I arrived on 9th september for a week holyday at Stone Town in Zanzibar island with my wife. After an hour trip we arrived to the Kipepeo Lodge in Jambiani, a special house on the ocean sea with a large sand garden and a beautiful swiming pool rounded by violet flowers and plants. Along all the stay we have been... More

We stayed for over ten days in a large group and found this the perfect place. We did have the whole place to ourselves because of the size of us so this recommendation is based on that. The staff were very professional, extremely friendly, very flexible and quickly reflected the mood of the party and fitted the running of the... More

We stayed at Kipepeo for 6 nights with 3 adults and 1 child (under 3). The Kipepeo staff were incredibly accomodating, arranging our meals and helping us plan day trips. The laid-back nature of the staff and the village gave us just the rest and relaxation we needed. Fans in the bedrooms, and the new balcony upstairs, kept us cool... More

we arrived here after spending our first week on safari in tanzania and sight seeing in stone town. The moment Mohamed, the house manager, and his wonderful team came out to greet us from the taxi I knew we were in safe hands. The house was perfect. A large circular house with a pyramid shaped roof made of palm leaves... More

Zanzibar is a vibrant interesting island, the people welcoming, and the location of Kipepeo Lodge is stunning. Jambiani must have one of the most beautiful beaches, with its silvery sand, turquoise water and palm trees, and its peaceful unspoilt fishing village of thatched houses. Kipepeo Lodge was one of the most attractive with its wonderful high roof, pretty garden, swimming... More

We have already been happy to interact with our guests about their comments above. We explained that the whole property was conceived for a very relaxed (most of the time) outdoor life. This simply because we are literally at few centimeters from the waves that reach our fence on the beach. This does not means that the bedrooms are not... More

I came to Kipepeo in February expecting a holiday in paradise, and Kipepeo Lodge gave me that and so much more! The local staff were extremely friendly and helpful, making me feel most welcome and at ease. The food was great, authentically Zanzibarian, and the surrounding location was spectacular. A great aspect about it's location, Jambiani, is it is situated... More

A wonderful retreat away from it all. Great relaxing atmosphere and wonderful local flavour make this one of the best African lodges on the beach I have ever stayed at. The view from the terrace in the morning and the good food make this an enchanting place where to wake-up and have breakfast, set a wedding event or just relax... More

I guess this place is a must in Zanzibar. We stayed for a week long and nothing could have been more perfect. The villa is built on the beach, feet in the water, and if rented exclusively, the experience of being in the middlle of magics is touchable. The building style and details are absolutely picked from Zanzibar, but with... More
