The place was clean and loved the owner, we had a great chat and drinks.

Breakfast very delicious, with few options

“Beautiful beach front and ocean. Nice staff. Definitely returning soon.”

Spacious rooms. Beach front. On the beach. Sense of freedom and peace. Beautiful.

The staff are amazing! I felt like a royal!

“Relaxed place to unwind and enjoy kite surfing.”

We extended with a week. Wonderful place with great staff.

“This was the best venue we ever stayed, excellent service, food, venue and location.many thanks to everyone!”

Everyting, the villa, the excellent servicd, food, location etc etc

No towel service - breakfast continuously missing items And way to overpriced for what it is

“Wonderful- I will be back”

Amazing. Spacious and private. Absolutely perfect location on the beach

“Hidden gem in the shades (Kivuli), best place to stay in Paje.”

Relaxed atmosphere, kind staff, great combination with the kite school. In the morning the bed is made and in the evening the curtains are closed and protective spray against mosquitoes is applied. Wonderful service. Close to Paje and all restaurants, but not too close to keep its tranquillity. Great food in the restaurant. Walking distance to the supermarket for extra water and anything you need. Amazing to have the cottage with sight to the ocean. As the main entrance is being build we were able to book it for a good price.

Only the location which is right on the beach

“Wonderful”

Everything was good!

“Kivuli resort felt like family away from home. What a lovely experience.”

Loved staying here. Staff are amazing. Close to the beach. Massai security and It’s peaceful and close to Paje town and beach restaurants!

Kivuli is a beautiful and calm place with lovely bungalows and a peaceful atmosphere, especially in low season. Some bungalows are more private than others, but overall the surroundings, the sea, and the location are excellent and still close enough to reach lively areas on foot. The staff is kind and professional, with special thanks to Daima for her warmth and effort at breakfast.

Location was great. Very accessible to the beach and restaurants and clubs around Paje Beach.

“Sensational”

Everything! The only way to describe the resort is paradise. The staff were absolutely amazing, they really did treat us like family and we’ll definitely be returning.

“Go somewhere else”

The staff tried hard to accomodate

“Wonderful time in a wonderful location.”

We spent a month here and had the most wonderful stay. The rooms are very spacious, with large, comfortable beds and high-quality furnishings. Each room comes with a safe, fridge, and tea-making facilities, and the bathrooms are big, modern, and work perfectly. Easy access to a beautiful beach. The staff are outstanding—friendly, cheerful, and always ready to help. From the waiting staff and chefs to the Maasai guards, everyone went out of their way to make sure we enjoyed every single day. Juan, the manager, is incredibly welcoming, helpful, and kind, and he brings great energy and fun to the hotel. We did come across a review suggesting otherwise, but that hasn’t been our experience at all. Of course, we never expected his duties to include removing a gecko from our room at 4 a.m.—what he does provide is genuine generosity and attentiveness throughout the day and evening, far beyond what you could reasonably ask for. Breakfasts are generous and high-quality, and the meals are delicious and well prepared. The chefs are always happy to prepare local dishes or their own specialties on request, which made dining a real pleasure. No wifi in rooms but we saw this as a positive. Disconnect properly and enjoy the Pole Pole lifestyle of Zanzibar. Overall, this is a great hotel with excellent staff, comfortable rooms, and a welcoming atmosphere. We would happily return. Thanks Guys. B+J

“The resort feels like a hidden gem in the making. Once all facilities are completed, it will surely become one of the mo”

Kivuli is a boutique-style resort that truly stands out in Zanzibar for those living kitesurfing, seeking nature, privacy, and an escape from the crowds. The villas are nicely spaced, surrounded by trees which gives a wonderful sense of intimacy. The beach bar is fantastic, and the kitesurfing school and team is friendly, and highly professional The staff overall is exceptional: warm, attentive, and always going the extra mile. Big kudos to William. The General Manager personally takes care to ensure guests feel looked after, and the owner clearly has a strong vision for creating something unique here. Small details like the evening bed preparation and mosquito spraying add to the comfort. A brand-new central pool has just opened, making the experience even better.
