The cottage rooms are exceptionally good value for Zanzibar - they are spacious, right on the beach and incredibly private. The food is good and the beach is quiet without beach boys which is a huge plus.

The beachfront location is nice. Feels very secluded, which was a welcome respite. Most of the staff were welcoming and the food / entertainment was enjoyable. We also really enjoyed the massage!

This resort seems as if it’s brand new; every detail has been considered. The staff is stellar, going out of their way to make you feel welcome. The included breakfast is delicious and you are Literally steps from the beach.
I had a partial ocean view room and was upgraded for my last two nights- both rooms were great but the ocean view, which was visible from the bed, was great.
It’s a fantastic getaway location.

Lovely new hotel with very friendly staff. The Food and Beverage staff in particular were superb. We had a number of special dietary requirements and the Manager went out of his way to help us with them.

Don't hesitate to book this hotel wether you are a couple or travelling with children... If you like to be somewhere: that is more authentic than fancy, where you can walk and be barefoot on the whole property, where you are surrounded by a team that is kind and modest - clearly trying to give you the best experience possible. The room exceeded our expectations, way better than the photos would suggest. The new restaurant & bar: "The Club" is magical. Hope to be back soon.

This resort is absolutely stunning, all the way from staff through superb gastronomy, lovely surroundings, to cleanliness, etc... We stayed here in January, everyday different food menu, lovely drinks and high quality (we recommend all inclusive), everyday transfer to Kiwengwa beach managed by the hotel, visit to the nearby village and school and many activities...
We definitely recommend to everyone to come to this piece of paradise!
Every single one of the team is going above and beyond to make you feel welcome and enjoy the time staying here.
Thank you Vladka and The Team, take care and keep up the great work! Looking forward to see you again ❣️🏝

Very nice little paradise right by the quiet Pongwe beaches! The rooms are comfy, clean with all necessary amenities. The gardens and communal areas are well organised and beautiful.
Clean pool and the staff are very friendly.
The food in the restaurant is very delicious with lots of variety and the prices are fair.

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.

There is not much to do in the local area other than visit other hotel resorts. We did visit a local school to make a donation and I would advise bringing something with you to donate e.g notebooks, sweets, money

Small remote holiday village with the white sand beach but not having good beach maintenance (seaweed, some dirt on the beach). Little bit far from anything in Zanzibar (far from Stone city and airport, far from spectacular Nungwi and Paje beach). No bars, restaurants, shops and infrastructure outside the holiday resort due to remote location and low density of tourists.

At first sight you can say....what to do here ?....no shops, just some local fruits selling points, no crowded areas, less traffic than anywhere but more nature than anywhere around. It's exactly the opposite comparing with Paje. If you need a quiet, family friendly, uncrowded spot.....ask for Pongwe. And if you want to understand why I'm saying these....just go on Pongwe beach when low tide is there.

I did not visit Pongwe town.
I did not visit Pongwe town. I stayed in a luxury boutique hotel north of the town as I like a quiet holiday. The only problem was the tide leaving an unattractive expanse of muddy rocks. The hotel's pontoon helped with access to the sea when the tide was high.

The accommodation and restaurant in Weavers Lodge was outstanding and the beach was idyllic. The tide tends to be out until about 3pm (July/Aug stay) and there are some sharp rocks - if your feet are particularly fragile, water shoes are a good idea. We cycled to the next village - an enjoyable afternoon trip. Very friendly locals.
New, well-maintained, clean, nice pool, ocean right under your feet, very nice staff, Very affordable prices. A place for people who want silence, nothing more
Located somewhere... No entertainment, you can walk along the beach in 30 minutes to the place where there are 4 nice hotels where you can eat well, and there is also a hotel and restaurant of a small island. Check the prices before.... Not everyone will enjoy them
We really enjoyed our stay at Pongwe Bay Resort! The staff was very friendly and helpful. The outside areas were beautiful, close to the beach. We also enjoyed the food and the evening events organised by the Resort. Once I told them it was my husband's birthday on one of the days, they also prepared a cake and the staff put up a great show by signing the Happy Birthday song!
the location is marvelous
the staff are very professional in a friendly way
the food is yummy, you should try the special see food special platter and you can have a romantic dinner by the beach with roses and candles
they have a very delicious burger as well
you can do snorkeling at the hotel in their boat and you can book all the activities of Zanzibar from the hotel
Everything! The property is a hidden gem in Zanzibar! The staff are so welcoming and pays attention to detail in way that cannot be described, you just have to experience it. We absolutely loved that in this case Instagram is reality. At Karibu Beach Resort you are steps away from the beach, rich culture, excursions, amazing disappearing sandbanks, and inviting locals.
I stayed as a single person for an overnight visit. It was the perfect size and space for what I needed. Very clean and comfortable. I originally booked a single, but was upgraded to a double. I think it would have definitely on the small side if I were sharing that space it another person, though. The hotel staff was very kind and accommodating.
Very nice little paradise right by the quiet Pongwe beaches! The rooms are comfy, clean with all necessary amenities. The gardens and communal areas are well organised and beautiful.
Clean pool and the staff are very friendly.
The food in the restaurant is very delicious with lots of variety and the prices are fair.
Staff very nice and will do extra things to help. Generally peaceful, although some noise from neighbouring hotels. Nice having bushbabies around and lots of trees. Easy to chat with other people staying. Restaurant area is nice, next to the sea, good breeze from the sea to keep cool. Felt relaxed and safe.
We had a very warm welcome from the staff and everybody was very polite. The rooms were very nice and clean. The resort is beautifuly arranged and decorated. The pool is very good. Beach is right there, but be aware of tides on Zanzibar. Breakfast was very tasty and they offer multiple breakfast options.
The most special hotel I have ever been to.
The Island is a magical experience. The view changes every few hours and it is just beautiful.
The staff are absolutely wonderful and take care of every little detail.
Don’t hesitate book your reservation here!

A hotel with nice layout. You can see very well the low/high tide difference and it is beautiful. Nice and big pool. The staff at the restaurant - always smiling, made you feel also happy.
The staff is awesome, the restaurant is really great (people from other hôtels come for dinner). It's calm and very peaceful.
We felt in paradise during our stay in Pongwe Beach Hôtel
the big room and the palm trees are the best reasons to relax and enjoy the stay. the hotel has access to the beach of pongwee.
the service and the staff are very nice.
great food. The hotel staff was very nice and made sure to accommodate all our requests. The reef walk was awesome, and the massages are the best we have ever had.
