    Clean ish most of the way round but dated. Got upgraded to a superior - not an upgrade as room needed upgrading. Very poor service at the bars and meals. Menu uninspiring. Not much on site. This Hotel lives on its reputation which it sadly does not live up to. There are much better hotels nearby with just as good beaches which was its one redeeming feature

    Spacious private room. Good breakfast. Very friendly staff. Big hotel, but still with a charm. Beautiful beach with comfortable beachbeds. Beware that the area has a lot of resorts that don’t allow dining unless you are a guest.

    Nice hotel, with very nice staff and a good restaurant. Nice beach but we could do without all the "playing stuff" on the beach.

    During a recent break from a business trip in Dar Es Salaam, I decided to pop over to Zanzibar and spend two nights at the Kendwa Rocks Hotel. The resort is expansive and features an impressive variety of amenities and activities to keep you busy, making it a great choice for anyone looking for a dynamic beach vacation.It is worth noting for incoming guests that the property appears to be undergoing some massive renovations right now. Consequently, it is currently not in its peak aesthetic condition, and there are a few construction-related detours required just to get from one side of the property to the other.Despite the ongoing work and the minor navigation hurdles, the hotel serves as an excellent oasis to disconnect and lose yourself from the outside world for a few days. The disruptions are easily overshadowed by the hospitality. The staff members were each incredible—always friendly, helpful, and eager to ensure a great experience. Their exceptional service truly made a lasting impression. I thoroughly enjoyed my time winding down here, and if my travels ever bring me back to Zanzibar, I will absolutely book another stay at this hotel.
