Perfekt place to get away from the hustle & bustle of the city and relax in nature. The room was large and spacious (Family room) We loved the Aesthetic interior in the rooms and outside. Enjoyed a great time at the beach (at low tide). Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Amazing breakfast, very tasty food… we loved the Tuna steak.

The stay at Zan View Hotel was an amazing experience. View to the ocean from the 1st floor is amazing, the food is delicious, however, the best part of this object is its staff, especially the manager Frank :) Highly recommand !

The resort is simply a little spot in paradise, with its private beach and an amazing pool. All the staff is super kind and smiles all the time from all the waiters to the managers, special thanks to our dinner waiter Samson, we can say we made a friend here. The rooms are big and most important very clean. Food is just delicious both the buffet breakfast and the restaurant. I would definitely recommend this resort and hopefully will come back very soon.

Kiwengwa is a perfect place to spend time with the family.
Kiwengwa is a perfect place to spend time with the family. Exquisit nature, kind people and the best food. Boat trips, beach activities, village strolls, getting to know the culture of local people who are very knowlegeable about the natural agriculture and extreemly kind and nice. We loved every minute of our stay at Kiwengwa.

I loved the colour, clarity and temperature of the water.
I loved the colour, clarity and temperature of the water. The sand was so soft and almost white. I didn't like the hassle on the beach though. It was easier to stay at the hotel to avoid it. But that's not why you visit another country!

Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest.
Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest. That meant fewer people and tranquility which was what I was looking for during that trip. The hotel was also exactly what I need. All the facilities (gym, massage, sports activities) + excellent food at a reasonable cost. And Fatma the day manager was great. A wonderful person and soul

The restaurant and other staff were extremely courteous and helpful in all circumstances.
The Food and Beverager Manager Zablon is a kind and focused man, results oriented.
The resort is on a lovely stretch of a long beach on the east of Zanzibar. It has two lovely pools (one a salt water pool), has security watching the hotel from the beach, preventing hagglers coming up to you, a range of eating and drinking areas, plus nightly shows and daily activities such as water polo and beach volleyball. All set in nice gardens and well designed. The rooms are very good, albeit we moved into a second room that had a slightly strange odour and the door handle to the bathroom fell off! Other than that, very good.
Poa Poa is very small and intimate, which creates a homely and relaxed atmosphere. The staff work very hard to provide a spotless and cosy environment just steps from the beautiful beach. The bungalows are discreet and harmonious, and the pool is a good size for a small hotel. Meals are served in the lovely beach bar with good food and occasional live music. Zanzibar is not a cheap destination but we loved the fact that Poa Poa has a sense of intimacy and style that makes it a special place to stay.
Excellent property and Alice from the Zanzibar Houses Office management was very easy to deal with. Suleyman was accessible throughout the stay and Sule (the stay-in security guy) was also respectful of our requests for privacy as a family. Rahmah the cleaning lady was amazing and the property was super clean everyday. Chef was also accommodating of our requests and made some excellent pancakes. If you like sunsets, it is a dream come true! :-)
The Zanbluu Beach Hotel is a wonderful place to stay in Zanzibar. You can enjoy a very good breakfast in the morning and a good Dinner in the evening at the Main Hall which has a great view on the sea. The Facility was great and good managed. The quality of the food is very high and the kitchen has a lot of potential albeit minor mistakes to fix to realize this potential. The staff as well as the managers were very friendly.
We liked to stay at this place. The chef is very nice and the food is amazing. We stayed on Zanzibar for 3 weeks (in more than 5 hotels) and here we had the best food. Also the time for getting the food was compared to the rest of Zanzibar high speed:)
The hotel itselfe is not directly at the beach, but has a private beach in 2min walking distance. In general, I would say that this hotel is perfect for families.
Velue for money for sure!
The staff is amazing and always helpful and thoughtfull. Ive never had such good care in no other western hotel. This is a true jam.
Special thanks for receptionist Dida! Such welcoming, always smiling and gives her 120% at all times.
Thank you kitchen team, bar team, house keeping and just everyone.
Will definitely come back to this place, full of great energy and love.
The resort has an amazing private beach and the ocean in Kiwengwa is beautiful. My room had the perfect ocean view.
Food was absolutely delicious, the local chefs did a very good job.
I also had a massage.. the lady has magic hands.
The owners are very friendly and they make sure you are happy with everything.
Very friendly and attentive staff. Great food with fresh ingredients and something for everyone on the menu (including veggie options). You can walk from the hotel to Kiwengwa without ever leaving the beach, or to Pongwe in the opposite direction if you have a bit more time and the tide is out.
The staff at this place are amazing. Very friendly, very humble, very helpful.
You'll fall for them and miss them when you leave. They made my zanzibar trip worth while and shared memories for life.
I will definitely visit again.
Enjoyed the day bed a lot, lovely location right on the beach.
Amazing location, the hotel was absolutely beautiful and the environment was incredible, so green and lush, with a clear view of the ocean.
Kiwengwa in general is much quieter than other parts of Zanzibar, but that works for an even more relaxing experience.
Overall 9.5/10 stay!
fantastic location only a couple of meters from the tide line. large comfortable rooms, small hotel only 6 rooms and each have there own dedicated beach terrace. very good food, with Italian flavor. Beach is clean and unspoiled, no large hotels and only a few small tourist business.
Great location and set up. Nice staff, good food, small and personablel hotel. Good option for Zanzibar in our opinion as its not too busy a spot, the hotel rooms step right onto the beach and the sea is lovely here for swimming (not always the case given the reef and the tides)
The property exceeded our expectations. We had a lovely stay. The staff were great as well as the food.
The spa was amazing.
We needed a relaxing vacation - and Kiwengwa Beach Resort is the best place. We would definitely return for another stay!
I opened the curtains and the beautiful sunrise greeted me in the morning. The area was nice and calm and relaxed and the hotel staff was very responsive especially as I had some diet related issues related to my recently finished safari trip.
Room is clean ,beach view .staff is very professional and friendly. I enjoyed my stay there . It is like paradise.Flesita and Sasha were amazing and the rest of the staff also . For sure I will come again. Kwaheri Zanzibar
Atmosphere in the hotel is amazing thanks to very friendly and smiling staff. The best breakfast offer in Zanzibar and delicious local cuisine. Scooter trip on the beach was great experience. I highly recommend.
Beautiful Resort on one of the best beaches in Zanzibar. Phillipo is a great manager, welcomed us, upgraded our rooms for us and offered us all inclusive for an additional fee which we accepted.
The workers were so friendly, the food was good and it was so peaceful.
Me and my wife are definitely coming back to this hotel during our next trip in Zanzibar.
