The Island was an important trading post from 11th to 13th centuries. Today Mafia Island is known as a resort Island for deep-sea fishing and scuba diving.

The Lodge has 40 rooms, at garden level, equipped with ventilator and a veranda overlooking the Indian Ocean. Mafia Island is a 30-minute flight from Dar es Salaam and its coral gardens teem with a wide variety of marine life including barracuda, flying fish, red mullet and parrotfish, making it a paradise for divers and anglers. The lodge’s diving centre offers equipment necessary for divers to discover the marine wonders of the coral reef. Built from coral stone, the 40 rooms are at garden level with a veranda overlooking the ocean. The restaurant serves local specialities, seafood and fish. Facilities include fishing, wind surfing, sailing, boat trips to neighbouring islands and diving. Qualified divers can rent diving equipment from the hotel.

Mafia Island is - in the true sense – an island retreat for the active beachcomber who is serious about enjoying the sea and islands, adventure divers, game fishermen, bird-watchers or just for simple feet-up relaxation.
