Big difference in types of accommodation here , you pays your money and takes your choice. My choice would be the beachside makuti thatch huts, which are luxury compared to most. Plenty of little gripes, like the light bulbs blown, but they do have a generator and that is important on Zanzibar because of the frequent power cuts. You get... more

Don't stay here. Most people go here because it's the biggest name around, but it was horrible. The staff was rude and completely uncaring about any of our needs. We felt very unsafe and had two seperate occasions when people were trying to get in our room very late at night!! Horrible. We re-located after two nights to a hotel... more

We stayed here in late June/early July for 2 nights. We took a 'basic' room, which is exactly what it sounds like! The rooms have a bit of a storage locker feel but let's be honest you'll be spending all your time at the beach right? The rooms have nets and fans in them, and you also get a massive... more

Three of us stayed here for a couple of nights after climbing Kilimanjaro. I have to admit, they aren't very hot on replying to e-mails, so when we landed at the airport, I was rather worried as to whether we had a vehicle to pick us up or not. Luckily the taxi was there. It took just over an hour... more

Let me first say, Kendwa beach is beautiful and much nicer than close by Nungwie. The facilities at Kendwa Rocks are also nice. Nice bar, ok rooms, great beach location. The staff is, however, horrible. Staffwise Kendwa Rocks has got to be the most awful hotel I've ever stayed in. The staff is slow and ignorant at best. Some are... more

At Zanzibar I had wanted to stay at Kendwa beach as I had heard it was beautiful, and less touristy than many other beaches in Zanzibar. A taxi there from the airport was $45, took about 90 min. The three best sounding independent places to stay at Kendwa were Kendwa Rocks, Sunset Bungalows and White Sands Hotel – all offer... more

Sadly for all its write-ups, we were very disappointed in this place. The owner is cashing big bucks -$65pn for an overpriced backpackers which is not a backpackers. Nothing is being reinvested in the units to keep them up to standard, our bungalow Manda had a broken shower holder so one couldn't hang up the shower,head, the toilet holder is... more

La cosa positiva del Kendwa Rock hotel e' la posizione: si trova infatti su una delle spiagge piu' belle e... more
