“We had an amazing stay at Kiwengwa Boutique Bungalows with our family including three young children. They serve an exellent breakfast with a wide variety, including fruit, pancakes, egg options and yoghurts. The play area next to the breakfast area made it possible for us to have a few quiet moment too as parents. The pool was also excellent for the children as it was provided with toys to play with and had a shallow part that was ideal for our toddler to splash around in. We cold borrow some buckets and spades to use at the beach that is just a short distance away. The restaurant on the beach was also excellent and they serve very good coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evening. The service was really friendly, the staff did their utmost best to help with the children, there were high chairs provided and our room had a cot with mosquito net on it. One of us became unwell and had to stay at the nearby clinic overnight and KBB staff were most accommodating and supportive during this time. We are very grateful for the staff to making us feel so welcome, cared for and at home to enjoy a great holiday at the beach. They did go above and beyond and that makes all the difference when traveling with young kids. I would highly recommend this place to friends and family and hope to be back one day.”

“- Le fait que ce soit un petit hôtel intimiste équipé de 12 (je crois) bungalows
- l’emplacement sur (pour moi) la plus jolie plage de zanzibar. Une grande plage 6 ou 7 km de long très propre (ce qui n’est pas le cas sur la plage de kendwa par exemple) calme, j’ai trouvé que la proximité d’un ponton menant au restaurant et discothèque « pontife » ajoute ajouté à la beauté de cette plage.
- les bungalow sont très confortables. Certains n’ont pas apprécié la literie très ferme mais nous avons très bien dormi, c’est calme et fonctionnel. Et surtout les bungalow sont pour 4 avec 2 chambres, ce qui étaient important pour nous avec 2 enfants
- le petit dej est bon
- l’hôtel propose une 1/2 pension très pratique en vacances avec des enfants et le restaurent de plage qui nous accueille midi et soir est très agréable, les plats sont variés et très bons
- Mention spéciale pour tout le personnel de l’hôtel qui est très accueillant, agréable et très souriant, on a passé un très beau séjour de 8j à leur contact
- et bravo à Irina qui gère son personnel et son hôtel avec bienveillance et efficacité. Merci”

“La struttura è perfetta sotto ogni aspetto: è difficile trovare difetti a questo bellissimo resort composto da bungalow sulla spiaggia di Kiwengwa!
Partendo dal check in, le ragazze della reception sono assolutamente fantastiche e sempre disponibili, così come tutto il resto dello staff (donne delle pulizie, camerieri, cuochi…). Ivana, la proprietaria, è una donna che ha deciso di vivere a Zanzibar con la sua famiglia e gestisce questo meraviglioso posto con competenza e professionalità. Il bungalow ogni giorno, durante le nostre escursioni, veniva pulito e i teli in bagno erano quotidianamente sostituiti. Ci hanno fornito anche il telo mare per recarci in spiaggia! La colazione viene servita sotto la bellissima struttura di legno adiacente alla reception: è in stile buffet ed è ricca di prodotti preparati dalle fantastiche cuoche che cucinano a vista. C’è anche frutta e verdura fresca e un’ampia scelta di bevande. Il ristorante, invece, si trova sulla spiaggia e anche qui i cuochi sanno il fatto suo! I camerieri e i barman sono tutti gentilissimi, Christian in particolare fa divertire e rende tutto più allegro. I lettini sulla spiaggia sono numerosi e comodissimi.
A proposito della spiaggia, vengono forniti numerosi servizi: massaggi (effettuati da una bravissima donna di cui purtroppo non ricordiamo il nome), yoga con la dolcissima Mara, sport di ogni tipo! Avremmo ancora molte cose belle da dire, come per esempio il fatto che ci hanno preparato una colazione da asporto a causa della nostra partenza a notte fonda. Dimentichiamo sicuramente qualcosa che per questo ci scusiamo, concludendo con un grande ASANTE SANA ❤️”

La spiaggia privata è molto confortevole e prospicente al pier. Una vera oasi di relax. La titolare, Sig.ra Ivana, sempre molto attenta alle necessità del cliente. Mi sono trovato molto bene.”

“Nous avons choisi cet établissement pour notre lune de miel après 1 semaine de Safari.
Notre objectif était de nous reposer et de profiter de la plage.
L’établissement est parfait car il propose beaucoup de choses différentes : gratuitement matériel pour faire du sport, volley, badminton,piscine, transat privé sur bord de plage..
vous pouvez réserver un massage un cours de yoga ou encore une excursion Safari Blue.
Le contact est super facile, ils sont attentionnés et gentils.
On est très heureux de notre séjour. Merci beaucoup.
Je recommande à 100%”
