everything was amazing, truly we had the best time. The security was there so we felt safe. Try not to get influenced by the negative reviews, I am so glad we didn't because everything was up to an incredible standard. We loved Coco such a cute addition but we are also big animal lovers. Good food, good breakfast options, clean beach with cool restaurants around. The masais were not intrusive, mainly just friendly guys. So happy we chose Karibu. The room with beach view was out of this world.

We had an amazing stay at Tikitam, the accommodation was spacious, romantic and exceeded expectations. The view was immaculate, the only slight downside was the rocky beach, but everything else more than compensated for this. The hotel treated us like royalty from the minute we arrived until we left. They arranged visits to a local village and school, which was unexpected but priceless. The food was excellent, and the chef was versatile if the menu didn't suit. Nothing was too much trouble. We are so glad we found this gem of a hotel.

    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.

    Stayed at the cliff villa with pool. Things we liked were the stunning location/beach, delicious food (we ate all our food at the hotel), spacious room with a comfy bed, very picturesque and well maintained property grounds and the service While the water at high tide is one of clearest and bluest you’d ever see and the beaches almost blindingly white, low tide is interesting in it own way and a great time to explore the sea. The hotel staff does an amazing job at ridding the beach of seaweed every day.

    The Island is a very unique place. Being a boutique hotel, since the beginning we were treated very well by the staff. Since it was our honeymoon we got a upgrade on our room to the best suite on the island and it was perfect. The restaurant there was very good and very well served. Staff was perfect.
