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.

Exceptiona sunrises and view. It is a beautiful and peaceful place in Zanzibar, far from noise and interruptions. Food was so great - it is easy to compare with high class restaurants in US.

Kiwengwa is a perfect place to spend time with the family. Exquisit nature, kind people and the best food.

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.
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.
We were the first guest in this hotel.All the staff and the owners were very kind ,friendly and unbelievably polite and helpful.The pool was with amazing view to the ocean ,extremely clean and there was a great bar inside the pool.Our room was very spacious and very clean.The food in the restaurant was definitely the best in Zanzibar.The breakfast was also the best in Zanzibar with plenty of food.We definitely recommend this hotel. Thank you Zanzibella for the great time !
Our stay was smooth and quite nice, after staying in different hotels in Zanzibar I know when I find a gem and Boho boutique hotel is one of them. Daniel and Roxana makes you feel immediately at home. Their such a nice host.
The hotel is clean, modern and stylish just very close to the beach. Amazing for a Zanzibar vacation of your dreams. Thank you Daniel, Roxanna and the team for hosting us, we will surely come back again!

Leo and Sabrina
Unlike most other resorts this one is right on the beach, there is no barrier between you and the ocean. And since it’s a small place the beach vendors (who are everywhere on every beach in Zanzibar) tend to focus on the beach stretches of the bigger resorts. This is a huge advantage.
Food is great, staff is friendly and welcoming.
Walking up and down the beach it was super evident that this is the best place for kilometers both up and down the beach.
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!
My wife and I stayed at this hotel in August 2023. We enjoyed almost everything, except for the tides, but they're pretty much everywhere except the busy beaches of Zanzibar, which we didn't want to go to. About the hotel: it's secluded, peaceful, with stunning nature and sunrises. The rooms are spacious and clean, the staff is attentive, and the restaurant serves delicious food. Funny nocturnal creatures similar to lemurs also visited the restaurant.
We liked that the hotel was very clean and safe, by far the best location we visited in Zanzibar. Our room was very cozy, comfortable bed and nice private patio! The staff is great and very helpful with resort issues and also with organizing transfer! Very good prices for everything and good value. The private beach is well furnished with many swings, perfect to relax and for beautiful photos, especially the swing in the ocean.
Excellent hotel with a super nice view of the ocean. It has only 5-6 rooms so, it is very calm and relaxing. Staff is extremely welcoming and helpful. They made us feel at home. Breakfast & dinner were delicious! Pool adds to the view and, although not very big, nice to chill around and relax. Overall an amazing place and our favourite in Zanzibar, highly recommended and cannot wait to come back!
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.
best hotel/resort I’ve stayed in, staff soo friendly and professional. they think of everything.
It was summed up by our final night on this Zanzibar trip, we were the last people having dinner at the Jetty restaurant, one of the staff members on the golf buggy knew somehow we were the last and drove to meet us, it saved my wife a long walk in her heels.
The hotel is very beautiful and authentic, the staff are very welcoming. I woulk like to thank KHADIJA from the reception for her beautiful smile and service, she made our stay more beautuiful.. the hotel suggests activities for the guests, very relaxing and comfortable.. the rooms are very big and comfortable.. very beautiful view also from the room
The location is really nice. Even though the hotel itself is not really at the beach ( they have a beach bar and the hotel is like 100 m further), that beach is the best one we've seen in Zanzibar. The rooms were clean and food was decent. The ac was working fine and water in the shower was hot. Internet was good.
It's very nice smaller hotel than BlueBay which makes it more comfortable and quieter. The food is tasty and even there is no huge selection it's good enough. Stuff is professional so it makes your stay very pleasant and relaxing. I think that this is very good choice if you go to visit Zanzibar.
Not sure where to start...OUR STAY WAS MORE THAN AMAZING.. THE BEACH IS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WE HAVE SEEN IN ZANZIBAR... WHITE SANDS AMAZING FOOD.. OUTSTANDING BREAKFAST AND WARM HEARTED ATTENTIVE STAFF.. I WILL DEFINETLY BE COMING BACK. THANK U IMARA FOR THIS EXPERIENCE. FOOODIS A MUST.
Great location, approx 1hr from Zanzibar airport, $50 oneway transport, great communication thru "Whats App", driver was kind and respectful. Resort is really nice with gorgeous grounds, clean pools.
The resort mostly has a European clientele.
Workers are kind and helpful
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.
