The architecture is so beautiful and relaxaing... the open-air rainshower overlooking the ocean in each suite is phenomenal. We had our own personal butler who brought us drinks or snacks as well as meals directly to our room whenever we wanted, as well as serving us all of our meals at the restaurant. The only downside was that we loved... More

We are extensive travellers and have stayed in some amazing places around the world but Kilindi tops them all. Our pavilion, No. 11, was amazing. Right at the back of the property so higher up than most, we had incredible views especially from our roof terrace. We shared our bathroom with birds who joined us at shower time, we saw... More

We stayed at Kilindi for 9 nights on our honeymoon in September 2011. This property has had a new management team put in place over the last 12 months and you can tell that the place has come on in leaps and bounds. Alan and Maike are superb hosts, who know exactly what their customers require and will go that... More

Had a terrific, lazy couple of days here. Very romantic couples' getaway; service & food excellent. The setting is amazing, and the pavilions are truly lovely, private & luxurious (Number 5 is perfect position). Alan and Mieke are gracious hosts. Recommend it highly.

I stayed at Kilindi in November 2011, I am a Pure zanzibar agent, and can safely say I have never seen anything quite like it, along with being hugely impressed. This resort is all about privacy, so ideal for honeymooners and romantics, or those just wanting to get away from it all. A more social experience can be had by... More

Kilindi was for us simple paradise - a very private luxury resort, perfect service in a very romantic place. Our bungalow included 2 private pools, a hugh bathroom and a very stylish bedroom. Our personal butler was very kind and helpful. Meals are served whenever and wherever you want them to serve it - at the beach, the pool, at... More

We stayed at Kilindi for the second time in October 2011. The first time we stayed was in November 2010 and were very impressed back then, but lots of improvements have happened since then adding even more to this very high quality resort. The pavilions are just as beautiful as ever, with the most amazing views and so much living... More

The most beautiful hotel I have ever stayed at, by far. This place is truly as gorgeous as the pictures look. Our butler could not have been more wonderful. You get to choose when and where you want to have each meal. We ended up eating once at our pavilion, a few times by the main pool, once partly by... More

The place was so stunning, it inspired a spontaneous proposal from my now-husband! The pavilions were large, roomy and although we were there during the hottest season, due to the positioning of the windows, there was always a consistent cool breeze through the room. The butler service, was always extremely prompt and thoughtful (Thank you Mary!). They planned special dinners... More
