Modern, very nice hotel, ideal for quality rest, neither too big nor too small. Royal suite is perfect. The Staff is extremely kind, very helpful. Breakfast and dinner delicious, wide selection. The beach dinner event was really special. Special thanks to Ally (hotel manager) and Esther for the constant care, we had a great time there.

I stayed at few hotels in Zanzibar and here it is different - original bush has been saved , added flowers and endemic plants.African style architecture blended inside the garden , tastefully decorated rooms and some villas, each has different theme. I like the local arts around.Pool on the secluded beach , so wonderfully relaxing …Life slows down🌴☀️The cuisine is absolutely delicious. I enjoyed Zanzibar traditional music band

Everything was perfect! The staff extremely nice and helpful, the food was very tasty, there was every day a different choice freshly cooked. The room was calm, clean and comfortable.

    You need to take into consideration the feelings of your visitors....we do not like being targeted by people pestering us to buy from them every time we go to the beach. It really is a negative factor of visiting your wonderful island paradise....it spoiled it for us. Also this happened to us on other beaches in Zanzibar so not just a Pongwe problem....its endemic to Zanzibar.

    Pongwe is an isolated beach, at low tide the sea is very far away and, even at high tide, it is very shallow - you cannot swim. Kiwengwa beach, next door (10 minutes by car) is much better, more lively, with many shops and good hotels.

    TOA is a truly wonderful hotel. Our room was just a step from the white sands of the gorgeous beach. We stayed on a half board basis and the abundant buffet was absolutely delicious. We joined in some of the activities such as aquagym (great fun!) and village visit (fascinating!). Special mention to the superb staff, especially Mwana (entertainment), Ester (front desk) and Alex (rooftop bar), all of whom went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. A 5 star experience which we have been recommending to everyone.

    From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, this hotel was perfect. From the welcoming staff, stunning sea view room, all the small touches: wine on arrival, massages included, paddle boarding the yoga just everything was simply amazing. John at the bar was the best and the lady who done guest relations was incredible she catered to our late check out and even offered us take away breakfast when she knew we had an early safari day - all very special

    Nice place, had better stays in three star hotels on the island, but it was absolutely ok. The prices for food and drinks at the pool are way too high, so support the local people for drinks around.
