Everything was amazing. It is such a beautiful resort with amazing staff, comfy beds, delicious food (excellent quality, best buffet). The shampoo, conditioner, soap, body lotion in the rooms smelled so nice. The hotel managers were so attentive and kind and welcoming. The grounds were also beautifully planted with lots of lush colorful greenery. I also enjoyed the ambient music they had playing.

Pongwe Beach Hotel is embedded in a beautiful tropical garden and situated right at the beach. We‘ve loved its secluded location, the beach is not accessible during high tide and that means that you don‘t get bothered by beach boys as much (rarely ever, to be honest). We‘ve had a beach front room that was literally a stone‘s throw away from the beach, it couldn‘t have been any more convenient! The room was spacious and spotless, also our 14yr old daughter had a full single bed to use. The turn down service in the evening is something you don‘t usually see in that category, so we were pleasantly surprised. Another nice touch is the option to order early morning coffee / tea, that gets quietly delivered to your terrace from 07:00 am onwards, so as an early bird you can enjoy your first cup of coffee on the daybed of your room terrace and enjoy the wonderful beach view whilst others are still sleeping. We‘ve booked half board and were not disappointed - the menu was very diverse, each day you could choose between meat / fish / vegetarian options for your main course. There‘s a buffet twice a week as well, plus evening entertainment on 2 days, we‘ve enjoyed both very much! The staff is most welcoming and attentive, no matter if housekeeping, restaurant, reception….as a guest you feel your presence is appreciated and every wish is taken care of. I usually never book 3-star hotels, but with this one got tempted because of its exceptional reviews - and they are all true, so can highly recommend and would definitely stay there again!

I usually dont write long reviews but this time I have to. Milele Beach Resort is the place where you really enjoy your holiday, where you can rest, chill and feel relaxed. The place is beautiful, designed with style and passion. It's placed on an amazing beach. Lisa the owner is very friendly and open person, thinking about everything. She took us by her jeep to the village for shopping. Her son Niccolo is a manager with big heart, he is very friendly and professional, always trying to help you. Valeria and Bruno the restaurant managers are great and so kind treating you as a friend. The whole staff are very professional, smiled and you feel that they care about you. Especially Theresa and Omar were amazing. Our room was cleaned every day, fresh towels, bottles of water, tea&coffee. They really care about their guests. The place is literally on the beach so it's a really high score for Milele that even on very tough nature conditions they make it happen 10/10. Respect. The restaurant is great, dishes are delicious and fresh, same as the breakfast. Homemade jam, fresh juices, chef prepares omelette etc. Everyone will find something for themselves. Me and my Wife spent 10 days here and we highly recommend this place, we are lucky we chose Milele Beach Resort. If you plan to visit Zanzibar this is the place.

So first of all after reading a lot of reviews a was expecting a really really horibble road to the hotel from the main road like a good 15 min. It was really not bad at all .... We were greeted at reception by Glory who was very kind and helpfull throughout our stay. We also had the pleasure of meeting Moses & Thomas who carted our things to our over water villa and were a pleasure to speak with during our stay. Our room was amazing! Everything and more. It is very large and well equiped we were worried about the boats passing by after reading reviews on here about it however we only experiance it a few times mostly early morning fishing boats and sunset tourist boats. The over water villas have the option to eat at the main restaurant or at the private restaurant on the dock. James was an excellent host and the food was excellent. My husband is a picky eater and they accomadated all of his requestes as well as mine being a vegetarian who is lactos intolerant.

Michamvi is located approximately 65 kilometers from...

Michamvi is located approximately 65 kilometers from Forodhani, and the journey can feel quite long—particularly if you have just arrived in Zanzibar. The drive is somewhat uncomfortable due to the condition of the road, which consists largely of worn, uneven tarmac. Additionally, the area lacks local street food options, leaving nearby hotels—most of which are high-end and expensive—as the primary dining choices. As someone who genuinely enjoys the rich and flavorful cuisine of Stone Town, I found the food in the area to be rather bland and not reflective of its price point.

Please remember that Marumbi is a Village in a poor third world country and therefore there is very little to do. A few local shops. A couple of local Restaurants (We loved Bustani), no bars and a hotel that doesn’t welcome outsiders. If you are looking for nightlife it’s probably not for you.

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.

This area has less tourism than some other areas in Zanzi bar, it has what you need, different restaurangs, a super market, beachbar and so on. There is not so many other tourists here so you feel like its really a part of an small island. If you are looking for highend dining and alot of shopping then i advise you to look for another area or do as we did - get a car or a taxi its ok priced for a full day. The traffic was really suprising - its was better then most so called modern countries - slow, keeping distance -respecting each other - we rented a car for 3 days and it was super nice. We payed 30usd/day + 10usd for the local driving license - dont drive to fast or drunk - the police are really on there toes - and mind the big roadbumps... We ate a lot of lobster and fish - always fresh - never dissapointed, we also ate alot of vegetarian food - its everywere great dishes.

The location was excellent.

The location was excellent. The vegetation was very nice, and the seating places were very comfortable. Following my unfavourable interaction with cats, we were upgraded to a bigger room with an ocean view since I have ailurophobia (cat phobia). Thanks to the hotel owners for such a gesture. We had an issue with our bank card, and they also gave us more time during our stay to sort this out. Disliked · Being an Ailurophobia (Cats phobic), I did not enjoy the outdoor space because several cats roamed everywhere, including the restaurant, balconies and stairs. This has nothing to do with the owners but my personal condition. I advise those with similar conditions to avoid this place. Areas of improvement include breakfast - more food diversity and a balanced diet are needed. The beds in the rooms need to be fixed to avoid noise. Bathrooms need upgrading.
