Located in Kiwengwa, a few steps from Kiwengwa Beach, Z-Lodge Zanzibar provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. With a bar, the 4-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The accommodation features room service, a 24-hour front desk and currency exchange for guests.

I really like Zlodge, I am a traveling content creator and found a really good deal with Zlodge, I stayed in the superior room right on the beach, the owner is someone special who spends a lot of attention on detail and the kitchen, you can see the work done on their Instagram page. @z.lodge.zanzibar. It was instant chemistry with the place, the food, the people, the views, and the owner. I could not be happier with selecting this place, you can truly admire the effort that goes into making it special for the price they ask, I would say this is a steal, if it is available just take it. You can always travel from this village to other parts of the island because of its central location. Recommended stay time minimum 3 days.

ARYA Boutique Resort has an outdoor swimming pool, a bar and shared lounge in Kiwengwa. A few steps from Kiwengwa Beach and 24 km from Kichwele Forest Reserve, the property provides a private beach area, as well as a garden. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, room service and currency exchange for guests.

Our stay at Arya Boutique Resort has been an absolutely amazing experience! This was a trip to celebrate our honeymoon and we were certainly treated like royalty (which I saw so many others had stated in their reviews and yet my expectations were still exceeded!). The staff were ever so polite and genuinely willing to assist when we needed something. The cherry on top was Laura's kindness, generosity and transparency of her personality. We felt so comfortable and were incredibly spoiled by Laura and the staff. This truly was a hearty experience. Arya Boutique Resort is a very special place indeed. I would highly recommend it.

Located in Kiwengwa, White Dream has a garden and a terrace. The property features a bar, as well as a restaurant serving international cuisine. Free WiFi is available and Vera Club is 500 metres away.

We stayed 5 nights on this hotel and it was such an amazing experience. First of all, perfect location just in front of the beach with sea views. Chilling and relaxing guaranteed 200%. Pool with direct access to the beach and close to the pool bar. About dining, the breakfast was nice and complete, specially we loved the pancakes and fresh fruits. For lunch or dinner they have homemade pizzas in charcoal oven and fresh sea food (best lobster in the island). I would like to mention Peter from the pool bar for his hospitality and amazing cocktails. Rooms cleaned and tidy every day. Last but not least, the staff is incredible how they work and how friendly and professional they are. We will back very soon. Highly recommended. Asante sana.

    This is a beautifully located property right on the beach front. Angela and Mr Karrim are absolutely stellar host. They are very accommodating and welcoming. We arrived in the early hours of the morning with no check in issues. The daily entertainment was quiet nice.

    The hotel is located at the quieter end of the beach and room was located right on the beach so it felt like you had your own private beach. We really liked the front patio and hammock.

    We liked everything, from the wonderful, smiling and always helpful hosts and staff, through the amazing space around the hotel, wonderful massages, to the restaurant, the view of the ocean and our favorite outdoor bed right on the beach. It was a pleasure to spend a week of our vacation there, we felt like at home. We hope that we will be able to return there again.

    Unlike most other resorts this one is right on the beach, there is no barrier between you and the ocean. And since it’s a small place the beach vendors (who are everywhere on every beach in Zanzibar) tend to focus on the beach stretches of the bigger resorts. This is a huge advantage. Food is great, staff is friendly and welcoming. Walking up and down the beach it was super evident that this is the best place for kilometers both up and down the beach.

    The first thing I want to mention is the lovely staff, very friendly and attentive. Location right on the beach. You can watch the views of the ocean, having breakfast or relaxing on a sunbed. Good cuisine at reasonable prices in the hotel restaurant. So, if you are looking for an atmosphere of complete relaxation and tranquility, this is the right choice.

    Very good food, everyday different and the hotel is very well located, right on the beach. The ocean itself was also very good to swim in, no rocks, which you find sometimes in Zanzibar. Besides, the staff is very friendly, Stella and Harry from the reception are very welcoming and there is everyday some other entertainment to do or see.

    Bahati Villa was wonderful from the moment we arrived. They have very clean rooms with A/C and the staff are very friendly. Their private beach area is very comfortable and provides some escape from the loads of people trying to sell you something on the beach. Although the rooms are not on the beachfront, they are shaded by a beautiful tree which has many birds, bats and thick-tailed bushbabies. Our absolutely highlight here is the breakfast which is amazing!

    We had such a delightful stay. When you arrive you get a warm welcome from Ivana and the whole team accompanied with the most beautiful view of the beach and the ocean. We had a beautiful spacious room with a terrace. Also the comman area is really nice. The whole vibe is chilled. In the restaurant they have a really wide choice of traditional and european food. Also prosecco ;) The location in perfect, right on the beach. I would recommand this place to everyone who wants to totally relax. Staying there was truly a dream 💙
