L'unica cosa che ci è piaciuta è la gentilezza di Gy e l'aiuto che ci ha dato per riuscire ad avere la cancellazione del soggiorno senza pagare niente.

Bibi Mrembo Guesthouse, hotel in Kiwengwa

Bibi Mrembo Guesthouse is a beachfront property situated in Pingwe, a few steps from Michamvi Pingwe Beach and 24 km from Jozani Forest. The property has sea views.

This was the most special and beautiful place I stayed in Zanzibar. This is not a standard Hotel or even backpackers usual place. Carol or Bibi Mrembo as the locals call her opens the doors of her house for you and with her kindness and welcoming vibe makes the stay and moments with her to be so special. Loved my time here and the time I spent with her discovering the surroundings, snorkeling and having lunch together. Definitely, my place in Zanzibar. Long life Carol and keep vibing as you do. Big kiss!

    Besides clean facility the design of the hotel was simple and clean. Tha A.C worked really well, it was crispy inside the room despite the extreme humidity and heat outside (Apparantly it's been an exceptionally warm year). Good, comparably busy area on the coast with good restaurants outside, next to Imara. I enjoyed being with, and seeing the locals outside, infront/behind the hotel. The view from the room towards the sea :)

    Great host, who went above and beyond to ensure that I had a great stay. Nice location. Walking distance to the beach. The room has both a fan and AC, which helps with keeping the place nice and cool.

    Fantastic spot on the beach and amazing hosts! The whole property is brand new, perfectly cozy and clean, and absolutely authentic. The attention to detail is astonishing and the breakfast is among the best we ever experienced! We enjoyed the comfortable pick-up service from the airport. The lovely hosts made us feel so welcome, as if we found our beach home, and the beach bar fully completed the perfect picture :) Restaurants around are great too! We'll definitely come back!

    A wonderful place, beautiful, atmospheric, quiet and peaceful. Great host Jim!!!! Always nice, helpful, polite and smiling, taking care of the comfort of holidaymakers. Beautiful beach with white sand, cleaned daily. Breakfast with local fruits, omelette, pita bread, coffee, tea, honey, jam... nothing else needed. I felt very safe here.

    Good vibes, great food, nice pool surrounded by beautiful garden, rooms are fully equipped, nice and clean. 5 min walking distance from the beach through the village where you can buy tasty mango, fresh coconut or pinapple (ananas) from locals. Own beachbar offers sunbeds for free and serves lovely food and drinks durring the day, the vibe and chill of this place is awesome. Im gonna miss this place and their Aperol Spritz :)

    Great resort to enjoy Zanzibar! The facility is amazing and the limited number of rooms makes it intimate and authentic. Carolina and Andrej are two great hosts and together with the rest of the staff they have done their best to satisfy our requests, organize different excursions and make our stay perfect. The resort hosts a kite school and that's a great plus if you're into it. Finally the cuisine is very good!
