Kendwa beach was definitely the best beach compared to...

Kendwa beach was definitely the best beach compared to Nungwi, especially the south part. Even in low tide it was easy to take a swim. Also the beach here is wider and feel less crowded. As on the complete stretch there were many people trying to sell you stuff but on the south part not so many ”permanent” sales people other than the ones having sheds. The Maasai roaming around are friendly but just say no with a smile and most will not be persistent in their effort to sell you something..

If you are looking for white sand beach with the best ocean waters and minimal tides, Kendwa is the best place in Zanzibar. The beach is the most spacious and greatest on the island and the village provides all the necessities you would need. With many tours and water activities offered on the beach you would hardly need to move anywhere else. It is also a walkable distance to Nungwi during low tide if anyone is interested in a more bustily environment.

The sea and beach with super soft and white sand are absolutely fabulous and relatively clean. I got bitten by sand fleas on my legs because I spend a lot of time in the sea and walked barefoot. There is a lot of informal trade on the beach by locals trying to sell something. Maybe even more so if you are a woman walking alone.

The location is great, just a minute from the ocean, there are a lot restaurants both expensive and very local ones, no issues with electricity, hot shower and air-con and the safe box. Card and cash payment is acceptable. Very safe to stay and walk around even at night, the owner is very kind and trustworthy. Very basic breakfast but it OK, no TV and fridge in the room, internet is breaking so often especially in the room, but it works perfectly at the balcony. It is very budget friendly and highly recommend it.

Long walks on the beach, swimming even during low tide.

Long walks on the beach, swimming even during low tide. Some attractions are quite far and transport is expensive. Safari Blue Tour, Swimming with dolphins and turtles, Stonetown and the Serenity Spa were awesome. The trip advisor at the hotel assisted with bookings.

Great location on the beach, very nice and friendly staff, large rooms, beautiful grounds with many coconut palms Unfortunately, there is a lot of small plastic waste and cigarette butts on the beach near the beach chairs. Noise, pollution and danger from reckless jet ski drivers. DANGEROUS & Pollution

Very nice location , good breakfast on the roof terrace. Good variety and possibility of different egg items. I opted for a room with private jacuzzi and enjoyed that very much. The beach bar restaurant was also nice after a day out or on the beach. I booket this hotel after being recommened from a friend and the fact that they have a generator as Zanzibar is famous for powercuts.

Staff were freindly, cooperative and helpful. location is perfect for sunset view and watersports. Breakfast boufet is rich, diverse, and delicious. Thier resturant couisines are delicious.It is the best one we tried in Zanzibar, but their prices are slightly higher, and, most of their couisine are western. It is a quite old hotel but facilities are in good condition.

The hotel is located on the best stretch of beach in zanzibar, not affected by high or low tides. Service is 5 star. The general manager tuan and his staff all make a tremendous effort in ensuring you get the best service possible. 5 star hotel, 5 star service, 5 star food, 5 star location.
