My stay at Canary Kendwa Beach Resort was one of the most beautiful vacations I’ve ever had. Everything exceeded our expectations from the moment we arrived. The resort is perfectly located on the stunning Kendwa Beach, with crystal-clear turquoise water, soft white sand, and breathtaking sunsets every evening. Swimming in the warm ocean was an unforgettable experience. Our room was spacious, spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The bathroom was modern, and housekeeping kept everything perfectly clean throughout our stay. The staff were exceptional—friendly, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. No request was too much, and they made us feel welcome every day. The food was delicious with plenty of variety, and the beachfront bar served amazing cocktails at great prices. Enjoying drinks while watching the sunset was one of our favorite moments. We also loved the daily activities and evening entertainment. Playing table tennis and watching the international shows made every night fun and memorable. The reception team was always available and very helpful whenever we needed assistance. Canary Kendwa Beach Resort offers the perfect combination of relaxation, beautiful scenery, excellent service, delicious food, and a wonderful atmosphere. We created unforgettable memories here and can’t wait to return. We highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting Zanzibar—it truly deserves 5 stars!

9.8/10 Exceptional! (24 reviews)
We visited The Island at Pongwe as the final stop on our honeymoon to Tanzania and Zanzibar and it was the perfect way to conclude an incredible trip. Set on a coral island just off of Zanzibar, the Island Pongwe is run by the amzaing Michela and her team. The island feels like pure rustic luxury and prides itself on being as sustainable as possible - they source food and materials locally. The service was amazing and we were greeted by the team who showed us to the Villa - a room with an incredible vista of the Indian Ocean. We were also kept company, by the islands dog, Ara, who was so sweet. The team were very helpful in organising a Dhow sailing experience with the local fishermen/sailors. At low tide you are able to walk out towards the reef - just watch out for sea urchins! The food was incredible and tasted so fresh. We were also lucky enough to be treated to a performance by local Masai on our final night. 10/10 - would definitely recommend even at least 1 nights stay here - it's so worth it for this little slice of paradise.
