Basic room in lovely location.
The room we had at Kimte Lodge was clean, but basic and quite small. However, the location and beach bar/breakfast area were lovely. We were treated to a visit by Red Colobus monkeys ( a Zanzibar specific species ) at breakfast on our first day.

Tres moyenmais pas cher
Une chaleur torride dans la chambre non climatisé et tres peu aérée. Le menage n'est fait qu'à la demande. La restauration est chere. Il y a bien meilleur ailleurs. Le service n'est pas identique selon le personnel.... et son etat ... Beaucoup de locaux viennent fumer ...et restent au resto; cela ralenti le service et fait beaucoup de bruit d'autant qu'il y a toujours de la musique forte. Coupures d'eaux frequentes et d'electricité. Pas de volets aux fenetres, tout le monde peut voir dans la chambre Nous n'avons pas pu partir car la reservation ne prevoit pas d'annulation mais l'envie etait la ! Dommage car avec un peu de rigeur, ils pourraient faire bien mieux. Si je retourne à Jambani; je n'irai surement pas lç, quitte à payer un peu plus cher

È un bellissimo lodge con poche camere direttamente sul mare, il cibo è ottimo e tutto molto fresco, lo staff e i proprietari sono davvero fantastici, ti faranno sentire come a casa. Io ci ho lasciato un pezzo di cuore e lo voglio consigliare a tutti. Vi faranno stare benissimo

Kleines Paradies
Die Lage der Lodge ist einfach top. Kaum 10m vom Zimmer zum Strand. Frühstück unter Palmen am Meer, tolles Essen und mega nettes Personal. Jeden Tag frische Früchte zum Frühstück. Wir waren zum Kitesurfen da und konnten direkt vor der Haustür kiten gehen. Die Gezeiten sind sehr extrem, daher muss man bei Ebbe ein gutes Stück raus laufen mit dem Kite. Die Jungs von der kleinen Kiteschule nebenan sind auch super hilfsbereit und freundlich. Ein kleines Paradies weit weg vom Massentourismus.
