THE NOBU VIEW

The stay

Matemwe Attitude offers adults-only villas with shared swim-up or private pools, varied dining and Spa POZ on Zanzibar’s northeast coast. Guests must be eighteen or older.

Matemwe Attitude offers an adults-only villa stay on Zanzibar’s northeast coast, with seventy-four villas spread between planted grounds and the lagoon. Its design draws on Swahili forms, local craft and coral-coloured walls, while the absence of televisions encourages a slower routine. Air conditioning and Wi-Fi remain part of the practical room setup.

Five villa categories provide different relationships with the water. Swim-Up Villas connect directly to a shared infinity pool. Deluxe and partial-sea-view villas have private pools, while the two-level Seafront and Beachfront categories add larger living areas and elevated pool terraces. A Seafront label does not mean the same position as direct Beachfront access, so room selection deserves a clear explanation.

Dining includes Chakula Chakula, the beachside Fukwe venue and in-villa service, with a Dine Around arrangement advertised from half-board upwards. Upepo pool bar and Karibu lounge provide drinks and lighter pauses during the day. Spa POZ, yoga and marine or local-culture experiences add options beyond the villa.

For Nobu, the hotel suits adult couples, friends and solo travellers who want contemporary villa accommodation with organised dining choices. The group’s adults-only policy starts at eighteen.
