This is a beautiful resort. The staff were incredibly kind and always welcome you with a smile. They have snacks and coffee/tea time throughout the day and the dinner buffets were fantastic. There is also a lot of activities like water aerobics, stretching, volleyball.
The only downside: people are allowed to smoke everywhere, on the beach, by the pool, the lobby, the chill areas. It’s really gross and very unhealthy for those who do not smoke.

The hotel is next to the beach, the beach is beautiful with white sand, and the hotel is quite large. The environment is OK, there are two bedside restaurants, one buffet restaurant that I didn't try and it looked average, and the other a la carte restaurant. It was also average. The room was normal and not luxurious, and there was nothing to see near the hotel. Stay here to enjoy the beach, don't expect as many shops as in Stone Town

"I stayed at this hotel for just one night, which unfortunately didn't give me the opportunity to explore all the facilities. However, I did get to experience the beach and restaurant. The hotel is beautifully designed and definitely deserves a longer stay. The main reason for my short visit was to explore this side of Zanzibar island. While the beach was decent, it didn’t quite compare to the Nungwi beach, as the water wasn’t as clean and clear as on the other side of the island. Despite that, I would gladly return to this hotel, especially because of the incredibly kind and helpful staff. The overall experience was great, though there’s room for improvement when it comes to the food, and the room, while acceptable, could also benefit from some upgrades. In conclusion, it was a great experience, and I’d love to come back for a longer stay." One annoying thing in Zanzibar is the beach boys, as they call them, which will disturb you as long as you are using the beach, trying to sell you anything.

The Kiwengwa Beach Resort is a wonderful hotel complex with all kinds of recreational opportunities, from sports to spa. The hotel staff are really very good. They serve the hotel guests in a friendly and quick manner and all wishes are fulfilled - if possible. The food is excellent. There is vegetarian, meat and a large selection of vegetables/salads/desserts. The food was always replenished quickly. The food is freshly cooked and looks very appealing.The beach is wonderful. It is always cleaned and the hotel staff take good care of you. A small disadvantage are the many Maasai sellers, who are however kept at a safe distance by the hotel staff and there is good support here too. I can only recommend the resort, it was a wonderful holiday and we will definitely visit the resort again.

Sea very warm and relaxing when the high tide comes and a lot of very many people. White sandy beach you can only find in Africa something we really enjoyed. The gardens green and well maintained and watered everyday. Pools three in number you can choose where you want to be. Restaurants African, seafood, Rossini and main restaurant for all your preffered cuisine. Staff, the best you can ever find in the world.Very outstanding and friendly.
