I stayed at few hotels in Zanzibar and here it is different - original bush has been saved , added flowers and endemic plants.African style architecture blended inside the garden , tastefully decorated rooms and some villas, each has different theme. I like the local arts around.Pool on the secluded beach , so wonderfully relaxing …Life slows down🌴☀️The cuisine is absolutely delicious. I enjoyed Zanzibar traditional music band

This is our second time to the resort. After 2 years we found it even better than previous time. There is not even one person in the resort that gives you nothing but the highest service! Carlo and his team made miracles - the service is a 5star by all means! Carlo makes sure he knows the names of each and every guest in the resort and he remembers them all :) Makes sure all requests and needs are fulfilled, goes the extra mile! Always interested if we have any recommendations for improvements. We spend a week there and almost every night we had some entertainment organised. No moment of boredom. There is something for everybody - for the kids, for the couples, for the singles :) Food is amazing, cocktails are real (you can taste the alcohol:)), good selection of beverages. All kinds of milkshakes and mocktails. The rooms, the pool, the garden and the beach - clean, beautiful, excellently managed! It deserves to be a 5 star hotel! if booking.com had higher rating than 10 this should be for Pongwe Bay Resort! Thank you! See you again :)

I have travelled quite widely and this truly is my favourite place in the world! The location is superb and was so quiet, no tourists to be seen at all! Sabina and Miss was amazing and looked after me so very well. The food is fabulous and the cocktails too. Solomon the owner is super too. I could not have been happier in this extraordinary beautiful place. I would without doubt come again! I even made my first Tik Tok film to show everyone Santa Maria Coral Park definitely the epitome of Hakuna Matata

You need to take into consideration the feelings of your visitors....we do not like being targeted by people pestering us to buy from them every time we go to the beach. It really is a negative factor of visiting your wonderful island paradise....it spoiled it for us. Also this happened to us on other beaches in Zanzibar so not just a Pongwe problem....its endemic to Zanzibar.

Pongwe is an isolated beach, at low tide the sea is very far away and, even at high tide, it is very shallow - you cannot swim. Kiwengwa beach, next door (10 minutes by car) is much better, more lively, with many shops and good hotels.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, this hotel was perfect. From the welcoming staff, stunning sea view room, all the small touches: wine on arrival, massages included, paddle boarding the yoga just everything was simply amazing. John at the bar was the best and the lady who done guest relations was incredible she catered to our late check out and even offered us take away breakfast when she knew we had an early safari day - all very special

It is challenging to find an accommodation that can meet both kids' and adults' expectations and TOA Hotel was able to meet our needs and expectations. Their food, from breakfast to dinner, was scrumptious. They also have different entertainments, including dinner by the beach. Their staff is amazing, from the cleaners to management. Very friendly and always willing to help with a smile.

Nice place, had better stays in three star hotels on the island, but it was absolutely ok. The prices for food and drinks at the pool are way too high, so support the local people for drinks around.
