LUX* Marijani Zanzibar, a radiant five-star hotel on the sun-kissed shores of Pwani Mchangani, captures the essence of Zanzibar's beauty with its 82 villa-style rooms, blending Swahili-inspired elegance with modern indulgence as a proud member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
Each of the 82 rooms, offered in four distinct styles, opens to a private balcony framing views of the Indian Ocean or lush gardens, with air-conditioned interiors, safety deposit boxes, and refined furnishings that evoke tranquility. The expansive pool deck, adorned with shaded gazebos and plush loungers, invites leisurely days by the sparkling outdoor pool. A private beach, complete with deck chairs and attentive service, slopes gently into the public beach, perfect for ocean dips or engaging with local traders. The fitness centre caters to active guests, while the serene spa offers treatments infused with Zanzibari botanicals, set against the soothing rhythm of the waves.
Dining at LUX* Marijani is a celebration of island flavours. The oceanfront restaurant serves a vibrant mix of Swahili seafood dishes, from grilled octopus to coconut-infused curries, alongside international favorites, with breakfast showcasing fresh tropical fruits and artisanal pastries. The beachside bar crafts cocktails with local spices and offers light bites, ideal for savouring under the shade of a gazebo or during golden-hour sunsets. Guests can explore the coastline with guided snorkeling, join beach volleyball, or simply relax on the private beach, immersing in the island's laid-back charm.
Located 500 meters from Pwani Mchangani Beach, LUX* Marijani Zanzibar is 21 km from Kichwele Forest Reserve, 39 km from the Peace Memorial Museum, and 48 km from Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, offering seamless access to Zanzibar's cultural and natural wonders.
