Reviews and Ratings
Kiwengwa Bungalow Boutique Resort is a magical retreat, perfect for anyone looking for a cozy and intimate island experience. The bungalows are clean and comfortable, and the food is simply out of this world! The atmosphere is friendly and welcoming, thanks to the incredible hosts Domenico and Gertrude. However, I wish there were more variety in amenities offered at the resort.
My stay at Kiwengwa Bungalow Boutique Resort was absolutely magical! The intimate setting, combined with the attentive service from Domenico and his team, made for an unforgettable experience. The food was a standout highlight—each meal was a treat. The only drawback was that I wished I could have stayed longer to enjoy everything fully.
My stay at the resort was absolutely wonderful! The rooms are perfect, clean, and beautifully equipped, making for a relaxing experience. The service is top-notch, with the owner being very attentive and making sure every detail is perfect. The location is dreamy, right by the beach! The dining experience was exceptional, with delicious meals that were a highlight every day. Overall, the value for money is great, but it would have been nice to have some additional amenities.
I had an absolutely amazing stay at this boutique hotel! The atmosphere is so comforting and really feels like a hidden gem. The owner and chef, Domenico, is incredibly attentive, ensuring every meal is a delightful experience. The bungalows are cozy and unique, though they could use a few upgrades to reach true luxury. Overall, it's definitely worth the visit with outstanding service and delicious food, but there's a need for more modernization in the accommodations.
This boutique hotel is a true gem in Zanzibar! With beautiful bungalows nestled in lush surroundings, it offers a cozy atmosphere perfect for relaxation. The food is outstanding, as Chef Domenico showcases his culinary talent at every meal. The staff is attentive, and the intimate size of the resort adds to the charm. However, while the small pool is nice, it might feel a bit crowded at times during peak hours.
