I am from Houston,Texas and This was my first time vacationing in Zanzibar. I will say I got the best hospitality at VOI Kiwengwa than any other places I have been to outside America. The resort was awesome, the management was very helpful and listen to your concerns, OMG the staff are the best. The food and drinks was great. I highly recommend this resort to anyone that need a great vacation spot in Zanzibar Tanzania. I am surely taking my wife back to this resort every year. Is now my number one vacation spot in Africa. Thank you VOI Kiwengwa for the great hospitality especially Daniel and all the guys at the bar. You guys made my vacation the best

I had a wonderful stay and felt very safe, welcomed and taken care of by staff and management. The property is beautiful with authentic Tanzania architecture, intricate craftsmanship details and exotic decor while providing all the modern amenities and fun of a great all-inclusive resort / Italian Club. Plenty of bottled drinking water, nice bar drinks and wonderful food at the main restaurant. The property is gorgeous with meticulously maintained tropical gardens leading to the wonderful huge pool and exotic beach with plenty of comfortable loungers. The rooms are beautifully decorated and reflect authentic interior while having everything one needs for rest and relaxation. Special thanks to Philippo in management for accommodating my late arrival and to Omar for the great sign off. Wonderful live music by very talented Alessio performing Italian and English hits nightly. The entertainment team was so hard working around the clock and very attentive. Great shows! Nice group of guests at the resorts from different countries, great vibes and so much fun! Hope to be back! Thank you all!

It was on the beach. Lots of sun loungers and staff to help move them when required. Mostly geared up for Italian visitors as it is an Italian hotel. Would be nice to have had access to local tv programmes to give authentic feeling.

Good for beach, bad for food/drinks
Amazing beach. Great staff (locals and Italians). Comfort rooms. Bad food, bad drinks. Too noisy with loud animations (all-inclusive style). If food and drinks significantly improve, this can get to a 9/10.
