Karibu Beach Resort 5 stars

Pongwe

Located in Pongwe, a few steps from Pongwe Beach, Karibu Beach Resort provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. With a bar, the 5-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a private bathroom. The accommodation offers evening entertainment and room service. An excellent beach resort on the east coast of Zanzibar. It is quiet and beautiful. The staff is excellent, very helpful, efficient and always smiling. The beakfast has plenty of variety that I have not seen in similar resorts. The view of the sunrise from the resort was beautiful. The baech has rocky patches, however the resort provides beach shoes. The resort arranges excursions as per your requrements through a tour company with very good and relaible guides and drivers. We went on the tour with an excellent guide Malik, that included swim with dolphins, snorkelling and watching the sunset. It was all wonderfully organised including a lunch at a local restaurant. It is nice that the tour company is supporting the local retaurants. It was a bliss to return to the quiet Karibu Resort after a hectic day and relax with a drink. The resort has thoughtfully provided books and board games for th guests. The resort restaurant provides a reasonable variety of dishes. There are other restaurants available nearby in case you want a change. I recommend this quiet and beautiful resort for a quiet holiday with family or friends.
