a peaceful retreat filled with nature's beauty and hammocks everywhere for your relaxation

The Promised Land Lodge in Kizimkazi truly stole my heart! The beautiful hammocks scattered around created such a serene ambiance, perfect for unwinding. I loved how the local culture intertwined with the rich tropical setting, giving me an authentic feel of the area. The refreshing saltwater pool was just the cherry on top, allowing us to cool off whenever we wanted, even in the warmest moments of the day. Shebi, the owner, was incredibly welcoming and made every effort to ensure our stay was unforgettable. Highly recommended!

unique outdoor bathrooms, chill-out areas with hammocks, vibrant sunset views

Cleanliness needs major improvement, especially with pests!!! Dinner ordering is an absolute hassle, and missing your window means going hungry. Wifi cuts out daily and the current is too strong for safe kayaking!!!

Family travelers paradise

The staff was friendly, always ready to help out with anything we needed and managing to keep the atmosphere super chill. We played volleyball and badminton all day with our teenagers, and the canoes and paddle boards were a huge hit with everyone.

The food was decent but it wasn’t inexpensive for the quality.

Promised Land Lodge offers a fantastic experience with its numerous chill-out areas featuring brilliant sea views and great decorations. The vibe is incredibly relaxing with a nice pool, kayaks, and slackline. Breakfast is absolutely delicious, especially the fresh fruit and pancakes. The staff, especially the restaurant and cleaning crew, are extremely friendly and attentive.

Swimming was challenging due to strong currents during certain tides.

The location is stunning with breathtaking ocean views and a relaxed atmosphere. However, it can be quite remote, and there's no air conditioning, which might not suit everyone. The food was decent but felt repetitive after a while. Overall, a lovely experience balanced by a few minor inconveniences.

Stunning location. perfect for relaxing with hammocks everywhere and even kayaks to explore the ocean. Breakfast was excellent. especially the fruit and eggs!

Nothing, it is perfect.

I stayed for 1 night in the Double Room with Oceanfront View and it was really nice! The room had a beautiful view and a comfy bed. I loved how well the area was set up with sun beds and hammocks everywhere. It was cozy, and I felt super relaxed there. The outdoor shower was refreshing, but the water was a bit salty. Overall, a great experience for just one night.

A Hidden Gem with Exquisite Views!

Our stay was nothing short of magical! We relished cocktails on our terrace while basking in stunning ocean views. The staff exceeded all expectations, providing warm hospitality and personalized service. A tip for future guests, try the kayaking to explore the serene waters during sunset—unforgettable!

The views from our room were stunning, and we really enjoyed exploring Zanzibar from this cozy base. The staff made us feel at home, and we loved chilling out by the pool with our two dogs after an adventure-filled day.

My kids wished for a safer playground area.

The seaview room provided beautiful vistas, complemented by the refreshing pool and easy ocean access with a ladder. The staff was incredibly helpful, assisting with excursions and ensuring a relaxed atmosphere. Major highlights included enjoying organic pulled pork and the evening bonfire, perfect for stargazing. However, the remoteness may not suit everyone.
