The KBR is a small (14 room), quiet, wonderfully relaxing resort with excellent amenities, wonderful food, an empty, wide, beautiful white sand beach in a little bay that is well protected from the open ocean by barrier reefs. Low tide exposes a long flat beach, high tide lets in a shallow green ocean. Facing the sunrise, with beautiful light for sunsets, this is a little, hidden gem. The staff are very friendly, always helpful, and the premises are extremely well maintained, including an impeccable, small swimming pool. Most visitors are romantic couples, but I enjoyed my solo visit just as much.

The hotel is new, modern and in prestine condition. The room and bahtroom is luxurious. Right on the beach!! Staff are very friendly and helpfull. Maasai are security and a nic add to the authenticity of the hotel. The beach is a bit dirty due to seaweed and it is a quiet beach - not really other resorts or restaurants nesrby.

Karibu Beach Resort very quickly became our home that we returned to even after having already checked out. The layout and attention to detail in the design of this venue is spectacular - a balance of modern and authentic. It is located on a perfectly peaceful part of Pongwe beach, where one can relax, take a swim or do some water sport if you like. The friendly, attentive, professional staff are truly what make this place even more magical! Each member of staff make you feel like you are family and go above and beyond with any requests! A great place to also just pop in and have lunch and cocktails. Truly the best place on this part of the island!

Holiday of life!! Small, boutique hotel. But an amazing place. Standard at the highest European level. The workers are very skilled. They know English on a very good level, which is very important to me The food is so delicious. I recommend trying the Zanzibari octopus The rooms are very elegant and comfortable. Like in an apartment building

A lovely, boutique hotel and we were made to feel like family! We were very impressed with our stay. The food was great and we were able to enjoy local Swahili food (chapati, fried banana / plantain, local fish, ugali). The staff were friendly and welcoming. The spa treatments were AMAZING! I had a deep tissue massage 2 days in a row because they were that good! The massage therapist added an African twist which Wes really cool - nice massage of the feet and removing deep knots in the back! Overall a great stay!

We stayed in Karibu 1 week. It was our the best time. The rooms are very clean, everything was new. We were so surprised to see Coco monkey around. The monkey was very friendly to everyone 🙂 The receptionist arranged for us trip to Mnemba. The food in the restaurant is so taste! Thank you Karibu Beach Resort Team

Fantastic place to stay for relaxing and suppering exelent food. The stuff was so kind and the house-monkey Coco was so funny to watch every brekfast. I will recomend this place If you want a piceful and relaxing vaication this should be the place. The only negative about this beach was the tide If you want to swim in the ocean.
