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 cozy little hotel , very close to Kivengwa Beach. Beach was really nice and beautiful . Have seen something like this only on pictures before - it was like being in small paradise . It's also a nice, quiet spot surrounded by greenery. Our room was simple but comfortable. All is new and room was very very clean!!! Meanwhile, I really like the staff, it was very nice as well. Would recommend for travelers looking for a simple, eco-friendly and affordable option close to the beach for sure!

Kiwengwa is an amazing place , only annoying this is the amount of African people that hassle you on the beach - men dressed as masi that are not from the the masi Maru tribe ( pretending they are ) and annoying you when you trying to enjoy a peaceful walk it is over bearing and no one wants that on their holiday - was most beaches in Zanzibar !!

Our stay was amazing and peaceful. The staff was funny and very friendly. Big thanks to Jana and her staff, Lameck in the restaurant section and Janet in housekeeping was so sweet and they looked after us at our 8-night stay. I would recommend this resort to anyone.

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.

My stay at Zanziblue Waves Hotel was truly memorable. Everything felt calm and relaxing from the moment I arrived. The staff were so kind and always ready to help with a smile. The rooms were clean, cozy, and beautifully maintained — a perfect place to unwind after exploring Zanzibar. I really enjoyed the peaceful environment and the overall hospitality. It felt like home away from home. I’ll definitely come back again and recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort and good service 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

It was a great and clean place, with amazing spa facilities and very friendly staff. The pool bar has great mock- and cocktails. The scale of the hotel is not too big, giving it a cosy atmosphere. We also enjoyed the variety of menu options and the quality of the restaurant, especially the tuna tartare and moyo pizza. From all the places we’ve been on Zanzibar, this is definitely our favourite.

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.
