"This was an amazing hotel! Great buffet style food and lovely staff. Beautiful ocean front Yoga studio. Small but acceptable gym. Pools were great. Happy hour on the upper deck was nice. Beach at low tide was good for walking but a lot of kelp. "

"Wonderful hotel. Would certainly stay again. "

"The beaches are not as beautiful and accessible throughout the day ! But that’s nature "

"Everything about this hotel was so great !!!!"

"Friendly staff, very obliging. Food great, room lovely, appreciated balcony for views."

"Loved the breathtaking views, service, room…The experience was everything to be desired except: - the vegan options were limited, however, upon request, we were granted. Also, they labelled items as vegan but they were made with milk. - I didn’t like that the cleaning trolly was parked outside my door for the duration of the stay. - I also didn’t like that in between the tiles in the infinity swimming pool was mouldy. "

"The hotel is an historic site in UNESCO world historic Stonetown. The shopping district and amazing restaurants are in the immediate area. The hotel is full-service and convenient to attractions around the island. It is on the beach and offers a good, full breakfast. The Gelato bar offered delicious, exotic choices. I really loved our stay!"

"We had a great stay at Pongwe Bay Resort! As soon as we arrived we felt taken care of and comfortable. We got to Zanzibar quite late but when we arrived we were welcomed with cool hand towels, our luggage was carried to our room for us, and our bed had beautiful hibiscus flowers laid on it. It was the perfect relaxing getaway! Prices were really reasonable, AC in the room was strong, and they arranged airport transfers for us which was convenient. WiFi was a bit of an issue- we had to go to the front desk in the morning most days and ask for the new password as they had to keep resetting it due to poor connection. The WiFi didn't seem to work in our room either so when we sent messages we had to go the main communal areas. Another small concern was when we wanted to explore the beach during low tide, as there were quite a few locals who would come up to us and try to take us on "tours" to find sea creatures or monkeys etc. They were always friendly and listened once we said we were not interested, but we felt bad always turning them all down. I didn't think it would be an issue since the resort has a "private beach," but we didn't like being followed around so it kept us close to the resort pool most days. Other than that though, we had an excellent time and would be back! :)"

"Beautiful resort. A must stay. You will not be disappointed. Food was amazing "
