    Nice place for a Dawa

    Some colleagues on a oil contingency seminar in Stonetown dropped in on this beach bar a late evening for a last drink. It was dark, but still a nice view towards boats laying on the sandy beaches. I ordered a local (?) cocktail called Dawa...More

    Pleasant location.

    I didn’t eat here but I sat here early evening and had a few beers. Very romantic feel with soft lights and candles everywhere. Great spot for a date. I think if you can during the day you could watch all the boats come in...More

    Don't go for the food. Go around 6:pm to enjoy the sunset. It is fantastic. Enjoy it even with a warm beer 😊. If the beer was cold I would give them a 4 star review.

    Huge potential, amazing music, get the "bar basics" right!

    Beer is often warm, no point asking for another....as that is warm too... ice put in a glass by hand, including the cigarette ash!. Staff are on the whole dreadful...its a fine line between "authentic" and dont care....

    Ideal place for hanging out and enjoying live music

    The Livingstones is a great place in the heart of Stonetown, with a preserved beach shaded by trees planted by the owner, a Zanzibari who cherishes the property and the city. Simple and fresh cuisine, served next to the sea. On weekends, live music with...More
