Mr Kahawa Waterfront Suites

This place is the best in Paje , if you are in a search for chill vibes, connection to this island, comfort and fair prices. The rooms are decorated in a unic style, where every details will impress you and make you understand how much soul was put un this place. It’s very beautiful , it’s clean and the bed is so comfortable. The staff are friendly and they greet you with a smile every time.. The managers always stop to speak to you and get your feedback making sure you are happy! It is a safe place for you and the family and when the tide is low nd you wish to swim.. there is a big pull to enjoy! Acces to the beach is few steps away .. The kite center is close by, as well there is a non stop supermarket 3 min walking distance! The breakfast is generous and delicious. Everything is fresh , prepared by amazing chefs. Another fantastic thing about this hotel, it is one of the few locations still open now .. when is considered “off season” Don’t be scared hearing “rainy season” .. the weather was amazing ..

This was my first hotel experience in Zanzibar and it was hard to beat! The Waterfront was comfortable, clean, and had strong wifi and AC. I loved relaxing at the beach bar and cafe in the early mornings and at dusk - so fun to watch the kite surfers. Definitely recommend when in Page!

i booked 17 nights at Waterfront given that I was under the impression that this would be a magical and unforgettable place on Paje, at least that was the hype that I got from Instagram. However, the Waterfront is average and satisfactory at best, and certainly not worth the US120 that we need nightly. Firstly, the place, which has apparently been around since 2006, is clearly showing its age. The bathroom facilities are small and spartan, and certainly was a bit of a shock when we first checked into the room. Pros: 1- Great location where KiteCenter Zanzibar and Mr Kahawa is, nice and central when you are walking back from parties along Paje. 2- Water dispensers to fill up your bottles. And this is about the only Pro that I can think of for the place. Below are the numerous cons: 1- A very mediocre breakfast (1 main dish like a pancake/avocado toast, spanish omelete) of lilliputian portions. I always had to order another dish (paid) from Mr Kahawa to supplement. 2- Inconsistent room service. I would often have to bug the stuff to give us two bath towels despite the fact that it was clear that there were two guests in the room. 3- Spartan and aging toilet facilites. 4- If you are unlucky to be put in the rooms at the back of the center (away from the beach and the pool), it is dark and mosquito infested. We werent unlucky in this regard but we heard complaints from other guests. 5- Average pool (the pool at Aluna was better). However, because of its open and central location, the hotel did not bother to check whether outside guests were using the pool or not, making it overcrowded most times from 10am to evening. Tl;dr: Great location but worth it only if you were paying 60-70 bucks a night. at around 110-130 a night, absolutely not worth it.

The overall experience is great -the rooms is great needs a refrigerator and to fix the safe and it will be great -the pool seems nice -the breakfast was good needs to have more variety -the beach view is amazing -mr.kahawa the beach restaurant is amazing bit crowded but the service is good
