Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: We had an incredible stay at this lodge, and a big part of that was thanks to the amazing owner. He is truly one of the kindest and most helpful hosts we’ve ever met. When the airline failed to deliver our bags, he personally took charge—calling every day, staying in touch with the airline, and doing everything he could to make sure we got our luggage back. We felt so supported and cared for. He also organized all of our activities, and they were fantastic: turtle hatching, a trip to the mange sandbank with a beach BBQ and snorkeling, a visit to the north of the island, Chole Island snorkling trips and whale shark watching. Everything was smooth, well-planned, and stress-free thanks to him. The lodge isn’t right on the beach, but the owner provides bikes for free, and with them it’s a quick and easy ride to the shore. The rooms are comfortable and air-conditioned! Dinner at the lodge is optional each day, and it’s a full three-course meal (starter, main, dessert) for just $15. The portions are generous and the food was consistently delicious. Overall, the atmosphere was welcoming, relaxed, and safe. We truly felt at home here and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Very affordable snorkelling excursions and great whale shark watching. Rooms are clean, well maintained. Lovely garden. Good wifi. Decent meals for a reasonable price.
Negative: Please be aware there is no swimming pool (yet), but as diving/snorkelling is a main activity I did not miss it.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Spacious and very clean room with fans and air conditioning. Power-bar in room very helpful for charging. Couches and hammock outside of room and large shared seating areas. Breakfast and dinner were good, plus accommodation of special dietary requests at dinner and breakfast. Free water/coffee/tea all day Location is a bit far from everything, but owner helped with transportation even very early in the morning.
Negative: Lingering sewage smell in bathroom. Lack of chairs in the bedroom.
Summary: Great base for diving and relaxing on Mafia Island

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Meremeta lodge Meremeta Lodge was great. The rooms were clean, cool from AC, and the water hot! Most of all the staff was incredible. They take pride in ensuring that the food is delicious and the experience is exceptional. They arranged daily transport to the dive shop, tours to other areas of the island. When I didn’t prefer the meat as the main dish the cooked chicken instead. I asked if they served it on the island as I had a suspicion they didn’t. As a result, they had plenty of Coke Zero purchased ahead time for me I highly recommend Meremeta Lodge and if I return, I will definitely be staying with them.
Negative: Would like to have had western alcohol at the ‘bar’
Summary: Great location and friendly staff.
