Gold Zanzibar Beach House and Spa

A beach resort at Kendwa, on a stretch of white sand where the tide does not go far out. That single fact is why people choose Kendwa: you can swim at any hour, which is not true of much of the east coast.

The pool is wide enough to find a corner of your own. The beach restaurant runs an à la carte menu and faces west, so dinner and the sunset happen at the same time. There is a spa alongside.
