We liked the privat beach a lot. The area is not crowded at all. Also the pool a gray place to hang out. It was perfect to relax.
After only three minutes walk you reach local shops and restaurants. Perfect mixture between tourist life and authentic experience.

The location is perfect for a chilled holiday! The facilities they have ensure that, if you’d like to just stay and relax there, you are able to(there’s two swimming pools, direct access to the beach, bar, restaurant…). I have never felt this welcomed before by staff, they really make you feel welcome and help with any problem/queries you might have. They also organise tours from the property. Food in the restaurant is great.

Everything in our stay was fantastic. The room was very spacious and clean and the bed amazingly comfortable. We loved the breakfast and the staff everywhere was immensely friendly and attentive. A special note to the security James that looked out for us the entire time. Also, if you want to have a truly local experience, we recommend the beach boy George for anything and everything you might need. They made our stay very special!

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 property is well kept and well managed. It felt like our home away from home during our first 5 nights in Zanzibar. Solomon was extremely efficient from check in till check out. Pendo the housekeeper was always attentive and caring to our needs. The Chef made our mornings even more special with a wonderful breakfast spread. It’s location on the beach made our stay even more amazing. Nothing beats waking up and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. Plus, very close to beachfront restaurants and a local grocery store.
Zan View in my opinion is outstanding, because of its management & staff team, its authentic interior design and cleanliness and its location. In Zanzibar people are super friendly in general, friendliness and service-orientation of the whole team was exceptional and far above expectation (am travelling to Zanzibar since 2008). Located on top of a small hill, with stairways down to Kairo village and the hotels private beach stretch,it is a georgeous combination of hotel privacy and local village.
The facility is beautifully placed in Kiwengwa, the beach is beautiful as well as the common areas of lounge, bar and restaurant. There is beautiful scenary when having a meal with breathtaking views. The food was lovely especially the buffet on christmas day. The rooms had lovely kangas and a basket for use which I found very useful for the beach and pool. The manager George Maina is also quite helpful and administered first aid when I got a small Injury. That was very much appreciated.
The best experience in Zanzibar at Boho Boutique Hotel!! Amazing location right on the beach, above all my expectation!!! The rooms are very modern, comfortable and clean! Even the breakfast was an amazing experience with homemade bread and sweets!!! The beach very clean and the infinity pool is outstanding. It seems like 5* hotel way above our expectation. We highly revommend this boho style small hotel and definitely will come back again!
Our stay at Z-Lodge hotel was really great. The food and cocktails were delicious and satisfying, with each meal leaving us impressed. The ocean's colors during high tide were a sight to behold, adding to the overall experience. Our room was interesting, featuring old Zanzibarian antique furniture that gave it a unique feel. It was a fantastic choice for a relaxing retreat for my husband and me.
Very clean and nice European-style hotel, few meters from Kiwengwa Beach, which is by no means one of the best beaches in Zanzibar. The rooms were very comfortable. We had breakfast and dinner included. The food was ok, a bit repetitive - all the same every day- but good. Very nice pool area and private spot on the beach. Stay there some days so you get known with people.
The local staff were great, the rooms were spacious, we liked how comfortable the beach area was (hammocks, beach chairs,…). Since the hotel is located at the southern tip of Kiwengwa beach, there are less people walking on the beach trying to sell things. Also nice that the hotel is in walking distance of other places along the beach (kite surfing, restaurants,…)
Value for money. Loved the beachy vibes; stepping out our door, feet in the sand, straight to the beach. The food was delicous and we enjoyed reading a book in the hammocks. Chantal also helped us out with information about activities and provided tips for our further trip in Zanzibar. Truly recommend this place and restaurant when staying in the Kiwengwa area.
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 nice staff in the hotel and an exceptional host which helps you with every question or problem! fresh friuts of their own garden. the chef cook is open for wishes like special zanzibar dinner. a very nice, clean and quiet place to chill after a kite surfing or tour day without screaming kids.
Excellent hotel in an incredible setting. Great facilities, room was very clean and bed very comfortable. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great food with different choices for dinner every night. We extended our stay because we enjoyed it so much and recommend 100% if staying in Zanzibar.
Very calm atmosphere. I felt like at home, very helpful staff, it felt very secure and relaxing.
The manager was very helpful and all the staff accommodating. I would recommend this hotel to everyone and would go back myself. This is exactly the kind of hotel that I expected in Zanzibar.
the Hotel is really tiny! (5 rooms total) Which is nice, personnel knows you, knows what you like and you know them as well. Short way to breakfast, to the pool or reception. Staff is extremely friendly, helpful and supporting. If you need something, there is always somebody to help.
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)
Location was great except
I found Kiwengwa
Beach to be the most polluted beach I have ever stayed on
And was surprised that the resorts make no attempt
To clean debris off the beach. Breakfast was
Good
the owner of the property is one of the best person that I meet in Zanzibar.
SIMAI I'll see you again, thank you for your hospitality.
the hotel great just by the beach.
