This property was probably one of the top ones along the coast a while ago. I like places with patina and character and would always prefer them to some slick exchangeable unit. Taken into account the relatively low price this is a place that comes with all the amenities I would expect. There is even local flair with meals, thanks to the cook. None of the prefabricated western fare. Very few other guests — perfect. A great place to relax. There were first some problems with the safe box and sink but because of swiftly addressing the problem, all was good. Again, don’t expect five stars if you pay for two, but this is a good value option and gave me all I wanted. Special mention to staff Rehema,- very attentive with heartfelt hospitality. Thank you everyone at HM!

Welcome Drink at Check in with friendly smiling team. Of course the Location of the Hotel is amazing with beautifull beach. At low tide just use the big Pool. Hotel is well protected by Local guards "Masai" There were enough Deck Chairs day and night. Wonderfull that WiFi works outside too. Breakfast was good , especially the fresh prepared eggs or omlettes. Varieté of breakfast is good. Hotel is close to Paje Center where you can find pharmacy or markets. Check out was friendly like Check out and I get help with my heavy bag. I recommend this Hotel for everyone with kids or couples.

I wished to have a small fridge in room.

Very beautiful setting, far enough from noise but close to walk to the main beach which was a beautiful stroll Room was beautiful, breakfast was great alot of options

Can not fault it

Nice Lodge at the Beach, 15min beachwalk to the mainspots at Paje Beach. We booked a Bungalow with Gardenview that was in the „second row“ of Bungalows and we actually had a seaview from there. The Bungalow is big, had air condition and even a hairdryer (most Lodges we had didn‘t have that!) Breakfast was a buffet that was okey, not a lot of choice but quite all you need. You can also order eggs of your choice that are prepared freshly. There is a beachfront with sunbeds, they are located with enough space in between so you have your privacy. Staff were all really friendly.

There were just some small things that could be improved, for example some sunbed mattresses look really old and used.

The ambiance, location, and staff

Slow response regarding a noisy customer

Super peaceful and quiet. The beach was absolutely stunning. Great location, near Paje and Jambiani. The villas were very cute and we loved the hammocks outside! The staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was good, especially the ‘egg station’. The rooms were cleaned to a very high standard and the ‘turn down’ service was appreciated.

We had an issue with the location of our room (we would be woken by smoke filling our room in the early hours, due to local fires) which the manager swiftly sorted by helping us move rooms. There didn’t seem to be enough sun loungers for everyone staying at the hotel.

I have had a wonderful stay at Hakuna Majiwe. The staff is incredible friendly, polite, professional and really helpful with everything. They really make you feel welcome and at home. The lodge is located in a quiet area, but in walkable distance to the centre of Paje with its nice little local restaurants and water activities. The little beach bungalows are giving a lot of privacy and it is wonderful to step out on the little private terrace in the morning seeing the ocean or falling asleep in the hammock under the stars in the evening. I think what makes this place extremely valuable and special is the wonderful staff working there. Thanks very much to each one of them for a real great and relaxing week.

+ We had the most amazing welcome, the staff is wonderful! We really liked the breakfast, a big variety. It was nice to be in Paje but still be a little away from the most touristy part. Beautiful beach, you can go for long walks. The rooms are nice and have a little private terrasse outside, we enjoyed relaxing in the hammocks. There’s both a fan and AC.

My husband and I stayed at Hakuna Majiwe for our honeymoon and absolutley loved it here! The facilities at this hotel are great, rooms are spacious and clean, swimming pool is large and restaurant is great. The team at Hakuna Majiwe are all friendly, warm and incredibly helpful, from the manager Sourav to restaurant staff and the ladies who cleaned our room. Anything we wanted or any problems we encountered were quickly resolved. The hotel is located near the end of Paje beach, a great place to stay and within walking distance to nearby restaurants and shops. The location meant we were able to enjoy Paje's amazing white sand and beautiful beach but were away from all the 'beach boys' trying to sell you tours and trinkets. We greatly enjoyed stay and we will definitely be visiting again!

Nothing!

It’s a big resort with really nice ocean facing rooms. Our room had a small terrace with a swing which we loved. we hung out there most of our time. The internet connection was good, I had video calls and most of the time it went smoothly. The staff were exceptional and very accommodating. George was super kind and he always brought us the best juices they were so good. Even the reception ladies helped me get my hair braided and were very helpful and nice. We stayed for 4 nights and every day the housekeeping was done perfectly. We absolutely loved our stay here.

It’s a bit far from the center of Paje. It takes around 15-20 minutes of walking to get there, but we had a car with us and it only took 5 minutes by car to get anywhere in Paje.
