Kewda, is great, good food with on time service which is rare for africa, bar is lively and full of the traveling crowd, and beach party nights always go into the morning. Facility's are good, and prices vary but are cheaper than most other places around the beach. Well worth a look in if your look in for somewhere to... More

We went to Kendwa Rocks for the full moon party, and had dinner at the restaurant before. Our service was flawless and we had a very attentive server. The pizza was delicious, and the rest of the menu looked very extensive. More

Location is perfect in Kendwa, just on the beautiful beach. Pizza is delicious, especially compared to many other Zanzibar places. Sushi is also well eatable. The rest average. The service is slowish but enough fast at least in the low season. A good option for quick filling of stomache, especially if you fall out of official Zanzibar lunch hours (12.30-15). More

We were 3 people and the waiter did not ever care. We told them the food was cold and they did not do anything about it.Overall not so good food... More

The restaurant at Kendwa Rocks serves decent food, but the staff is generally unhelpful or tries to ignore you. One member of our group also got food poisoned after eating there. If you go 100 meters further north from Kendwa Rocks, there's a decent restaurant at the beach. More

We didnt stay at kendwa, but if the restaurant + staff are anything to go by, it was totally crap. They don't treat their customers well at all, on christmas day, they had a big "buffet" but gave the whole restuarant plastic knives and forks, and when buying a drink, wouldnt give us change in money, but in vouchers!
