    We had an amazing time at Surfescape Zanzibar! the location is right on the quiet beach, giving us a feeling of having it all to ourselves. the apartment was comfortable and well-equipped, with everything we needed. We enjoyed dining at the nearby hotels and restaurants, and even had the pleasure of trying the delicious Italian restaurant that delivers to the apartments. If you're looking to relax on an amazing beach, this is the paradise you've been searching for!

    Couldn't stay longer 😔.

    This beachfront apartment blew my mind with its new and stunning design, directly on the beach! The staff were super friendly and always there to help. The little garden in front of each apartment was jaw-dropping, and the owner's two beautiful dogs were a delightful addition. I was amazed by the tree growing inside the building, adding a unique touch to the decor. The central location was excellent for exploring the island with a car, and the staff, especially Alice and the beach guards, were always available and ready to assist. Daily tours organized by Marco were well-arranged. The cleanliness of the apartment and garden was top-notch. If you're looking for a relaxing beach getaway or an opportunity to work remotely, this place ticks all the boxes. The residential area meant less crowded beaches, and the staff ensured privacy and peace. Although the apartment had the necessary amenities rather than fancy extras, the value for money was excellent. The beach and the stunning blue water were simply mind-blowing.

    The spacious double room at Surfescape Beachfront Apartments is simply amazing! The soundproof walls help create a serene atmosphere, and the terrace with sea views is breathtaking. The private bathroom with a walk-in shower adds a touch of luxury. As a laid-back tourist, I absolutely loved relaxing in this cozy room.

    Personally, I found the air conditioning a bit too cold, but hey, that's just my thing! Others might enjoy it.

    The location was great, just a short walk to the beach and close to some local food places and bars. We also enjoyed the spacious and comfortable bedrooms, as well as the nice bathrooms with the best shower we've had in Tanzania. The private front yard with a hammock and sunbeds facing the beach was a major highlight, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the views. Plus, the staff was very helpful and friendly, especially when my friend got stung by a sea urchin.

    There were some disappointing aspects to our stay. The living room and kitchen area didn't have a comfortable sitting area, which made it difficult for our group of four to relax and hang out together.

    Despite some small maintenance issues, my stay at Surfescape Zanzibar was relatively pleasant. The database accurately described the well-maintained rooms, which were always kept very clean. The bed was comfortable, and the overall ambiance of the room was welcoming.

    I did encounter a minor inconvenience during my stay. The lack of mosquito nets around the bed was a concern, considering the location.

    The spacious double room offers soundproof walls, making it the perfect oasis for relaxation. I could peacefully enjoy the stunning sea views from the terrace without any disturbances. Surfescape Beachfront Apartments specializes in kitesurfing, and their expertise truly shows. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and patient, making my kitesurfing lessons a breeze.

    Uneven tables and uncomfortable chairs were a minor inconvenience.

They were always available to assist us with any needs or questions we had. the apartment was perfect, right on the beach, and had all the necessary amenities for cooking. the shower was great, and the room was spacious. We were initially hesitant due to some reviews, but we can confirm that this is the best place to stay in Kiwengwa!

    Everything exceeded my expectations. 👍🏼.
