I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and genuinely cared for. The entire team was incredibly kind, helpful, and always available. Their constant presence and willingness to assist made the stay feel effortless and personal — they’re just genuinely nice, caring people who clearly love what they do. The location is perfect: tucked away in a quiet, peaceful area ideal for a relaxing vacation, yet just a few minutes’ walk from all the vibrant spots and city life. It offers the perfect balance of serenity and accessibility. The rooms were in perfect condition — spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The views were absolutely amazing and added so much to the overall ambience, which was calm, elegant, and welcoming. Even the little touches stood out. Even without a breakfast buffet, every morning brought a new, delicious selection. You could really feel the care put into creating a fresh, varied experience each day. Most importantly, I felt completely safe and taken care of throughout my stay.

Our first stay at this resort was a wonderful one. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was very good. You get about six choices for breakfast and a fruit platter and juice of the day are included. There is a bar and restaurant on site that you pay extra, but we enjoyed both very much. Prices are reasonable. The sunsets are breathtaking, and the beach and ocean are easily accessible. Our room was comfortable and air conditioned.

This cozy beachside resort offers a peaceful, serene escape with exceptional service. The owner, Loay, is incredibly hospitable and always available on WhatsApp to attend to any needs including your meal order, excursion plans etc. (I have yet to see this service at another resort). Rufina, the friendly and attentive waitress, made every meal enjoyable. Unlike other resorts, this one has fewer hawkers, allowing for a more relaxed experience. It’s the perfect spot for relaxation, with a personal touch that makes you feel right at home. Highly recommended!

The hotel is new. We were walking by and it immediately caught our attention. Out of curiosity, we asked if it was possible to make a reservation, and to our surprise, we were offered the chance to stay as one of the first guests, as it had just opened for a test run before the official opening. The hotel is beautifully located – right by the ocean, surrounded by greenery, which instantly puts you in a relaxed mood. The rooms are spacious, very clean, and decorated with taste. The bed was very comfortable, and the terrace overlooking the garden and the water was perfect for a morning coffee. The staff deserves a special mention – always smiling and helpful. It’s the kind of place you just want to come back to. Comfort, peace, and beautiful views – I definitely recommend it!

    Zanzibar is beautiful and a very safe city.

    Zanzibar is beautiful and a very safe city. They have an organized transport system for tourists . I travelled to Nungwi beach and it was really a beautiful place. It was not crowded and the water was very clear and the water sports activities and so many . There are very many eateries all around . I would highly recommend Zanzibar.

    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.

    This is not a touristy location... it is off the beaten track... a village, by the sea, with an increasing number of resorts being added. I hope it does not lose its charm to the crowds. This is a quiet, special place.

    Michamvi is good for relaxing and enjoying . There are few vendors and they are not disturbing you and friendly. We stayed 25 days at Kikoi Boutique Resort and arranged all excursions on Zanzibar as well as a Safari with Sir Alex at Kikoi for reasonable prices and with good service . Their Cook Mister Mahaveer Sing is a real Master Chef and we enjoyed every meal he prepared us . Compliments to all the people working there. You made our stay unfogettable.
