The hospitality of the hotel is amazing. They provided me everything I need, I had to catch a midnight flight and they even prepare me boxes of food just because I had breakfast included in my package. The vibe here is very chill. Highly recommended to have a stay here.
Cons: food in general is abit salty. And choice is less

The room was a little small, yet had a nice view and ocean breeze. The mini split air conditioners were crazy loud. It took until the 2nd morning to figure out how to turn them off, they weren't necessary anyway with the ocean breeze and overhead fan. I spent most of my time outside anyway. The grounds were really lush with lots of shade and flowering plants including baobab trees. The restaurant had a large menu with some great choices. The bartender was also creative.

Villa Kiva, Matemwa is an oasis down a dusty track outside the village. Its beautiful well-maintained garden leads to the main building, where staff are well-trained and attentive. The room we had booked was at the back, overlooking the surrounding scrubland, but when staff realised we weren’t thrilled, they moved us to a much better room facing the sea. There is a huge shady area to catch the breeze, which we found a life-saver as the beach was too hot to sunbathe. Food here is excellent - and not as expensive as the surroundings would suggest. We only stayed 2 days, as we were covering a lot of the island in a 3 week trip, but would be happy spending a couple of weeks holiday here, which is what a lot of people seem to do. The village itself has a few shops, but no ATM. Our only problem was nothing to do with the hotel, just a local hassle-merchant, who threatened violence after shouting ‘no photo’ when I was photographing the palm trees fringing the beach - with no people in the shot

Hôtel superbe notre chambre était confortable et toujours propre, le restaurant est de qualité et la carte assez variée. Les espaces aquatiques très bien agencés. Mention spéciale pour l'équipe qui est incroyablement gentille et toujours aux petits soins.
