Pongwe Beach Lodge
Situated on one of the most beautiful coastlines in the world, the Pongwe Beach
Hotel is a true paradise retreat, set within a secluded bay on the east coast of
Zanzibar; an island in the Indian Ocean just off the coast of Tanzania, Africa.
This is a modestly sized hotel, with sixteen traditional beach-side cottages, and
an intimate atmosphere.
Pongwe Beach Hotel offers the perfect paradise island experience. The bay's clear
blue waters — protected by the reef one kilometre from the shore — are ideal for
swimming and snorkeling. If the midday sun becomes too strong you can retreat into
the shade of the palm trees that line the white sandy beach, and sip a long, cool
drink.
Pongwe has its own traditional wooden long boat with which guests may gain access
to deep waters before and beyond the reef. There is also snorkeling out at Mnemba
Atoll where you can find many coral species and marine life; and at Kizimakzi sharks,
dolphins and turtles can be found. Scuba diving can be arranged whether it be a
day dive or a Padi open water course.
The resort’s beautiful gardens surround ten beach front Zanzibarian cottages. You
will find various locally hand-crafted Zanzibarian doors and traditional beds. All
cottages have en suite bathrooms, with Moroccan style walk in showers. Each cottage
also has its own private terrace
