The rooms were cleaned well, the poster bed was made up in the evenings. The hotel is located on the far end of Kendwa beach, so can provide quiet atmosphere

I have stayed before a year ago, and stayed in the forest room this time, which was renovated and so fresh and slick inside. The beach is amazing at low and high tide, and those magical sunsets. The staff down in the restaurant and bar are amazing so attentive and friendly and that bar on the beach is lovely.

In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location.
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

Serene grounds, welcoming staff and very courteous to clientele. Food was good (seafood) and the rooms are superb ( got an ocean view facing the tennis court.

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.
This is a budget 2/3 star hotel so just keep your expectations real. For the reasonable price you get access to the awesome beach, where low tide is not an issue unlike in other parts of the island, full sea view (choose high floor) and spacious room.
We stayed with a family of four in 2 interconnected rooms with a fridge and kettle. Modern bathroom, hot water and AC. They have their own generator so you still have electricity and water during shut downs.
Great hospitality - thank you Alexey!
If swimming in the ocean is important for you without bothering about the low tides - Kendwa is the best location to choose. The hotel is very simple yet there is some undeniable charm about it - we stayed in the deluxe room with garden view and the feeling that just as you leave the room you step on a sand was amazing. The hotel restaurant was good for Zanzibar - food quality was acceptable. Next to the hotel there is a water sports center where you can arrange various activities.
The hotel is at the best beach location. Long walk on the beach in front of many other hotels is possible unlike at other parts of Zanzibar. Many cute little local shops are near just a minute away. All kinds of fantastic water activities and boat tours are right in front of the hotel. The beach is clean and can swim any time, unlike in other areas where you have to wait for high tide not to hurt yourself on the corals. The hotel pool is also very pleasant.
This Hotel was good for 3 reasons:
* Mustafa - what an absolutely nice host and excellent manager. He went above and beyond and was available via whatsapp to answer questions about literally everything. Great guy, Thank you, Mustafa.
* Air Conditioning - Zanzibar is hot. HOT! And the much need air conditioning is there for you. It is very powerful and had no outages. What a blessing.
* Security - I felt rather safe inside the building.
Location right in front of the beach, with a private area where you can be fully relaxing;
Big and clean room, with a lot of privacy and silence;
The Essence restaurant, with tasty food, great variety and good prices (we ate there every meal)
The best buffet breakfast we had in Zanzibar
The staff, so nice. It was my boyfriend's birthday and they even offered us a cake while the restaurant staff was singing the Jambo song
Generally its a really good place. We had wonderful stay there. It is just right on the beach. A lot of sunbeds. Really nice breakfasts. Friendly Staff. This part of the beach is the best one on the west Coast. Water is amazing.
Zanzibar is expensive but if you decide to go there, choose Kendwa rocks. I checked few other places and cost wise it was best option in Zanzibar (I took the cheapest room)
Everything is simply perfect about this accommodation: location is great, stuff is very welcome and supportive, clean in the room and at the beach, great security all over the hotel (rooms, territory and coastline), very beautiful everywhere and food is amazing 🤩
If you will see the deal with half board, don’t hesitate, just take it!
Everything was great! Accommodation quality is amazing for Zanzibar standards but the best thing about this place is Villa's staff, especially Dula. He will help you with EVERYTHING and go the extra mile each time. Location of the place is also great, 4 minutes to the beach, loads of shops and cafes around and it feels safe
The place is nice clean and very peaceful I definitely enjoyed the stay also sophia is very nice and helpful we wanted an early breakfast she made it for us I strongly recommend,, the location also very close to the beach there is many supermarkets near to the hotel and also restaurant,, definitely happy 😍
-Genuinely great hotel, nice beach, food and service. Quite like it actually and would return should I come to Zanzibar again
-Suggest opting for an all-inclusive option - it is worth it and the guys here make great cocktails
cozy hotel , few steps to the amazing beach , great service and great value of money , the breakfat the food , also they offer sunbed and pool , rooms are nice and clean we get a great service , thanks guys
Salama house is close to Kendwa beach, just 10 min walk. Adriana and Salu are great. Always ready to help. They make family atmosphere.If you stay in this house you can feel real Zanzibar
