This property does not accommodate bachelor(ette) or similar parties.
The breakfast was varied and plentiful, and the lunch also offered a great selection and was excellent. The staff were friendly and very attentive. It was my first time in Mafia Island and I stayed for four nights. Considering the staff’s professionalism and proactiveness (including Masut), as well as the cleanliness and tasteful design of the facilities, the overall standard was very high and excellent value for the price.
Gorgeous hotel right on the beach, with beautiful views of the bay and Chole island. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and made our stay unforgettable.
Raramente un posto supera le aspettative, Basecamp ci è riuscito! Dalla gentilezza e disponibilità del personale, la comodità e cura delle stanze, la bontà dei pasti e colazione (sempre con frutta freschissima). La posizione è ideale per visitare Chole e d’intorni, per fare passeggiate lungo la spiaggia e provare i ristorantini vicini. Le gite per vedere gli squali balena sono dall’altra parte dell’isola, ma raggiungibili in 15-20 minuti di tuktuk o macchina.
Amazing place great location very good staff very supportive and friendly. Great food, clean
All good
Tout 👍🏻
Le calme du lieu, l accueil et la disponibilité du personnel, tout a été parfait
Ten obiekt to chyba najleprzy wybór na wyspie ,super personel i obsługa ! Wszystko nam się podobało !!! Napewno wrócimy!
Personnel tres gentil
Basecamp Eco Lodge is perfectly situated at the beautiful white sand beach of Utende in the middle of a protected marine park. No mass tourism yet on Mafia therefore a tranquil place to fully relax and enjoy the high level of comfort and luxury that Basecamp offers with beautiful new boutique rooms in the middle of an authentic African experience in the village next to it. As the beautiful Chole bay and marine park are just in front of the lodge it is very easy to take one of the many tours.. You can easily spend 1-2 weeks without being bored as Mafia island has much experiences to offer.. There are a few diving schools in Utende at walking distance. Also a few small Swahili restaurants along the coast.
The Basecamp restaurant also served a diverse and tasty menu which changes every day.
The staff of Basecamp is amazing - they really make you feel at home and take care of everything you might need.
Highly recommended!
Nothing worth mentioning
A beautiful resort right by the sea. We found it offered the perfect blend of luxury, nature and a relaxed atmosphere. Just the ticket for unwinding and relaxing. We particularly enjoyed breakfast every day in the lovely open-air restaurant. The seaside bar is also a great spot for a relaxed get-together. The pool is perfect for all ages too! I love the sun loungers and parasols, which, like so many other things here, are made from natural materials.
La gentillesse du personnel
Great location, good value for money
Very friendly staff, accommodating and helpful with our excursions.
It rained, but we still had wonderful diving under the sea!
The hotel is just beautiful, they take care of every detail, the room is super big and confortable. The food is delicious and changes every day. The pool is huge and always clean, there are two bars and a restaurant with a good menu. But the most remarkable thing is the staff, from reception to every waiter/waitress, they are so kind and extremely helpful. We didn’t want to leave!
- Schöner ruhiger Strand mit Palmen & Liegen
- gute Lage für Schnorchelausflüge zu schönen Reefs
- Grosse Frühstücksauswahl mit frischen Eierspeisen, Früchten & Backwaren
- Renovierte Zimmer sind sehr schön modern & geräumig, mit schöner Aussicht, schnelles Internet
- Sehr schön gestalteter Aussenbereich & Restaurants
- schöner grosser Pool mit Wasserfall, Poolbar & Liegen
- Billardtisch
- freundliches Personal
- Hotel liegt im Naturschutzgebiet = vor Ort ist zusätzlich eine Gebühr von USD 23.— pro Person & Nacht zu begleichen!! Diese Info steht weder bei Booking.com noch auf der Hotelwebseite!
- Preisleistung stimmt beim Abendessen nicht (kleine Portionen, lieblos angerichtet) Alternative Empfehlung: 2 lokale Restaurants am Strand (lecker, frischer & günstiger)
- Touren über das Hotel zu buchen war leider umständlicher & teuerer als bei den localen Anbietern (Hotel hatte auch nach einer Woche die Touren-Preisliste/Angebote noch nicht gefunden)
- Hatten Zimmer mit Kühlschrank, Wasserkocher & Internet gebucht - jedoch nicht erhalten, stattdessen Schimmel im Zimmer. Nach Reklamation erhielten wir an Tag 2 dann glücklicherweise ein renoviertes Zimmer was alles gebuchte enthielt.
Super best Camp Hotel at Mafia Island and tanzani 🫶🥰♥️🤩🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Everything Perfect
Un detalle que suma mucho es el personal de seguridad masái, que le da un aire simpático y exótico al lugar, aportando un toque cultural auténtico a la experiencia. La ubicación es excelente, justo en la misma playa de Utende y en el punto desde donde salen las excursiones para hacer snorkel y visitar Chole Island. Es muy práctico si quieres explorar el parque marino y moverte fácilmente en barco.
Al principio fue bastante decepcionante debido a la habitación estándar que nos asignaron inicialmente. Estas habitaciones necesitan una renovación urgente. Todo lo metálico estaba oxidado, la puerta de la terraza no cerraba correctamente y, lo peor de todo, la humedad en las paredes era evidente. El olor a humedad era muy desagradable y nada saludable.
Además, la cisterna del baño dejó de funcionar en dos ocasiones. Después de la segunda vez, finalmente nos cambiaron a una habitación superior. Las habitaciones del lado derecho con vistas al mar son completamente distintas: más nuevas, mejor cuidadas y realmente merecen la pena. La diferencia respecto a las estándar es enorme.
Mi recomendación es clara: no reservéis las habitaciones estándar, la experiencia puede ser muy mala. Si vais, elegid directamente una superior con vistas al mar.
El desayuno está bastante bien, pero la comida o la cena dejan bastante que desear.
Tutto!
Lodge fantastico, immerso nel verde delle alte palme e fronte spiaggia paradisiaca. Colori mozzafiato.
Personale gentilissimo, sempre pronto a soddisfare ogni nostra richiesta. Cucina deliziosa. Centro diving PADI associato di ottimo livello
Nulla!
Très bel hôtel en bordure de plage avec une chambre très spacieuse avec vue mer, un très bon restaurant qui propose tous les jours un menu différent midi et soir servi par du personnel très souriant et attentionné. Piscine naturel et salon de massage au prix imbattable de 20 USD l’heure. Le tout dans une atmosphère très calme et sécurisé grâce au Massaï qui discrètement sont présents. Cerise sur le gâteau, un joli cadeau en quittant l’hôtel avec des produits locaux et surtout un bracelet personnalisé.
