Some units feature a seating area and/or a balcony.
A bicycle rental service is available at the lodge.
Kitu Kiblu is a little gem in Kilindoni, only 5 minutes from the airstrip. The lodge is completely immersed in nature, with direct access to the ocean and a breathtaking view. The atmosphere is more of a family than an accommodation facility: you feel right away at ease with everyone, and you can immediately switch your brain off and take away any sort of stress that you carry on your shoulders. If you want, you can also organise an encounter with the whale sharks in a responsible and organized manner.
I left a piece of heart in Kitu Kiblu and I'll definitely come back.

Incredibly nice staff - try to help and accommodate wherever they can. Could change the room without problems as I needed AC to be able to sleep (March can be incredibly hot and humid). Even came back to the hotel after diving on the other side of the island. Everything seems a bit rustic as first but you will definitely fall in love with it. There is a really really nice gift shop with handicrafts on site - really nice woman from the village, definitely one to support. The locations to the beach is super close and to the left there are two more hotels you can go for dinner or a drink. People all know each other on Mafia and help you with everything! :) Breakfast is great!

The host, the location, the hospitality and the positive attitude of Mussa
Amazing stay at Butiama Marine camp. For those visiting Mafia, would 100% recommend. Its location right on the beach is unmatched, excellent breakfasts and dinners, and fantastic staff. If you’re looking to dive, would recommend Mafia Island diving. Staff were much friendlier than those at Big Blu (dive shop at marine camp).
Wonderful and very helpful staff. Spacy and very clean rooms. Great pool and a nice restaurant on site.
The staff was magnificent, kind, and attentive. The facilities are new and beautiful. The pool was perfect to relax in and cool off.

Beautiful place. Very comfortable and clean. Nice staff. Good location near the airport and outside the marine park. Delicious food and very nice to share breakfast and dinner with the other guests.
Beautiful accomodation. Outstanding hygiën. Perfect location for divers. Friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic chef (best zuchini soup ever) 😊 Highly recommended
Great location right on the marine park perfect for divers. The staff were super friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great. Very relaxed feel.
The staff are amazing. Abi is so helpful and kind. The Whale Shark activity was awesome and the Captain and Guide were respectful towards the Whale Sharks unlike the other boats around us. It was also cheaper than the other lodges. The room was spotless and comfortable. Spa treatment fantastic. Really super spot. Its the perfect place to book at the start of your Mafia holiday and then explore. Thank you Maisara:)
Great for budget travellers, lovely staff, great location
