It was remote, far away from everything - that‘s what I like. I like the idea of being Eco: no plastic, waterless toilets etc. Very good!

− The Pemba Eco Lodge organzes a pick up from the airport (or elswhere), this is more or less the only way to get to the property. Well organized - but you should know that. And it would be nicer if this pick up service would be a little cheaper…

Sehr empfehlenswerte Ökolodge.

Frühstück und Dinner waren lecker zubereitet, alles frisch aus der Region. Toller Koch. Die Lage ist traumhaft, ein herrlicher Strand, weit und breit keine Autos o. ä., da auch nur Fusswege. Ein Strand, der ohne Watchmen auskommt. Angenehm und sauber die Trockentoiletten.Geringer ökologischer Impact. Die Bungalows sind grosszügig. Die Angestellten der Lodge sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

− Der einzige Wermutstropfen war, dass wir am Schluss die Tax nochmal zahlen mussten, obwohl wir sie auch mit der Buchung über booking schon gezahlt hatten. Da man mit dem Boot übergesetzt wird, muss man je nach Gezeitenstand vom anderen Ende von Shamiani zur Lodge laufen. Man wird aber begleitet und es ist ein schöner Weg. Die Begleiter haben unser Gepäck getragen. Man sollte nicht wie wir mit Rollkoffer kommen, besser mit Rucksack. Das war hart für die Begleiter.

Just Fantastic!

− Purtroppo durante il soggiorno abbiamo lasciato un paio di scarpe da ginnastica piuttosto care fuori dalla stanza e sono sparite. Avrebbero fatto meglio ad avvisarci di fare attenzione

At first, we were a little disappointed by the dated simplicity and lack of style, the energy-saving lights with their harsh white glow, and the plastic washed up on the beach. However, we decided to stay and didn't regret it. The secluded, wonderful beach and Omar's personal and warm hospitality are unforgettable. We were treated to delicious meals and even had candlelight at our request. Omar was very empathetic and able to respond to our criticisms and special requests. We embraced a few days of genuine African hospitality. We met locals who came daily to collect shells and fish. Instead of just loitering on the beach and complaining, we started collecting the plastic waste that washed up every day, with visible success. Eventually, even the village children helped us. The residents of this paradise are completely overwhelmed by the waste problem, ignoring, burying, or burning this foreign garbage as a makeshift solution. Neither the authorities nor the owners of Pemba Lodge seem to be offering any solutions. Furthermore, there are concerns that if the trash were collected regularly, it would simply end up back in the ocean. Perhaps our initiative will inspire others, perhaps the local population will develop a greater awareness over time, and perhaps Adam, the manager on site, could organize trash collection days in conjunction with the local school, thereby raising awareness of this issue. Small, rewarding gestures could help win people over.
