When talking about the greatness of Kilindi, we could talk about the amazing villa, the exquisite food, the privacy, the incredible private beach with turquoise water and plenty of activities to do, or the attention to detail. But what made our experience a 10 out of 10 was the excellent attention from our villa host Salum. Salum made sure that we were comfortable at every moment, that every detail was as expected and that we weren't missing a drink or snack for a second. He also took such good care of my wife's severe allergy to nuts, double checking every meal with the chef. He made us feel so welcome and taken care of and made the difference in this beautiful resort. Would 100% recommend.

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!

Beautiful location, attentive staff, recommend getting ocean view villa, have a private pool and plunge pool. The local wildelife bush baby's or monkeys can be a slight annoyance if choosing to have meals at villa, just means cannot leave food unattended. If you have any anxiety about insects/ crawlies - the lizards and occasional spider may frighten you. But otherwise their presence isnt a concern. The villa themselves are beautiful every day the staff leave a little sweet treat after cleaning your room.

As everything is powered by a generator there can be power outages, these are short lived less than 2-3 minutes a time, but on some occasions can happen in succession lasting unto 6-10 mins

This place is Amazing ❤️ The staff go above and beyond for you with their service, So nice and Happy all the time time. we would go on Day trips and be greated with food and drink hampers free of charge to take with us. The accommodation itself was beautiful, very private and stunning views. It really was a dream come True. The food was some of the best food I’ve ever Tasted compliments to the chef he is Fantastic. I willDefinitely be returning. 10/10 Holiday for us.

Absolutely nothing to complain about.

The property and landscaping are beautiful and well maintained. The staff is extremely attentive and made us feel like home.

We are on our honeymoon but our villa (#4) is likely the least private one out of all the villas (this is our guess based on what we saw when we went kayaking). There are a lot of boats on the water at certain times of the day, and they can definitely see us when we are in the bathroom when they are close enough

Absolutely incredible stay and would recommend to anyone. We came here on our honeymoon and were unsure of spending the premium but we are so glad we did. The lodges are incredible and the staff treat you so well, our host (kind of like a butler) Salom, was so helpful and accommodating. We had a floating breakfast in our own private pool one morning, and then Kilindi organised a special seafood meal at the beach with sparkling wine as it was our honeymoon which was an absolutely amazing experience at sunset. All the food was delicious, the beach is beautiful, there are monkeys everywhere, definitely recommend!

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!

The food was amazing everyday I had something different from the menu and everything was delicious .. the hospitality was incredible especially Saleh he is a great man .. thank you Kilindi for the wonderful experience we had together.

TV in the room .. more lights in the room and inside the main swimming pool because it’s big and dark at night so it will look beautiful at night with lights and the last thing and the most important thing a GYM! Also the kitchen of the hotel needs to be open 24 hours it’s so important.

- 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.

It was a stunning location and we loved the quiet calm atmosphere around the resort. All the facilities were exceptional and the room luxurious. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful...... nothing was too much trouble! Basically 5* all round

There is no doubt it is quite expensive, but it is a unique experience.
