Amazing hotel. Very green! Friendly staff, everyone cares about you and try to do your holiday really excellent. Tasty food (there are no so many options but everything is delicious) and beautiful view from the hotel restaurant! There are many boats with fishermen so can see a real local life, many locals come there for n the evening to buy a fish (so interesting!). There were always free sunbeds, so you do need to care about it (like in some other hotels). Communication is great. Wifi worked mostly good (even on the beach). Everyday cleaning was great!

The hotel is conveniently situated on a road lined with various restaurants and food shops adjacent to the property. There is a direct road from the hotel to the main beach, which is only a 4-5 minute walk away. The hotel is small and comprises of nine cozy-modern rooms and a top-floor dining area boasting a splendid view of the entire Kendwa area. I was impressed by the team's exceptional hospitality and willingness to assist with anything I required during my stay. As a working traveler, reliable internet is a must, and I'm pleased to say that this hotel delivered on that front.

We ended up staying only one night and they were very kind removing the charge from the second night even though the cancellation period was over. Super clean and comfortable bed and room. We arrived at 4am and the check in was very smooth. They’ve also arranged the taxi with better price than what is offered at the airport. 5min walking to the beach. Next to a market and many shops around. Go here, no doubts 🙃

    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. 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.

    Kendwa being on the north side of the island and close to Nungwi is great for travellers who enjoy a festive party vibe ,there are many pubs and resorts that are always having fun functions, there are many water activerties to enjoy eg: sailing, fishing, diving, kayaking,snorkling and many more, Kendwa also bosts a sky diving club and horse riding,for those who enjoy self driving the roads are in good condition from Stone Town I would however sadjest using the back route via Tunguu excellent roads and sceanic forestation.

    In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location.

    In general, the hotel was okay, with an excellent location. However, there were some issues to address: The breakfast had a good variety of food, but unfortunately, warm items were cold. When I requested my sausages to be reheated, they were returned cold, accompanied by a surprised question about wanting them hot. It would be better if the staff anticipated the preference for warm breakfast items. The bed was so uncomfortable, causing back pain every morning. I tried all sides of mattress, and anyways there was a pit regardless of the position. This might be specific to only my bed, but it needs attention. The restaurant offers good food at reasonable prices, and the waiters speaks good English and are polite ( except trainees) Cleanless! Room was clean and tide, but there were several diferent bugs around, but its Africa, you just need to ask to spray your room for bugs (i asked but they never did) and you need to ask for wc paper and ask for clean towels. Water pression in the shower and hot water was very good. Unfortunately AC didnt wor for last 2 nights. I guess a gas just finished, but noone came to check on it, just excuses about low voltage. Well, when voltage was low even fridge was not working, bet when voltage restored AC and fridge worked excellent. Water got frozen in the fridge in 1h - so thats not a low voltage at all. Despite the issues, I tought I would consider to come back, but after last 2 nights struggles, I doubt about it. Particularly I would suggest a room with a sea view and small private pool, keeping in mind that perfection may not exist in every aspect, especially in a place like Zanzibar.

    We loved the location of this hotel! Kendwa beach is very nearby and it's easy to walk there. La Fontana has a great deal with Kendwa Rocks hotel for the guests to use their sunbeds on the beach. And the beach is amazing!! Far better than Nungwi and maybe the best beach in whole Zanzibar. Futhermore the staff in La Fontana was very friendly and helpful. We also loved our room, which was spaceous, clean and had ocean view. We stayed here one week, but could have stayed longer!

    The garden was lovely and each room had terrace which was really nice. Rooms were clean and good size even for 3 people. The host was so welcoming and lovely. breakfast was good and versatile. Stayed there for one night because we went to full moon party and we were so glad we found out this hotel. Location is amazing (about 5 minutes by feet from kendwa rocks).

    This is the best hotel in Zanzibar : we stayed in 5 different hotels during our stay in Tanzania and this one is undoubtedly the best. The location of the hotel is beautiful, the view is great, and the staff is top-notch. The food is excellent, especially the seafood pasta, a delight. I recommend this hotel 1000%
