A wonderful eco resort! Cute bungalow's with compost toilets. We slept with all the windows and doors open to enjoy the ocean breeze. staff and food fantastic. Good snorkelling. Coconut crab night walk was fascinating. We climbed up the lighthouse and walked around the island on low tide - saw heaps of starfish and crabs! We also relaxed in the swinging day beds and read our books. 4 nights was a lovely amount of time if you can…but lots just came for 1 night.

Absolutely worth it

This place doesn't even feel real. Raw, untouched, pristine nature. The Chumbe Island team have done a wonderful job with the hotel. It's an incredible experience to go to this place. I was having second thoughts about our booking since the price was out of our usual travel budget. But we decided to give it a go and I'm so happy we did. Our day at Chumbe was the highlight of our stay in Zanzibar and most likely of our Tanzania trip. As a heads up, Hotels.com doesn't clearly state the amount of local taxes you have to pay per person upon arrival. It's 35 USD per person per night on top of the Hotels.com rate.

What an incredible experience! We stayed three nights and enjoyed each moment. For sure a trip worth. Boat transfer: it might be a little bumpy, on the way to the island it was bumpy but on the way back absolutly not. Food: Lunch and Dinner: the best food we had in our trip, very tasteful and delicious! Everyday there was something different and local, we loved it. Breakfast was also nice. There was an amazing Ginger and Lemongrass tea available all day. Bungalow: everything is natural, it was a good experience and it fits their concept. There was enough space and the bed was on the second floor. There is only rainwater and a compostable toilet which was fine, only negative point was that the toilet was not clean, we cleaned it ourselves. The bed sheet had holes and spots, the mattress was too hard, pillow was not comfortable, even if we were not looking for luxus. Snorkeling: Awesome, unforgetable! We have been 4 times to Maldives, comparing both, here the corals were healthy, almost intakt, some huge, colored, many different kinds. They do not have many fish. Corals are the spot. Snorkeling is only possible one time day, with the guide, the spot is far away and need to be reached by boat. Beach: it is not possible to swim, you can enter the water to get a refresh but there are a lot of stones or corals substract. There are low and high tides. People: All employees were friendly and helpful, special thank you to Magreth from Snorkeling and Cooking Chef John King.

Meget mere end en overnatning ❤️

Fantastisk oplevelse ikke bare en overnatning ! Der blev taget hånd om os fra starten med planlagte ture så vi kunne få mest ud af øen og naturen, maden var så god og serveret i de flotteste omgivelser . Hytten var over forventning på en isoleret ø. Personalet var imødekommende , venlige og skønne. Både snorkel tur og aften krabbe gåtur var fantastiske oplevelser

A wonderfully memorable stay

What a special place; my only regret is that I spent only one night here. Super cool eco bungalows, fantastic snorkeling, great meals… all supported by wonderful, caring staff. Thanks Moritz. Capo and all!

Amazing place - so unique! We were lucky enough to be the only guests that night so we had our own private island! Loved the snorkelling, seeing the coconut crabs and the food was incredible. The perfect return to nature getaway

Fantastisk dyreliv under vand

Helt fantastisk oplevelse med det flotteste dyreliv under vand. Vi så skildpadder, hajer (ikke farlige), mange store fisk, hummere og meget andet liv i havet. Maden var god og dagsprogrammet var godt planlagt. Det bæredygtige koncept på øen er exceptionelt og medarbejderne var flinke.

Wer Ruhe und Kontakt zur Natur an einem traumhaften Strand mit täglichen Schnorchelausflügen zum Korallenriff (vom Strand aus per Schwimmen in 10 Minuten erreichbar oder mit dem Boot zur fixen Zeit ) sucht, ist hier richtig.Dass ecolodge-Hütten nicht das Hilton sind, sollte jedem klar sein, der hierher kommt - es ist aber Alles vorhanden, was man gemeinhin unter den Errungenschaften der Zivilisation versteht - ob sie denn sinnvoll sind oder auch nicht. Die Freundlichkeit des Personals und die Zuvorkommenheit haben wir als erfahrene Reisende in ferne Länder selten so positiv empfunden. Das Essen kann locker mit manchem Sternerestaurant mithalten, auch wenn die Präsentation ohne diverse Showeffekte auskommt - die Qualität jedoch lunch und dinner zu einer Genießerstunde werden lassen. Absolut empfehlenswert, auch wenn der Preis etwas außergewöhnlich erscheint - er ist absolut berechtigt.

Environmental project

The island provides an eco trip on a deserted island, staying in an eco lodge. The trip includes snorkelling on the protected reef , a forest walk and night viewing of coconut crabs

The island is beautiful and secluded with a sandy beach and amazing natural surroundings. The cabins are beautifully designed to compliment the natural setting, taking advantage of cool cross breezes and incorporating solar power and hot water. The staff was also phenomenal, as was the food. My friend and I had one perfect night on Chumbe and came back refreshed and relaxed.

Amazing place - but bring bug spray!

Absolutely loved this place and my time on the island. The food and service were incredible, and the coconut crabs were insane. Only issue was our mosquito net had some holes in it and didn't close well, leading to a poor night of sleep and lots of bites.
