Hotel Review

Kizingo is a perfect hideaway, set in dunes on a long sandy beach. Each of the eight palm-thatched spacious bandas has sea views, romantic king-sized beds and a verandah for relaxing. Owner managed and operated by Kenya born Mary-Jo and her husband Louis Van Aardt, the lodge offers a wide range of activities depending on the season - dolphin watching, snorkelling, fishing, sailing and body surfing. But Kizingo's enduring appeal is to encourage its guests to relax and take life easy.
