Best thing about hotel is that you can ask whatever you want and 99% of your wishes come true.
As European I like some things made differently as they are in Africa but if you ask the hotel staff makes it!
As example I can say they make awsome tuna stakes if you ask them! And they also add rum to your coconut if you ask. So the main tip is - ASK!
Moreover, as experienced travelwr I have been reading reviews about the hotel and two things were very disturbing (a) that the selection of food os not very rich; and (b) that the tides make the sea go away for a far far way.
To tackle that I shall say that (a) food is good and changes everyday, so even on 11 night stay you will have a varios optios to choose from (especialy if you are into sea food); (b) tides are constant but there was no day with out sea at your foot steps to the pool, meaning that some times you have to wait half a day before sea comes back but it eventualy does.
Featuring a terrace with Indian Ocean views, set by sandy Kiwengwa Beach, the 30-acre site includes a spa, pool and sports facilities.

Seashore is a lovely quiet boutique hotel made up of rustic beach bungalows a stone’s throw from the beach and a short walk to the main town. The main strip is plagued by sellers so it was so lovely to come back to the peace and tranquillity of Seashore.

Staff was very welcoming and best choice in Kiwengwa. the restaurant manager prepared some local dishes based on request. The beach was nice and less touristy considering the nungwi. It is almost in the center of island very accessible to all others destinations. My family really enjoyed the stay in the hotel.

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

Front Office led by Victor was outstanding and exceeded our expectations
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.
Zanbluu is a truly fantastic hotel on the East coast of Zanzibar. The pool area is beautifully designed, really spacious and the pool was fantastic. Our lodge was also amazing - exactly as on the pictures with lovely view to the sea. The food was excellent - dinner menu was particularly good which changed every day. Overall we were really happy with our stay - if you fancy switching off and not doing much (other than sunbathing) this is the perfect place for you.
it was small & beautiful, decorated in Zanzibari style, clean & great air conditioning! It’s on the east side of the island, much quieter & secluded than Stone Town. the staff was wonderful & respected our privacy. The food was excellent—- Italian chef cooked great dishes ( I wish he wouldn’t have yelled at his staff so much!)
They were helpful with taxis & excursions. We have no complaints at all & really enjoyed our time there, we also felt very safe!
Great location beutiful view and beautiful hotel,the african details in every corner and the beautiful building of the hotel wow!.The beach Kiwengwa beach is beautiful 5 minits from the hotel.The staf especially my litle two Zanzibar sisters was amazing and all of the staff so welcoming.I will be back! I REALLY recomend this place!The food was great too.My litle Edina i miss you thank you for everything and stay safe.

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! :-)
My stay was great, I had the peace and quiet I was looking for. I purposely choose an intimate hotel as I don’t like crowded places. Friendly staff, really good cleaning service, restaurant food is very good. Was really happy with the private beach access that brought a luxurious aspect to my stay in Zanzibar.
As a solo traveler, I felt safe in the room and hotel itself.
If I ever go back in Zanzibar, I would probably stay at Imara again.
We came to Zanzibar to travel and enjoy life. In Kiwengwa area we found a perfect place- Z-Lodge
Spacious rooms, nicely decorated, always kept clean.
Lovely pool and beach area.
Always smiling and very welcoming staff
Amazing breakfast and dinners! Menu is giving a big choice, unfortunately we could't taste all.
Super-Relaxing, feels like switching off all past and switching on a paradise mode.
+ professional & friendly team
+ decent wifi
+ delicious breakfasts with a wide variety of fruit
+ one of the best overall menu in Kiwengwa, octopus was outstanding!
+ beautiful beach with absolutely amazing sounds of ocean waves which we could hear from our room
+ great design inside & outside - white dream really stands out among other hotels in kiwengwa
I stayed in la base for 5 and the experience has been great. The place is really clean and comfortable. The restaurant is located right in front of the beach so you'll definitely have a relaxing time while enjoying your meal and drinks. Thanks to the hosts Cris and Luca. They were really cool. This place is a must when you're in kiwengwa.
Very cozy hotel with amazing and very friendly staff and hosts. The room was very spacious with clean linens and good pressure in the shower. Breakfasts were amazing and here they can make good espresso as well. The swimming pool and some shadows around it could really provide some rest from the hot weather conditions on Zanzibar.
Fantastic, great value little hotel right on the beach. Clean simple bungalow rooms which open right onto the sand. Rooms are very well set up for travellers with numerous universal power points and good Wi-Fi throughout. Great tasting breakfast and other meal options. Laura, Ania and the rest of the staff were amazing.
The Beach, Friendly Staff.
Melia Zanzibar is a beautiful resort, however, for the price charged rooms needs to be of a better standard.
We have also requested for an airport pickup, which was confirmed bu the hotel. When we arrived no driver was waiting for us in the airport. hotel number wasn’t working!
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.
Too bad it was only for 2 days! Unfortunately the hotel was full and we could not stay longer. As the hotel is new, there were a few shortcomings, but overall great. Very nice rooms, clean, satellite TV which is not so obvious on Zanzibar, air conditioning and a fan. I recommend!
It was such a wonderful stay of my life, the customer care was top notch. Victor the front office manager makes a lot of difference at Kiwengwa beach.Always available to assist.
Because of such people we cannot think twice but confirm another visit soon.
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.
During our vacation we booked 3 different hotels for the same price per night, Marafiki was the best in terms of comfort, facilities, staff and restaurant.
Definitely recommend!
Waking up to a view of the ocean from the foot of our bed, the cool pool vibe and incredible food and service made this one of our favorite stays in Zanzibar!
