This vacation was something special for us! We didn’t paid that much attention before the booking in regards to the beach. As we expected a sandy beach as we knew it from previous holidays. However it turned out that this was not that big issue for us as it got overcompensated many times by the hospitality of the peoples working there. It is hard to put it in words, you simply have to experience it. Two minor things are that it would be nice if the kitchen would offer a dinner plan which lasts for 10 days or two weeks, actually the food is repeating each week. However the quality and the kindness of the chef and the entire kitchen team is simply outstanding. The 2nd minor thing is the small bridge leading the way into the ocean. It is almost impossible, especially for older people to climb out of the water at the end of the bridge. But that should not be understood as a complain, it is just a small hint of how to improve further.

You need to take into consideration the feelings of your visitors....we do not like being targeted by people pestering us to buy from them every time we go to the beach. It really is a negative factor of visiting your wonderful island paradise....it spoiled it for us. Also this happened to us on other beaches in Zanzibar so not just a Pongwe problem....its endemic to Zanzibar.

Pongwe is an isolated beach, at low tide the sea is very far away and, even at high tide, it is very shallow - you cannot swim. Kiwengwa beach, next door (10 minutes by car) is much better, more lively, with many shops and good hotels.

Fabulous small hotel with 80 or so bedrooms. Rooms very well appointed as the hotel is very new (built in 2023). Staff incredibly helpful and polite especially the bar staff with Prince getting a special mention. Nothing was too much trouble and we were always greeted with a smile. Food was great with a varied choice every day. We had a fantastic holiday and thoroughly recommend this hotel. Beach nice and sea was incredibly warm when we were there although a lot of seaweed around.

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, this hotel was perfect. From the welcoming staff, stunning sea view room, all the small touches: wine on arrival, massages included, paddle boarding the yoga just everything was simply amazing. John at the bar was the best and the lady who done guest relations was incredible she catered to our late check out and even offered us take away breakfast when she knew we had an early safari day - all very special
