Positive: The best views of the natural world in the whole of Zanzibar. I loved the creative and thought that went into the construction of the bungalow! Its on top on a hill and views stretch into the distance. A walking distance from Mthende Beach.

Negative: The food would be better.

Positive: A great location for a relaxing get away. Very special to watch the monkeys in the morning. Staff were wonderful and welcoming, they patiently helped us with our Swahili. Beautiful bird song. The dinner was delicious (but a little expensive).

Negative: We got unlucky with a big power cut, out of everyone’s control and they were very helpful with providing lamps. It was the wet season after all but be aware it’s a possibility, my headtorch came in handy. The last stretch of road had some big puddles and pot holes, very manageable to navigate but good to note. Would still recommend!

Summary: Relaxing, peaceful environment with great staff.

Positive: This is a special place in a wonderful location. With gorgeous views over the beautiful baobab forest below, it is a privilege to stay in such a peaceful lodge. Zanzibar has a plentiful supply of typical beachfront accommodation, but for somewhere diferent and unique Monkey Mountain is fully recommended. It was marvellous to see the Bushbabies coming to the fruit laid out for them each night. Thank you Geoff, Suzi, Mwani and all of the staff for looking after us so well.

Negative: As vegetarians we would have liked more choice in the menu, but the staff catered wonderfully for us.

Summary: Two days of peaceful relaxation in a unique location

The atmosphere at the lodge felt authentic and very cozy. The staff was kind and especially Suzy was great thanks to her good english and warm personality. This lodge is definitely unique and really stands out from typical resorts! A big recommendation by two people who have seen a lot of accommodations from all around the world.

Positive: Beautifully built rustic lodge in the middle of a green bush forest with many majestic baobab trees. The monkeys are a little shy but very active in the late afternoon, visiting with us on the main terrace... Absolutely non threatening, just interested. We were lucky enough to see a bush baby who had come to find its dinner just as we were talking about our precious bush baby we had raised ourselves.... Such a wonderful surprise. The bar was well stocked and the food stunning.... Excellent chef who understands seafood. Overall we loved our 2 nights at monkey mountain.... Exactly what we were hoping for.

Negative: There is nothing to dislike at all

Summary: Wonderful relaxing bush experience No I'm

Positive: The staff at Monkey Mountain Lodge were incredibly kind and welcoming, we’ve never felt so well taken care of. The place itself is absolutely beautiful and will stay in our memories forever. The bungalows are clean, cozy, and offer amazing views with baobab trees. Every morning we were visited by adorable blue monkeys, which made the stay even more special! The breakfasts were also delicious. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Zanzibar!

Summary: An unforgettable stay!
