    Andrea · couple · 2026-08-05

    “The location was beautiful, a perfect flop and drop after our two week Safari. I loved the resort pool and walks along the white sandy beach. The menu offerings were great but the wine list was limited and mostly not available. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The room was spacious and comfortable, but the bathroom had some issues, no shower gel and a badly damaged bath. However, we had an enjoyable stay overall.”

  • Lovely, spacious rooms, friendly staff, in a great location in Paje

    “The staff were so friendly and I loved that the part of the beach the hotel is on is quiet and secluded but close enough walk to nearby restaurants and bars, the rooms were big and well equipped and very clean”

    “Kisiwa is an amazing hotel. It has a quiet and relaxed atmosphere with its own peaceful beach area, a large and clean pool, and a wonderful spa. It’s also just a short walk away from the main, busy part of Paje. The food is great with plenty of variety for breakfast and dinner. The staff is incredible and gives you truly personal attention-they even remembered my friend’s food restrictions at every single meal and made sure she had alternatives. The rooms are huge, with a nice sitting space and a great balcony. The whole property is kept perfectly clean by a dedicated team, and they tidy up the rooms twice a day. We had a wonderful stay and highly recommend it”
