L’hôtel est très bien situé face a The Rock Les villas privées sont exceptionnelles, la piscine privée a une superbe vue sur l’océan. Le restaurant est digne d’un étoilé Très bonne cuisine, bien servi, à l’écoute.

Rien à redire, tout est parfait

Upendo is a lovely boutique hotel on Pingwe beach. The service and staff were exceptionally stellar and it was easy to book rides and excursions. The room was spacious and always kept clean. It was nice to have private beach access and very interesting to see the tide come in and out.

Keep in mind that this location is very far from other parts of Zanzibar. Travel to Stone Town, Kendwa/Nungwi, and Mnemba Island is over an hour.

Restaurant and common areas for pools and daybeds were beautiful.

The room itself was spacious but not well designed. For example, even though the room was huge it did not have seating so the extra space was unusable until we pulled in chairs from the common area. The patio doors were also problematic as they didn't close all they way(there was a one inch gap), the doors did not open all the way as promised because the hinges were all rusted and the curtains could not be pulled back easily. The shower in the room was also not well designed as water sprayed out to 1/3 of the bathroom whenever the shower was used. Service also felt awkward and inconsistent though we could tell they were trying. Airport transfer was arranged seamlessly but there was one day were our Whatsapp messages were not read for 45 minutes and it took around 45 minutes to arrange a taxi into Stone Town. Wifi was also very spotty at this property - which was not the case at another property we stayed at down the road. Service for meals was also awkward as we would be asked for orders before we were ready but then never checked in on again after receiving food. Overall for the steep price (2.5X the cost per night of the other property we stayed at) we did not feel the stay at Upendo was worth it.

La location, la villa privata, il quadro complessivo, la gestione, la privacy

Niente

Everything

The food and views were so good, we hardly wanted to leave the hotel premises. Staff are very accommodating and friendly.

They need some more vegan options, but the location right opposite ThRock Restaurant was out of this world!

Unfortunately they were still doing some construction at the restaurant.

gorgeous location, beautiful interior design, paradisiacal setting

there wasn’t anything not to like
