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.

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.
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.
Zanzibella is the best place to stay in Zanzibar. The location is perfect and the rooms are super clean and very big and comfortable for a couple. The staff is so friendly and especially Chaimae with whom we had close communication even before our trip and arranged everything for us. She was even there when she was not working. She made our stay wonderful. The beach is very quiet. The food is exemplary and they provide good entertainment with too many shows. I would highly and with no hesitations recommend Zanzibella.
We’ve spent our last day in Zanzibar at kiwengwa beach at Lapili residence and I can say that everything was so pleasant, from the the lovely owners to the kindness of the whole staff, helpful and always smiling. Everything was simply amazing! The apartment in African style with comfortable beds, the beautiful pool and relaxing area, the beach and the food at the restaurant that was very good and tasty.
Would definitely stay here again and already recommended this gem to my friends. It’s a great value for money.
The hotel is a true gem. It is on the southern part of Kiwengwa village, which is very calm and has a beautiful beach right in front. The property has a very nice beach area with hammocks, loungers and mattresses where you can hang out at the beach the whole day.
The food was exceptional, portion size and taste wise. And not to forget the staff, who were all very kind, attentive and made sure we enjoyed our stay. We fully recommend staying at this hotel in this beautiful hidden gem part of the island.
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.
I loved my stay at Zan View Hotel. The staff was very helpful throughout our journey, always ready to accommodate us and very friendly. The location is perfect for someone looking for a quiet and calm area. I was happy to go through the village to get to the beach, it allowed me to meet wonderful people and to get in touch with the local culture. I booked most of my activities through the hotel and it went very well.
I would gladly stay there again if I ever go back to Zanzibar!
The facilities are great - The gym is large and comprehensive, the pools are great and the shuttle to the beach is efficient with great availability (almost every couple minutes).
The hotel looks amazing and well designed, almost every frame of the hotel looks like a Windows wallpaper.
The room is well decorated with a nice bathroom.
The is a verity of restaurants in the hotel with great food.
The staff and service are very welcoming and nice.
The hotel is very clean.
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!
We had a very nice stay in Kiwengwa at the Z-Lodge. The Staff was very nice, food was very good and our room was very nice. There is not much around and the beach is quite small. But in case you enjoy a quiet, relaxing stay, this place is very nice. Of course the hotel also offers tours and transfers. We used a transfer to go on a Quad tour in Kiwengwa which was super nice.
It is a great place for relaxation. The staff are exceptional, of all the hotels I’ve been at Zanzibar, I never had such a wonderful encounter with the staff. The owner, Virginia, had been very accommodating and considerable. Check out time is 11am but she considered our request to stay until 2pm. Very good buffet breakfast to start the day.
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 good food, everyday different and the hotel is very well located, right on the beach. The ocean itself was also very good to swim in, no rocks, which you find sometimes in Zanzibar. Besides, the staff is very friendly, Stella and Harry from the reception are very welcoming and there is everyday some other entertainment to do or see.
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.
Very friendly and attentive staff. Great food with fresh ingredients and something for everyone on the menu (including veggie options). You can walk from the hotel to Kiwengwa without ever leaving the beach, or to Pongwe in the opposite direction if you have a bit more time and the tide is out.
fantastic location only a couple of meters from the tide line. large comfortable rooms, small hotel only 6 rooms and each have there own dedicated beach terrace. very good food, with Italian flavor. Beach is clean and unspoiled, no large hotels and only a few small tourist business.
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
We have booked this hotel as our wedding venue and we went ahead to scout the location and hotel. The hotel was very accommodating. By far the nicest property on the stretch of Kiwengwa beach.
Wonderful personal touches throughout the stay and a quiet oasis. Felt very private.
The place gives off a Greece vibe and it’s so peaceful.Gibson was so helpful , he helped us with whatever we needed.
The place is next to the beach and their breakfast is so nice .
I definitely recommend this place and will always come back if I ever come to Zanzibar
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.
the hotel was amazing the staff are very nice special thanks to chiku eveline they made our stay good. we want also to thank chaimae for her care during the whole stay
