I stayed for a few nights at Kichanga Lodge after a very arduous trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. The lodge was a relaxing haven folliwng the trek. I was awestruck in the bus ride to the lodge by the views of the perfect blue sea and white sandy beaches. Upon arrival, the beachfront location with the lovely rustic bungalows made me... More

Despite the volatile weather forecasts I decided to spend some days at the Kichanga lodge and I've experienced a very pleasant (and sunny!) stay. Breathtaking nature, genuine atmosphere, cosy cottages, delicious and healthy food and - last but not least - a lovely staff. Special thanks to the Kichanga managers for their kind support and all the illuminating suggestions to... More

I travel for a living and seem to occupy 4/5* hotels more than my own home. Kichanga Lodge took me full on by surprise. It grounded me, made me more relaxed than a weekend at a spa and left me with the feeling of "Akuna Matata" (no worries). Waking up and going to sleep to the sound of the sea... More

What a peaceful, beautiful, quiet place!! From a frantic time travelling, it was wonderful to arrive at Kichanga Lodge where everything was handled with efficiency and calmness. We arrived and our rooms were just beautiful, for the next night we were moved to the beach front villas as they were now free. The hotel staff were amazingly accommodating, helpful and... More

We couldn't fault Kichanga, each lodge is brilliantly furnished with everything you'd need, the beach was beautiful and the friendly, attentive staff gave us five star service all week. We would really recommend this hotel for anyone planning a trip to Zanzibar.

A fantastic family friendly relaxing destination. The food, staff, clean and well kept accomodation set on the beautiful white sandy beaches of Zanzibar all make this a great getaway. It is remote so you don't get harrassed by people trying to sell you stuff. You will not be disappointed!

We have stayed at a few places in Zanzibar and Kichanga is the place that we feel most at home. It is not a high end resort but it is ideal for people requiring a private and relaxing getaway. The rooms are simple but have all the necessities, the food is normally very good (Italian) and they have one of... More

We stayed 3 nights at Kichanga Lodge and enjoyed the peace and quiet. Our hut was basic but clean, and dispite no AC, it was cool enough to sleep with the fan (and seabreeze).
