Honestly the only thing I liked about this property was the staff at the front desk. They were nice and I never fail to appreciate good hospitality. Oh another thing is the location. If you want good access to water sports in Zanzibar, this place is good.

The location of this resort is amazing.
There’s life here comparing to other resort a little far from kendwa area.
The water in the beach is just right there as soon as you step out of the room not far.
Our stay was made memorable by Peter.
He was attentive to our needs. Ever warm and approachable.
He went out of his way to prepare a surprise romantic dinner which was so beautiful. We were short of words, indeed pleasantly surprised.
We were treated so well all through our stay.

In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location. However, there were some issues to address:
The breakfast had a good variety of food, but unfortunately, warm items were cold. When I requested my sausages to be reheated, they were returned cold, accompanied by a surprised question about wanting them hot. It would be better if the staff anticipated the preference for warm breakfast items.
The bed was so uncomfortable, causing back pain every morning. I tried all sides of mattress, and anyways there was a pit regardless of the position. This might be specific to only my bed, but it needs attention.
The restaurant offers good food at reasonable prices, and the waiters speaks good English and are polite ( except trainees)
Cleanless! Room was clean and tide, but there were several diferent bugs around, but its Africa, you just need to ask to spray your room for bugs (i asked but they never did) and you need to ask for wc paper and ask for clean towels. Water pression in the shower and hot water was very good.
Unfortunately AC didnt wor for last 2 nights. I guess a gas just finished, but noone came to check on it, just excuses about low voltage. Well, when voltage was low even fridge was not working, bet when voltage restored AC and fridge worked excellent. Water got frozen in the fridge in 1h - so thats not a low voltage at all.
Despite the issues, I tought I would consider to come back, but after last 2 nights struggles, I doubt about it.
Particularly I would suggest a room with a sea view and small private pool, keeping in mind that perfection may not exist in every aspect, especially in a place like Zanzibar.

The internet is going to tell you Kendwa has the most beautiful beach in Zanzibar....it has not....not at all....yes, the beach is nice and wide and white.....but there is no vegetation at all, it's full of sunbeds and umbrellas from the resorts/hotels....way to many traders and not much to offer than going up and down, only to then retreat to your hotel or some place with shade....if you come here for drinks or a party, fine, but don't waste all of your vacation here, when there are many other cheaper and more beautiful places on the island...

Kendwa beach in its self is one of the best I have been too and I have been a regular beach traveller worldwide for the last 40 years. The only advice I would suggest would be to vet the hotel thoroughly as sunseabar was not upto standard it advertised. Go out into local restaurants we tried 4 different ones all were superb so far superior to the hotel

Clean, small and quiet guest house right on the beach!
Clean, small and quiet guest house right on the beach! They welcome you with a delicious fresh tropical juice! It is nice to see local people and fishermen living just next door. In the other hand thou, the front sea is full of boats that make swimming a bit complicated. The staff is very kind. Rooms are sober but clean and furnitures are nicely wooden. Breakfast is in range(no buffet, no choice) but good. Very much recommended place. I would definitely return there.

Kendwa is the perfect beach holiday.
Kendwa is the perfect beach holiday.
This is the only area bot effected by tides.
The beach is wonderful and offers great places to eat. Kendwa rocks offers a great BBQ with live entertainment on Saturdays.
Room was specious and clean . Balcony was big and it was our favorite spot for chilling in the evening . Beach in front of the hotel is one of the best beach in the world . Plenty of sunbeds in the resort so you can always find some spot for yourself without the need to go early to reserve. Resort is secured with a couples of security so if you leave your staff on the sunbeds you feel safe , food was delicious , the staff are friendly , all in all it was excellent stay
- huge villas with two private pools and a big washroom
overlooking the bay
- 50 acres full of tropical plants with only 15 villas make the place very intimate
- the food is the best probably in the whole Zanzibar..the chef prepares everyday a new menu both for lunch and dinner
- the staff is extremely kind and helpful. You will be assigned a private butler who will fulfill all
your desires
- private beach with huge sunbeds and kayaks to use
The apartment is spacious. Ceiling fans in kitchen area and bedroom keep the temp comfortable. Amos checked on us every day, answered all our questions promptly, and occasionally left us a gift of fresh papaya from his trees. The apartment is situated away from the major tourist hotels, more in the "regular people" part of town, which we really liked. It was a brief walk to shops for food and a brief walk to the beaches, which are LOVELY!
Beautiful location right infront of the Beach, the hotel owner Al Pacino is the most sweetest person ever that contributed to my stay. His staff are all so lovely and helpful. I felt like home and extended my stay for another 3 nights. Breakfast views are unbeatable, food is tasty rated 10 stars for this property am definitely coming back. Thank you Al Pacino, All smiling John, Rachel and the hardworking chef who makes very tasty food.
This is by far the best resort in Zanzibar, everything was beyond our expectations. The beach and the views are absolutely incredible, very rich breakfast, extremely delicious food, very clean and luxurious villa and everything is TOP!!! The fire on the beach at sunset is brilliant and we felt very safe, the staff is really doing their best. Your only regret will be when you leave.
PS: we really loved yoga with Claudia
