrise was great to wake up to and witness. I was looking for a calm and serene place in nature to end my 3 week long trip around Zanzibar and this place was exactly what I was looking for. The staff helped me with my backpack up and down the stairs, and greeted me with a nice fruit drink. The host was endearing, funny, easy-going and very generous, letting me stay beyond checkout time. He offered me tea in the morning and great conversations. Breakfast was delicious consisting of eggs done your way, toast, pancakes, Nutella, peanut butter, fruit, tea, and a fruit drink. Being up in the mountain, there’s a wonderful breeze present throughout the day. Reading a book in this setting was ideal. For dinner I ordered the grilled calamari and pumpkin purée which was phenomenal! Kudos to the chef! Also, the host informed me of the electricity outage notification that he received and provided me with an emergency light and his personal hotspot and I saw several lanterns lit as backup. Luckily, the outage never occurred but I was highly impressed by the host’s proactive approach to making me feel prepared and comfortable, reducing any inconveniences that may occur. Other places I’ve stayed at just expected the guests to deal with the outage. You’re also in for a treat if you love monkeys as they will come right up to you.

Difficile sintetizzare cosa ci è piaciuto: il Monkey Mountain Lodge è stata la più bella e autentica struttura in cui abbiamo soggiornato a Zanzibar. La camera con vista sugli alberi di baobab con le scimmie che all'alba si arrampicavano è stato indubbiamente ciò che più ci è rimasto nel cuore. Un luogo autentico e incontaminato.
La colazione e tutti i pasti che abbiamo potuto gustare erano tutti molto buoni, realizzati con materie prime di qualità e con una grande cura al dettaglio.
La camera arredata con estremo gusto, materiali e arredi in linea con il contesto e un affaccio sul bosco meraviglioso. Soggiornare in una camera completamente in mezzo alla natura ci ha fatto riconnettere con il silenzio, con i soli rumori degli animali intorno.. è stato come immergersi nella foresta e vivere ammirando ciò che la anima.
Il personale della struttura gentile, disponibile, sempre attento!
Assolutamente nulla.
Questo luogo deve rimanere così, è assolutamente unico nel suo genere.

Nous avons passé 5 nuits de rêve dans un endroit où tout est parfait .
Que ce soit la qualité des équipements, de la qualité des repas , l’emplacement du lieu qui est perché au milieu de nulle part mais aussi la gentillesse du personnel !!
Une mention spéciale pour japheth qui a rendu notre séjour incroyable par sa gentillesse et ses attentions :)
Les coupures de courant presque tout les soirs ce qui engendrait une perte de débit pour la douche
