It was not as busy as some of the other resorts. We were able to relax and enjoy the quietness, but could also enjoy the warm swimming pool and amazing views. The food was great. I would recommend booking all inclusive or full board.

A 5-star experience! The accommodation itself isnt a 5 star, it needs a little love and renovation, BUT the staff makes an extraordinary 5-star experience, especially receptionist manager Victor. We booked 5nights, half board, a family of 4. We came with an early flight, and arrived at the resort at 6.30 am, as a welcome a receptionist gave us a free-of-charge buffet breakfast. In our booking, we had an early check-in 10am, but the room wasn't ready on time, so Victor offered us a free buffet lunch. Finally when we got to our room at 2 pm- it was nice, spacious, and clean. Buffet breakfast and dinner have a good choice of daily prepared meals, desserts, and an excellent choice of fresh fruit. They have an option of free late breakfast and afternoon snack in the lobby for guests who have missed breakfast or lunch :). We spent New Year's Eve in the hotel, and the party was spectacular. The food, the entertainment, the beach party... They truly thought about every little detail. Truly recommend it and hope to be back :) <3

Everything was great, the resort looks better than in pictures. For us what stood out was the food, best food out of any other 5 star resort we stayed at. The italian chef did wonders, the fruits were amazing, the desserts were amazing. As a fan of panna cotta I ate here better panna cotta than in Italy.

Our stay in Bluebay has been simply top notch! The facility is amazing, every environment is so spot on...from the hall to the restaurant, to the pool and so on...Everything is kept with taste and attention to the smallest details. The restaurant serves high quality food mostly made with local fresh ingredients. Not to mention the staff : waiters, bartenders, Masai bellboys and the receptionists (to whom I'd like to dedicate a special mention...Those guys are true professionals, they never leave you alone and they are always there to meet each single request with a smile on their face. They are such a winning team! Those guys do a great job!). Highly recommended!

    Kiwengwa Beach Resort surpassed all expectations, and the outstanding service provided by Saidia at reception, along with Aied, Mussa, and Petro, elevated the experience to unparalleled heights. Their warm hospitality and attention to detail contributed to the seamless enjoyment of this remarkable resort. With its enchanting location and luxurious amenities, Kiwengwa Beach Resort goes beyond deserving a mere 5 stars – it's a destination that stands out for its excellence. Highly recommended for an unforgettable stay.
