Makame Garden House, a property with a garden, is situated in Kendwa, 1.3 km from Kendwa Beach, 2.1 km from Royal Beach, as well as 2.9 km from Nungwi Beach.

First I would like to thank the entire team, make the period of staying in Makame a pleasure and feel like home! The owner is verry helpfull in any kind of request and questions. The location is cozy, and chill, which makes it verry comfortable. As big plus I would like to give for the individual kichinette and fridge for each apartment. This makes it feel private, as at home, not depending on other guests. The big individual teracce, and the garden is really nice and colourfull. Small store available direct to the location.

Great Hostel ! Good beds. Beach 2 mins away. Food at the restaurant is good and cheaper than at other restaurants. Modest breakfast, but can ask some extra eggs ;)

    Location is good, not on the main beach but only a short walk to it. The beach directly in front of the hotel is main where locals park their boats. We stayed in 3 hotels between Kendwa and Nungwi beach. This was the best value for money hotel. It’s not expensive and the hotel reflected that but we’re not mad about this at all.

    Renata is very nice and a lovely host. The location is perfekt, as we prefer to stay a few hundred meters from the beach. Spacy clean room. Superb breakfast. Some cute cats on our veranda was a great bonus. We can recommend Furaha B&B for comfortable stay in Kendwa.

    The long beach where you can walk and access to turquoise waters. Locals try to send you things constantly but they dont insist when you say no. The sunbeds, the bars' area and the music in the evening. The spa was OK. If you prefer calm and silence dont go this hôtel. My economy room was great. Clean and confortable.
