Palumbo Mnemba

Excellent village, very relaxing and characteristic. Excellent food, in my personal experience I ate very well. The guys are all very sweet and super kind, especially: Fanueli Elias. Super kind, helpful and polite… The Maasai are very respectful and kind. The girls are super sweet… what can I say… wonderful vacation ❤️ come to Zanzibar!!!!!🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿🇹🇿❤️❤️❤️

My boyfriend and I stayed at this resort in Kendwa for a seven-day stay, a very well-kept and clean environment, equipped with every service, the staff is always kind and helpful, the girls in the restaurant and housekeeping work hard from morning to night for an impeccable service, and always with a smile. The only negative note I found is that during lunch and dinner, you don't even have time to finish your food before they take your plate away immediately, this was one of the things that really bothered me, sometimes I found myself with food still in my mouth without a plate or with the anxiety of having to finish quickly. The food and the buffet were excellent and abundant, both at breakfast, lunch, and dinner, there was really everything, even the pasta I must say was just as good, every day there was a different sauce. Another inconvenient note, however, was the beach restaurant for lunch; if one day we didn't want to go to the beach, we were forced to go down because lunch was only served in the beach restaurant, together with the people staying at the Palumbo Waves. The beach was truly huge, even the area where the sunbeds were was very large, there were so many sunbeds and umbrellas and there were even two sunbed areas, one in front and another to the side with also another pool, in addition to the one at the resort. Beach also equipped with a bar to be able to drink at any time of the day. Perhaps a bit too much distance between the beach and the sea but it doesn't matter, the sea was always crystal clear and almost without tidal phenomena being a less affected area. The beach boys are very annoying, the first few days they are really insistent and thank goodness they cannot come into the sunbed area but can only stay on the beach, however when you went for a swim it was a constant pestering of people for purchases. To reach the beach there is the shuttle, DALA DALA, which is very convenient also because the distance is long and given the roads that are there it is better not to walk it, especially in the evening, the dala dala was convenient because it also offered evening service until 11 PM to be able to go to the Palumbo Waves where there was the rooftop, a beautiful roof terrace, to be able to have a drink. It was practically in the other hotel located closer to the beach but with the same owner and manager, and even there on the terrace only alcoholic drinks were paid for separately, but until 10 PM, even if you were staying at the Palumbo Kendwa, non-alcoholic items were not paid for. Our room was very spacious, the bathroom was also spacious, especially the shower, and it was also equipped with a small outdoor balcony with a small table and armchairs; they gave us a room with three beds for two people, and it was truly huge, very beautiful, always clean, and every day during cleaning, the girls would make a different design for us with their little purple flowers, and on the last day they were very sweet to even leave us a goodbye note. A negative note about the room is the minibar, which was present but not working. Top-notch entertainment; the entertainers put on a different show every evening in the pool area. During this stay, I found the manager to be unprofessional; at the beginning, when we arrived and were new, he introduced himself as friendly, helpful, and joking, then after two days when he passed by, he barely even said hello; I noticed that he laughed and joked only with those he liked, and I found that to be unprofessional. The entertainers were always present and available, but at times I found them to be unfriendly in their responses to the requests I made; personally, I noticed that the Neapolitan people were all held in high regard and were very well-liked by both the manager and the entertainers. We did and booked all the excursions through Enzo, who is part of the hotel; they were organized very well and the prices were also average. Matteo, the excursion guide, was very good, very attentive, and friendly. Overall, I would say a beautiful stay, impeccable services, excellent and always abundant food at any hour, and crystal-clear sea; I would return in the future, and I recommend it for those who want an excellent stay with an excellent sea and total relaxation.

I stayed at the Palumbo Kendwa, a beautiful and well-kept place. The rooms are very spacious and always clean, the food is very good and varied for both lunch and dinner. Friendly and kind staff both in the village and on the beach, the entertainment team is fun and talented, the manager is helpful and friendly.
