I recently stayed at this wonderful hotel in Zanzibar, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The experience was amazing from start to finish. The hotel is located close to the beach, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing vacation. The rooms are spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing a very comfortable stay. What truly stood out for me was the garden – it’s beautifully designed and adds a serene atmosphere to the property. However, the highlight of my stay was the staff. They are incredibly kind, polite, and always ready to help. Their warmth and hospitality made the experience even more special. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Zanzibar. It’s a perfect blend of comfort, cleanliness, and exceptional service!

Poa Poa is a truly magical place! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely comfortable and relaxed. Our stay was wonderful, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Zanzibar. The staff's warmth and hospitality were exceptional. They went above and beyond to assist us with some travel issues (unrelated to the hotel), and we are incredibly grateful for their help. The food was also a highlight – every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. Thank you again for an unforgettable experience, and a special shout-out to Wiktoria and the other gentleman (whose name I unfortunately don't recall) for their outstanding service and dedication.

From what I've seen this is one of the best hotels on the island. The beach is with white sand, and the guards are keeping away the "merchants". The food was very good, and the whole hotel complex is absolutely not crowded.

    Kiwengwa is a perfect place to spend time with the family. Exquisit nature, kind people and the best food.

    I loved the colour, clarity and temperature of the water. The sand was so soft and almost white. I didn't like the hassle on the beach though. It was easier to stay at the hotel to avoid it. But that's not why you visit another country!

    Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest.

    Quiet part of the island with beach among the nicest. That meant fewer people and tranquility which was what I was looking for during that trip. The hotel was also exactly what I need. All the facilities (gym, massage, sports activities) + excellent food at a reasonable cost. And Fatma the day manager was great. A wonderful person and soul

    Beautiful place, right on the beach. Wake up to a Zanzibar sunrise and locals buying fish straight off the boats. Very calm and relaxing environment. Swim at high tide, and at lowtide you can stroll to a nearby sandbank. The pool is a huge plus, and the deck is made for short, relaxing naps. I would highly recommend this for anyone trying to get away from a resort type holiday, but still want the convenience of breakfast and cleaning service. Great service by the staff!

    We are an American couple who have been living in Tanzania for years. We booked confidently in this corner of paradise which is Kiwengwa, for us the most beautiful beach in Zanzibar. The villa was really good and it’s decor is lovely. The bed is comfortable (superb having the duvet) and the bathroom/shower is quite spacious. Although there were other villas nearby, ours was slightly secluded and private. The hosts really went out of their way to make our stay comfortable.

    Unlike most other resorts this one is right on the beach, there is no barrier between you and the ocean. And since it’s a small place the beach vendors (who are everywhere on every beach in Zanzibar) tend to focus on the beach stretches of the bigger resorts. This is a huge advantage. Food is great, staff is friendly and welcoming. Walking up and down the beach it was super evident that this is the best place for kilometers both up and down the beach.

    A well located, family-vibe resort popular with Italians, with its own beautiful private beach and beach bar serving delicious pizzas and cocktails. There were a generous amount of comfortable beach loungers with shade and shielding from constant beach selling. Breakfasts were delicious if standard and modest for Zanzibar. Food was generally very good.

The structure is a jewel, with helpful and always smiling staff for any need, and close to great restaurants, local shops and kite schools!
