A few steps from Kiwengwa Beach and 24 km from Kichwele Forest Reserve, the property provides a private beach area, as well as a garden. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, room service and currency exchange for guests.

Our stay at Arya Boutique Resort has been an absolutely amazing experience! This was a trip to celebrate our honeymoon and we were certainly treated like royalty (which I saw so many others had stated in their reviews and yet my expectations were still exceeded!). The staff were ever so polite and genuinely willing to assist when we needed something. The cherry on top was Laura's kindness, generosity and transparency of her personality. We felt so comfortable and were incredibly spoiled by Laura and the staff. This truly was a hearty experience. Arya Boutique Resort is a very special place indeed. I would highly recommend it.

it was small & beautiful, decorated in Zanzibari style, clean & great air conditioning! It’s on the east side of the island, much quieter & secluded than Stone Town. the staff was wonderful & respected our privacy. The food was excellent—- Italian chef cooked great dishes ( I wish he wouldn’t have yelled at his staff so much!) They were helpful with taxis & excursions. We have no complaints at all & really enjoyed our time there, we also felt very safe!

    Kiwengwa beach resort has exceptional staff . We came hoping to spend just one night at the resort but we ended up stretching the stay to 4days . We were hosted like royals . The food ,the rooms- especially the family rooms we used to,the view - ooh my exceptional, and finally the stuff - ever smiling, helpful and very kind . Our employees from most of our branches will have to come for this experience or maybe we will have representatives and probably we will arrange for a short seminar with your consent on public relations and customer care
