I had a great experience in this hotel. The hotel itself is very new, and you can see that in nicely decorated spacious room with quality furnitures and lots of shelves and racks that are more than enough to store your extra stuff. Room was very clean, housekeeping was professional during my stay. Breakfast was great, wifi was strong enough to browse and check your emails. They even have a generator for power outages that are very common in Kendwa. 10 min walk to beach, which is not big deal, you even find a chance to grab a few groceries at a local store on your way back to hotel. Hotel staff was very friendly, helpful and always available to ask anything. They even let me check out after 5pm in my last day which made my day so easy as my flight was late in night. I will definitely book Crystal Coast again in my next visit to Kendwa.

Everything! Staff, room, restaurant, views, access to the beach etc. Everything was well done and taken care off. The restaurant manager Emmanuel goes out of his way to make every guest feel important and taken care of. They have one of the best turn down services every night and as well as a last day good bye dinner on the beach which is executed so well. Definitely one of the best places we have stayed and experienced!

Our stay at Kendwa Breeze truly felt like visiting a friend! This small, cozy, and tastefully designed hotel has only four rooms, giving it a very warm atmosphere. The owners, Elizabeth and Alex, along with all the staff, are extremely helpful and friendly. One of the highlights of our visit was definitely Scooby, their dog. The breakfast is big and delicious. While there is a bit of a walk to the beach, it’s manageable if you don’t have mobility difficulties. Kendwa Beach is beautiful and unaffected by the tides, so you can swim all day. There are many water sports available, and Elizabeth kindly helped us arrange them in advance. Highly recommended! 🐾

Kendwa beach was definitely the best beach compared to...

Kendwa beach was definitely the best beach compared to Nungwi, especially the south part. Even in low tide it was easy to take a swim. Also the beach here is wider and feel less crowded. As on the complete stretch there were many people trying to sell you stuff but on the south part not so many ”permanent” sales people other than the ones having sheds. The Maasai roaming around are friendly but just say no with a smile and most will not be persistent in their effort to sell you something..

If you are looking for white sand beach with the best ocean waters and minimal tides, Kendwa is the best place in Zanzibar. The beach is the most spacious and greatest on the island and the village provides all the necessities you would need. With many tours and water activities offered on the beach you would hardly need to move anywhere else. It is also a walkable distance to Nungwi during low tide if anyone is interested in a more bustily environment.

The sea and beach with super soft and white sand are absolutely fabulous and relatively clean. I got bitten by sand fleas on my legs because I spend a lot of time in the sea and walked barefoot. There is a lot of informal trade on the beach by locals trying to sell something. Maybe even more so if you are a woman walking alone.

The location is great, just a minute from the ocean, there are a lot restaurants both expensive and very local ones, no issues with electricity, hot shower and air-con and the safe box. Card and cash payment is acceptable. Very safe to stay and walk around even at night, the owner is very kind and trustworthy. Very basic breakfast but it OK, no TV and fridge in the room, internet is breaking so often especially in the room, but it works perfectly at the balcony. It is very budget friendly and highly recommend it.

Long walks on the beach, swimming even during low tide.

Long walks on the beach, swimming even during low tide. Some attractions are quite far and transport is expensive. Safari Blue Tour, Swimming with dolphins and turtles, Stonetown and the Serenity Spa were awesome. The trip advisor at the hotel assisted with bookings.

Great location on the beach, very nice and friendly staff, large rooms, beautiful grounds with many coconut palms Unfortunately, there is a lot of small plastic waste and cigarette butts on the beach near the beach chairs. Noise, pollution and danger from reckless jet ski drivers. DANGEROUS & Pollution

Such an amazing Zanzibar atmosphere of relaxation. Bungalow with a luxurious terrace (two tables, a sofa, chairs, a sunbed). Spacious room, closet, modern plumbing. Spacious shower room. Wonderful hostess, wonderful breakfast at a time convenient for you. There is a restaurant nearby, shops and the beach within walking distance. I would have gladly stayed longer.
