Accommodation

At the Sunshine Hotel there are 16 rooms:
  • 12 Sea View Suites
  • 1 Honeymoon Suite
  • 1 Blue Breeze Suite
  • 1 Garden Retreat Apartment
  • 1 Garden View Room

In every room you will find a comfortable double/twin bed with large mosquito net, private bathroom with shower and toilet, effective ceiling fan, safe deposit box, stone bench covered with cushions, wooden wardrobe, cool ambient lights and a spacious balcony or veranda (except garden rooms).

Sea View Suites are located in 3 bungalows, named: Clove, Cinnamon & Coconut which are all surrounded by tropical gardens. From all the Sea View Suites you can admire the Ocean whilst relaxing on comfortable furniture on your private balcony or veranda.

The Honeymoon Suite is the most luxurious room. It is located in the separate building, for extra privacy, right on the beach, With its own garden, beach banda and a jacuzzi on the veranda.

Above the Honeymoon Suite (in the same building) we have the Blue Breeze Suite. It's equal in size but instead of private garden it has spacious terrace with very comfortable sun beds and fantastic view to the Ocean. It also has unique furniture made of 300 year old wood.

Garden rooms are set slightly back, with no sea view, but nicely designed and very comfortable. Excelent for those on tighter budget.

Please note that air conditioning is not in the rooms as standard. The hotel is eco-friendly and was specially designed to use the ocean breeze to cool down the rooms (like the sultan's palaces in the old times). On request (and at extra cost) Sunshine Hotel can provide mobile AC unit in some of the rooms.

Our opinion

Sunshine is a well designed and maintained hotel that offers simple but homely rooms and good views of Mnemba Island. This hotel sets the standard for hotels in this price range with beautiful gardens and public spaces, friendly and efficient management. and a fresh and unpretentious menu that changes every day.

The attention to detail is evident in everything from the way the place is designed to the quality of the food which is fresh, unpretentious with a menu that changes every day.The homemade chips, fruit jams and the sea food are all great. You can find some wonderful fair trade items in the boutique shop at reception where you can also borrow reef shoes for walking out into the sea.

Sunshine is the perfect place to stay for those who want to relax and get away from it all in a friendly and cosy environment and is a great place from which to explore Matemwe.
