I stayed at few hotels in Zanzibar and here it is different - original bush has been saved , added flowers and endemic plants.African style architecture blended inside the garden , tastefully decorated rooms and some villas, each has different theme. I like the local arts around.Pool on the secluded beach , so wonderfully relaxing …Life slows down🌴☀️The cuisine is absolutely delicious. I enjoyed Zanzibar traditional music band

Everything was perfect! The staff extremely nice and helpful, the food was very tasty, there was every day a different choice freshly cooked. The room was calm, clean and comfortable.

Everything about this establishment is truly remarkable, from the owner, management, and security personnel to the talented chef. The culinary offerings are exceptional; I particularly enjoyed their traditional breakfast, Maharagwe and chapati, which was prepared to perfection. It was, without a doubt, the most delicious Maharagwe I have experienced during my visit to Zanzibar. This hotel, situated by the ocean, offers a serene and delightful experience, perfectly fulfilling my needs for this portion of my journey.

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.

Out stay at Pongwe Lodge was amazing. Such a well thought out space, absolutely stunning. Everything about the place was faultless. Our room was superb with a view to die for. The food was top quality but the best thing about the Lodge was the staff. They could not be more helpful and everything that they did, they did with a smile on their faces. I could not recommend the Lodge highly enough. We will definitely return!

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Pongwe Beach Hotel. Our room was amazing, with our own pool for a dip in the mornings, as well as a lovely pool. The size of the resort meant we never felt crowded at the pool or dinner facilities. The menu was amazing, dinner options changed daily and everything was ordered was delicious with fantastic, fresh produce.
