Nungwi – Fjallaskálar

Barbara Elizabeth Bandaríkin

First off, I want to thank Jessica for her communication and kindness during our stay. She was very helpful! Secondly, I appreciate the property manager for answering the phone for us when we were trying to find the location when we first got here. I was frustrated and he assured that he would come get us from wherever we were to make sure we made it to the property ok. The room was very clean and lovely. We stayed in the beach front villa. It was beautiful night and day. As an American (because you know we love our A/C), I was very happy about the cold A/C they had in the room. It was never hot and this was appreciated as Zanzibar is hot and humid. We had a hiccup in regards to the breakfast in the room/at the pool. I originally planned to have it on a specific day but it did not show up on that day. I spoke with the staff and they served it to us the next morning. We also had a late check out and i was very thankful they let us stay in the room past check out time. We were able to enjoy our in-room breakfast because of this and did not feel rushed at all. Shower great. Bed great. Very spacious room. The amenities in the room were also nice. I read online somewhere that the hotels typically try to keep the beach locals away from the property to the best of their ability. I will say, be prepared to constantly be sold to when trying to relax on the property. All day long , there was constantly “beach boys” trying to sell you stuff. I appreciate the security guard on the beach keeping the other tourist away from our beach swings. So many of them walked up and he kindly asked them to leave. This was nice because I feel like there would have been a line had he not been there to do this. It made us feel special. They arranged an airport drop off for us and got us on our way in time.

The breakfast was thoughtful, hearty and excellent. Ahmed is an absolute natural at hospitality and you can see its his sincerest intention to make one feel genuinely comfortable and welcome in the space you share with his family. We were delighted how pleasant the stay was after spending the first 5 nights of our time in Zanzibar at the very pricey Sandys Baobab

We stayed at Kibanda on two separate occasions on our recent trip to Zanzibar. We found the experience exception in all respects. The staff, led by Hamed and Francesca, were extremely welcoming and always had great advice. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and the A/C (we visited during hot season) worked very well. The pool was great and -- perhaps a little surprisingly -- we found the food first-rate and reasonably price. While we were there, the breakfast was also modified to add brewed coffee, an omelette bar and other upgrades which made the experience even better. The location is excellent and about a two minute walk to Nungwi beach and its excellent restaurants. All in all, we felt we received excellent value and service for our money. HIghly recommeneded.

Breakfast was good but could improve on preparation to suit the needs of client. I liked the serene environment, privacy and security. Staff were always at hand to help with travel and other logistics

Can’t recommend this place enough! The breakfast and location are on point. We got fresh fruit, juice, delicious french pressed coffee and we could chose from a selection of eggs with local pastries of the day. And to top it all off you can go for a morning dip on one of the most beautiful private beaches I’ve seen in Zanzibar. Its the perfect place to lounge in the sun, nestled between the rocks on the beach or just chill on the couches and read a book. The location is so private and peaceful, which isn’t easy to find these days in Zanzibar. The staff are lovely and there is such a chilled vibe which makes you feel right at home. Will definitely be back!
