Das gesamte Personal war sehr aufmerksam und hat versucht jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen. Besonders möchten wie Saleh erwähnen, der unser 1. Ansprechpartner war, uns mit seiner netten Art und immer guter Laune umsorgt und verwöhnt hat. Des Weiteren ist die Küche zu erwähnen. Sie ist excellent und sehr abwechslungsreich. Die Hausweine waren allesamt hervorragend. Der Pool hat uns sehr gut gefallen, er war aufgrund seiner Größe sehr gut geeignet ein paar Bahnen zu schwimmen.
Das Badezimmer ist nicht mit dem Zimmer verbunden, und da offene Bauweise nicht klimatisiert. Das ist der Beschreibung bei Booking nicht zu entnehmen, da nur von teiloffenem Wohnbereich die Rede ist.

Looking for Peace and Harmony - Go To Kilindi!!
Beautiful Sunsets,
Perfect for Couples
Excellent presentation of the deliciously made food and to top it - you can have your food and drinks customised to your own liking! Outstanding service!
Not forgetting the designated butlers that ensure that you are comfortable and have all that you need to ensure you feel at ease.
Special Thanks to:
Manager Andre
Butler Daudi and Kilindi Team
Since it’s a very open property and located within the natural habitat - around the rainy season it gets a little busy with little crawlies and flies - check and plan accordingly.

An amazing location and one of the most personalised holidays I have ever had!

This was one of the most special and unique places I have ever stayed. The wildlife is just incredible and the views from our room and bathroom were breathtaking. Our butler could not have been helpful or accommodating. We absolutely loved it!
I loved everything, but if you’re not a fan of nature, you might struggle a little with the bathroom that is essentially exposed to the elements!

this place is GORGEOUS. we switched this resort after reading more reviews of Gold Zanzibar and decided on this place and I’m SOOOO glad we did. our butler Dudi was amazing. EVERYONE. was amazing. the staff here goes above and beyond. our only critique was that (1) the food needed salt - like legit every dish needed salt and (2) the tour when you first arrive was way too long. we were tired and just wanted to unpack and shower while the welcome tour was at least 45 mins. this place is such a hidden gem

We stayed at Kilindi for 4 nights for our Honeymoon and are still without words. Kilindi exceeded our expectation in every regard & if we could give more than 10/10 we would.
We were on an all-inclusive package, so delicious food (everything was so so so good & fresh) & great drinks all day (You have to try the Tropical Octopus Salad!).
The entire property was beautiful - very natural, flowers, butterflies, covered in jungle forest where you frequently saw playful monkeys, lizards & the rare elephant shrews (so adorable!).
Service was fantastic throughout.
The Villas were beautiful and set far apart, so each occupant had their privacy. The design was absolutely gorgeous! 2 private plunge pools, a beautiful veranda to watch the sunsets, a comfy lounge area and a beautiful separate open bathroom.
Our personal Butler Salum read each wish from our eyes and made our entire stay so special by surprising us with beautiful dinner options each day, bringing us breakfast & cocktails to our Villa & being super friendly but still very professional. One of our highlights was our private dinner on the beach with own exquisite Seafood BBQ prepared by Chef Emmanuel.
The entire Management was really great! Andre was super approachable and was very helpful, professional but also hands-on.
The beach is beautifully secluded in a dreamy fisherman's bay with honeymoon-grade beach furniture.
The Spa treatments are absolutely fantastic (you must try the Zanzibar Sprice journey)!
Self-speaking, everything super clean & the villa beautifully decorated with flowers each day by our housekeeper Flora.
We can absolutely recommend this place to anybody - especially if on your honeymoon. It is a little expensive, but the experience you will have is worth every dollar. We will definitely be back! Thank you so much to the entire team once again!

We loved the facilities like the room and the shower. Great stuff super nice and helpful. Delicious food and nice area to walk around
We didn't like the fact that the bathroom was separate from the main room

Stunning small hotel, with beautiful private villas and extremely kind and efficient staff. Our butler Salum made sure everything went smoothly during our stay, efficiently managed all of our requests, and even organized a lovely birthday celebration for us. The villa was kept spotless clean at all times. The ladies at the spa are lovely and give great massages. Everything perfect.

The bed curtain material did not allow air to circulate which made for uncomfortable sleeping even with the air on.
Poor lighting and lack of mirrors.
The bathroom location was inconvenient.

Stayed for 4 nights. This is the best place in Zanzibar. The staff, the location, the kindness, the kitchen, the facilities and everything was just fantastic! You get your own butler/ambassador who sorts and plans everything for you! Although everyone working there are so kind and helpful with everything! Our housekeeper left us nice cards and the staff often gave us something extra! The kitchen and the food was incredible! Way above normal 5-star accommodations and hotels! A special thanks to our butler Julius and our housekeeper Flora! But also to the managers, the bartender and all the other kind people working there!

- huge villas with two private pools and a big washroom
overlooking the bay
- 50 acres full of tropical plants with only 15 villas make the place very intimate
- the food is the best probably in the whole Zanzibar..the chef prepares everyday a new menu both for lunch and dinner
- the staff is extremely kind and helpful. You will be assigned a private butler who will fulfill all
your desires
- private beach with huge sunbeds and kayaks to use
this place is magical but if I have to find some “negative” sides..it is right in front of a fishermen village where fishermen fix their wooden boats day and night so you will hear some noise.
secondly..the sea gets completely dry during low tides (and it’s never deep enough to swim during high tides). So you need to walk 100 meters to get to the big beach of Kendwa to have a deep sea.

Kilindi is a fantastic place! We stayed for 4 nights on our honeymoon and had a magical time. All the staff are friendly and helpful. We had our own personal butler Baruti who attended to our every need. The bungalow complexes are out of this world - two private plunge pools, the biggest double bed I've ever seen, lovely lounge area with sunset views and a huge open bathroom. The food and service was amazing and endless - we ate so much and there was always more. The infinity pool was stunning and long enough for a decent swim (25m). There are only fifteen bungalows and loads of communal space, so we didn't see too many other guests around. Kilindi is away from other resorts, on the edge of a local fishing village. The beach is not shared, and feels very private. On our last night they prepared a lobster BBQ on the beach for us. Amazing!
Not much to dislike. Occasionally the pools weren't very clean. Our bungalow wi-fi went off several times, which made it difficult to communicate because the bungalow phone only works with internet. Our running water also went off frequently.
