Very beautiful hotel located right by the beach in a quiet area of Zanzibar. Perfect place to start your Zanzibar vacation if you need to destress and just look at the ocean. The highlight was however the staff. So sweet and always ready to help you. Edina, you are a sweetheart.

The meals on site were very good with a great deal of variety, everything was fresh and well presented. The fresh pastries and fruit served with breakfast were delicious.All the staff are very friendly and want you to be part of their Marifiki family.( Marafiki in Swahli means friend) Some of the exceptional staff include, Suzie, Esther, Justina (reception)Baton and Jack at the bar, and Nyungai,and Mhusin in the dining room. The beach at the resort is not really suitable for swimming but we knew that in advance and since they had a beautiful clean pool we were not expecting to use the beach other than for nice walks when the tide is out. We took part in the complimentary yoga class offered twice weekly and it was amazing, overlooking the Ocean. We were looking for a place to chill out after our safari on the mainland and this definitely hit the mark. It was never really busy as it only has 19 units in total. Our friends and us stayed in 2A and 2B which share a building and overlook the pool and are close to the bar and restaurant with a beautiful ocean view.

Very friendly host who makes sure you have a great experience. The house is right on the beach with your own private sun beds to lay on. If you are looking for a peaceful beach vacation in Zanzibar on budget, this is your place. There are some good restaurants near by, especially the White Dream restaurant, which serves the best authentic Italian food.

Lovely beach on the Indian Ocean.

Lovely beach on the Indian Ocean. Lots of restaurants, bars and snack shops from higher end and usual fare to local pubs and dining. Beautiful views, jet ski, kite surfing and dhow or outrigger hires for snorkeling. beautiful clear water and you can walk the sandbars at low tide or swim there at high tide. An hour or so from Stone Town hustle and bustle, but still close enough for a day excursion.

The beach is arguably one of the best on the island—long, swimmable, and vibrant. While it has more energy and amenities than a secluded spot, we still found it peaceful and relaxing, especially during the mornings. It's the perfect base for anyone who wants both stunning beach life and easy access to restaurants and activities.

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. 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

I absolutely enjoyed Poa Poa and would love to come back. Every detail at the hotel seems hand picked and made with love. The staff is very friendly and attentive, the food was amazing, including the cocktails/mocktails. I also tried a massage which was very good. I like that there are plants which serve as a natural separation between hotel and beach. There is live music twice per week which was really lovely. The beach is quiet in comparison to some spots in Zanzibar. My overall stay was really relaxing.

There was daily room service, and the staff were receptive to our requests. We were able to plan our various activities at Sipano, which made our trip enjoyable and stress free. This lodge was good value for money, and we will definitely visit again the next time we are in Zanzibar!!

Maybe the best location in Zanzibar. Kiwengwa has many restaurants and long beach with access. Having a rental car, we had the opportunity to explore most of the island and be able to compare. Best staff (management, cooking, cleaning, safety) Big house with 3 bedrooms and toilets, sea front, amazing view We enjoyed our dinners at the villa, all problems with water, internet, A/C and tree fall were immediately solved
