We loved our stay in Kendwa Carletto Style. The bungalow was clean and spacious with a nice patio for relaxing with a book. The staff are really helpful and added little details to make our stay extra special. It was nice to get a feel for the locality on the short walk to the beach. At low tide you can walk over and back between Kendwa and Nungwi. If the tide comes in you can take a short taxi ride or water taxi. There is a really nice Italian restaurant with delicious cocktails on Nungwi beach. Can't remember the name but it's up some wooden steps, right beside the Mama Mia ice cream parlour(not the one at Kendwa Rocks)

Beautiful villas in outstanding tropical gardens. Servis of all staff was amazing. Whole hotel concept is unique to safe energy, water and local resources. Chef Beral in main restaurant allways come with new fresh and modern ideas for kitchen and meals. Beach is amazing here well maintained and you can find here quiet spot even beach is not whole private and there is also public part but massai security personal cares about guests and their privacy here. This beach is best on island when you are looking for no tide beach there is only minimum tide during day than other Zanzibar beaches. We loved also Spice garden. You don ‘t need to go to others on island - Zuri spice garden is better than other and include all plants and spice and you can enjoy it for free every morning with hotel guided tour.

The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are huge and it feels like home. Beautifully located on the beach and what makes this hotel so special is the presence of the manager and the amazing staff! We have rarely felt as comfortable as we do here and we have never experienced such an attentive and present manager and we have stayed in many luxury hotels. The staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and eager. Our flight was postponed to very late, the Manager Tuan Thasleem Juhara knew that we had to do our checkout the next day and offered us a free late checkout including dinner! We were able to stay in our room until late, enjoy our last day to the fullest at the beach, watch the last sunset, have a shower in our room and enjoyed our last dinner with no rush and then checed out. Simply fantastic and so generous! From the staff at the reception, in the restaurant, bars, gardeners, room cleaners to the manager they are all great and go the extramile! Thank you all for doing such a great job and making us fall in love with you! You really miss these people when you leave this place! Hakuna Matata!

My stay was perfect, in all possible aspects. Good location, on Nungwi road, quite easy to find, very convenient if you want to take boda boda or taxi to Nungwi beach, or other parts of island. Place is in Kendwa, thus Kendwa beach it is around 6 min walk, also very close to Kendwa main restaurant street. Staff is professional, friendly, welcoming, helpful, they made my stay lovely, also I felt safe during my stay. Food was exceptional, they take care of every detail. Room was spacious, clean, every unit has small private patio, nicely decorated, where I was able to have coffee and relax, enjoy beautiful garden. The pictures you see is exactly what you get. For me it was very important that I have good wifi, clean space, hot water, and no moldy areas in room. I would gladly repeat my stay here.

perfect location on the best beach in zanzibar. Beautiful:) loads of activities like boat trips, hair braiding, spa treatments, and all the water sports. not to mention the incredible sunset. We got the bungalow, right next to the beach with a plunge pool, and enjoyed it throughly. If we come back to zanzibar, will definitely book that kind of room again.
