We ended up here by change after falling ill on Kilimanjaro meant we had to head towards sea level. IT was a rather haphazard trip over with the van from Stonetown overheating on the way over to Kichanga. The room was made up for us but they were rather basic with outside taps in the bathroom and quite a bit... More

Kihanga served me a most wonderful and unforgettable week. The location, rooms and staff are all without fault. It is perfectly placed on the island with direct access to a stunning and private beach which one never tires of waking up to. The atmosphere and ambience is excellent, very chilled out and mostly owing to the attentive staff. The food... More

A beautiful, charming place, very different from the chain hotels of this world. Small villas, almost on the Indian Ocean, with fantastic views and the sound of the sea to put you to rest. Nice main house, built in a traditional way, with dining area on one side and bar and sitting area on the other. Very friendly staff, never... More

Our first impression of Kichanga wasn't great: we were shown to a room that was dirty and extremely hot and humid even with all windows open. We were offered another room.... but its ceiling fan was loose and rattled all through the night so no sleep there either. The next day they fixed the fan and all was good. We... More

While the bungalows at this secluded lodge are basic and quite the opposite of luxurious, the property makes up for these shortcomings tenfold with a long and stunning stretch of hidden beach, a spotless pool, several cozy nooks for drinking, reading, and relaxing on the beach and in the lodge (or your bungalow porch), and an overly friendly staff at...

We loved first of all the location of this nice hotel: overlooking a small beach of white sand and clear blue water, with palm trees in the front and scenic sea cliffs on the sides. With low tide you can make long walks on desert beaches or you can reach a small, unique and quite refined restaurant named The Rock... More
