The dining options were excellent and the quality of the food was also very good indeed. If we ever go back to Mwanza, we would definitely stay at Malaika again - in a heartbeat. ##### Richard William Stayed 14 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn 16 Feb 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay. We would recommend this hotel. Buzzing with local nightlife, families, business and pleasure. You can’t go wrong but don’t be fooled by the name beach - you can’t swim in the lake at that point. Great swimming pool though. ##### Kathryn Stayed 1 night in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donald 31 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful Tropical resort on the Lake Beautiful hotel with amazing gardens and pool. Right on Lake Victoria. Clean. Friendly and helpful staff. ##### Donald Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Truth 10 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful property Malaika Hotel was a good place to stay in Mwanza. The grounds are beautiful and well-kept. The staff was accommodating from getting us checked in early to assisting us with getting rides around Mwanza. The food was okay. Breakfast had a large range of buffet foods but none of them were excellent. There is someone making eggs, which was probably the best part of breakfast. I had tilapia one day. The food prices are a bit high but in line with a hotel standard. The pool area is nice and beautifully placed. I went in on a cooler day so didn't stay that long. There were children enjoying the inflatables provided. There were a lot of gnats in the water that weren't that visible until you were in the water. That also hurried my time. The room was spacious but not modern. The bathroom was huge and had a large soaking tub that we didn't use. The water was hot. There was a mini-bar that had some incorrect pricing, which scared us a bit to think that we had a Red Bull for 45,000\. We were glad to learn there was an additional 0 at the end. The turndown service was a nice touch. They brought cookies and a chocolate each night and put down the mosquito nets. They should knock louder because I few times I just found them entering when I was in the room. That's quite uncomfortable. I loved that the property next door had a band and club during the weekend. There are several places to sit and relax and enjoy the views. ##### Truth Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joann 13 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Two Sheets The stay was good. Wish there were 2 sheets on the bed. Comforter too much sometimes. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5A552083F42E5048BE79739C9066D541EA0B27B71639391749092.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joann Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jai 3 Dec 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We got upgraded to deluxe rooms. It is very beautiful property. The property has something to offer for every age group. Fish ponds and Swimming pools were amazing. Staff was really friendly and helpful who were ready to help you anytime. I will recommend the property to everyone who is going to Mwanza. Only thing if someone is going for work purpose than it is far from the down town. ##### Jai Stayed 1 night in Nov 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Zanzibar Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marumbi-Hotels-Zanzibar-Bay-Resort.h27086671.Hotel-Information) > > [Diamonds Mapenzi Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Diamonds-Mapenzi-Beach-All-Inclusive.h4532521.Hotel-Information) > > [The Residence Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kizimkazi-Hotels-The-Residence-Zanzibar.h4261204.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Royal-Zanzibar-Beach-Resort-All-Inclusive.h5563953.Hotel-Information) > > [Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Gold-Zanzibar-Beach-House-Spa.h5388856.Hotel-Information) > > [Breezes Beach Club & Spa – Half Board](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Breezes-Beach-Club-Spa-Half-Board.h3522641.Hotel-Information) > > [TOA Hotel & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pongwe-Hotels-Toa-Hotel-Spa.h75012943.Hotel-Information) > > [Kendwa Rocks Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Kendwa-Rocks-Beach-Hotel.h18030240.Hotel-Information) > > [Reef & Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jambiani-Hotels-Reef-Beach-Resort.h6643793.Hotel-Information) > > [Konokono Beach Resort and Isaraya Over Water Villa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Konokono-Beach-Resort.h3881687.Hotel-Information) > > [Pongwe Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pongwe-Hotels-Pongwe-Beach-Hotel.h8057383.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Safari Lodge Serengeti](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Serengeti-National-Park-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Safari-Lodge-Serengeti.h2949601.Hotel-Information) > > [Zuri Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kendwa-Hotels-Zuri-Zanzibar.h20217090.Hotel-Information) > > [Kiwengwa Bungalow Boutique Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Kiwengwa-Bungalow-Boutique-Resort.h19332541.Hotel-Information) > > [Turaco Nungwi Resort, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Zanzibar-Nungwi.h3300267.Hotel-Information) > > [The Mora Zanzibar - Luxury All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Emerald-Zanzibar-Resort-Spa.h78245396.Hotel-Information) > > [Baraza Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Baraza-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h10042688.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Mersenne Zanzibar, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Michamvi-Hotels-Le-Mersenne-Beach.h65725614.Hotel-Information) > > [ Safaya Luxury Villas (Adults Only)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Safaya-Luxury-Villas.h91433919.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Zanzibar - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Zanzibar-All-Inclusive.h5361523.Hotel-Information) > > [Neptune Pwani Beach Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Neptune-Pwani-Beach-Resort-Spa.h4544303.Hotel-Information) > > [TUI BLUE Bahari Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-TUI-Blue-Bahari-Zanzibar.h4532516.Hotel-Information) > > [Kena Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matemwe-Hotels-Kena-Beach-Hotel.h4544228.Hotel-Information) > > [Sea Cliff Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mangapwani-Hotels-Sea-Cliff-Resort-Spa.h978691.Hotel-Information) > > [Melia Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Melia-Zanzibar.h1407257.Hotel-Information) > > [Kiwengwa Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Kiwengwa-Beach-Resort.h11888909.Hotel-Information) > > [Ocean Paradise Resort & Spa Zanzibar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kiwengwa-Hotels-Ocean-Paradise-Resort-Spa-Zanzibar.h4235502.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Jambo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Jambo.h75595198.Hotel-Information) > > [Z Hotel & Z2 Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nungwi-Hotels-The-Z-Hotel.h3675918.Hotel-Information) ---
