KACIC “An Exceptional Stay at Pongwe Island Lodge – A True Paradise in Zanzibar!”
04 Aug 2025
We just returned from an unforgettable 13-night stay at Pongwe Island Lodge in Zanzibar, and we couldn’t have dreamed of a better place to unwind. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Margarita, the lodge manager, whose kindness and professionalism truly reflect the quality of the entire team. After our third night, we were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary upgrade to a stunning villa with ocean views. This gem was tastefully decorated in local style, featuring Maasai statues and traditional masks — a true immersion in Tanzanian culture. The villa was spacious, beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and well maintained. The lodge is located on a private island and features only six accommodations, offering absolute peace and total privacy. If you're looking to escape from the noise and crowds and fully reconnect with nature, this is the place for you. The staff was incredibly attentive. Whether it was Raphael, Juma, Anna, Irina, Susana, Ignas, Charles, Amani, the housekeeping team, the security staff, or the kitchen crew — everyone contributed to making our stay seamless and special. A special thank-you to the Chef who went out of her way to create diverse and high-quality meals throughout our long stay. When we mentioned we’d love to have Red Snapper, she and the team went above and beyond to prepare us a truly memorable dinner. Margarita even surprised us with a complimentary day trip to the Gold Zanzibar Beach House in Kendwa, a magical experience that was a true highlight of our trip. Everything : excursions, transfers, recommendations, was organized wonderfully. You simply get to relax and enjoy every moment while being guided by a caring and professional team. We 100% recommend Pongwe Island Lodge to anyone seeking authenticity, relaxation, personalized service and a paradise setting. The combination of comfort, understated luxury, and cultural richness is rare and precious.
Zoe-marie “BEST TRIP EVER THANK YOU!!!”
16 Jun 2025
We recently stayed at this wonderful island retreat in Zanzibar as a family of six, and it exceeded all our expectations. Each pair in our group had their own individual lodge, which gave us the perfect balance of privacy and comfort. The rooms were spacious, clean, and beautifully designed — a real home away from home. What really made our stay special was the staff. Every single member of the team was warm, welcoming, and genuinely cared about making our experience exceptional. They went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The birthday surprises organised were out of this world! Thank you all so much! We loved yoga! The lady facilitating was amazing and it was such a great experience! The food was another highlight — fresh, delicious, and full of local flavor. From breakfast to dinner, every meal was a delight. We had an amazing time and would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Zanzibar, whether you're traveling as a couple, with friends, or as a family. We can’t wait to come back!

Lovely location on a small island connected to the mainland at low tide. Rustic but pleasant bungalows.
