“Good”
The house is pretty nice, room modest but it was fine for our short stay, the AC was really helpful due the hot weather, everything was nice and clean. Maybe the location is a bit hidden and the road that takes to the hotel a bit rough but good location close to the airport

“Fine for a short stay”
We stayed at the Kwale residence for one night, and it was conveniently close to the airport, which made it easy to catch our early flight the next morning. The beds were comfortable, and having AC and a kitchen was a plus. Overall, the Kwale residence was fine for a short stay if you're just passing through and need a place to sleep before your next flight.

“Just what I needed and the price was right.”
I was looking for a place to take a shower and get some sleep before flying out of ZNZ. It was perfect for that. Close to the airport. I will admit that it was difficult to get to. Overall I was happy with my stay.

“Amazing place close from airport”
Amazing place if you need to sleep close to the airport. Everything was super clean and the apartment had all the facilities that were advertised. I arrived early morning to Zanzibar and at night I had flight to Arusha. So I had to spend 1 day in Zanzibar and catch up some sleep. This place was perfect for this short trip. They allowed me to so check in at 8am, which I was very greatful for. I recommend this property for sure :)

“Couldnt locate the property”
Taxi driver drive around for 40mins and couldn’t find the property. Locals did not know this place existed even and directions provided by the property weren’t accurate. We were just looking for somewhere to stay on our final night before an early flight, did not need the extra stress this gave us to end our holiday!

We stayed here only one night before our flight, the accomodation was perfect for us, air con was working, hot water in the shower , the location wasn’t an issue in our case as we rented a scooter at the airport on our first day on the island it’s only 11min drive from stone and 6 min airport
