Boutique Beach Hotel

Trip Advisor Rating '.$item_trip.' Our Rating 9.2
 

Zuri Zanzibar, a five-star eco-responsive retreat on the northwest shores of Unguja in the Kendwa Beach district, blends contemporary design with authentic African warmth, offering mindful escapes as a distinguished member of Design Hotels.

The 56 bungalows, suites, and villas harmonize with Zanzibar's landscape, featuring air-conditioned interiors, wardrobes, desks, flat-screen TVs, and cozy seating areas, some with serene pool or garden views. Sustainable builds ensure comfort amid the tropical climate, while the outdoor swimming pool and expansive terrace invite quiet reflection. The lush garden leads to a private 300-meter west-facing beach, ideal for safe all-day swimming and snorkeling near vibrant coral reefs. Thoughtful touches like complimentary wellness sessions enhance the tranquil, culturally attuned stay.

Dining at Zuri Zanzibar centres on Maischa Restaurant, where Middle Eastern influences meet island freshness in dishes like spiced lamb tagine and herb-infused seafood, paired with a daily continental breakfast of tropical fruits and pastries. The beachfront bar crafts light cocktails and snacks, perfect for savouring breathtaking sunsets over the Indian Ocean. Guests can explore nearby reefs on guided snorkeling outings or unwind with yoga amid the palms, weaving relaxation with Zanzibar's natural rhythm.

Positioned 50 km from Stone Town and Zanzibar International Airport, with Coral Reefs Snorkel just a 9-minute walk away, Zuri Zanzibar provides effortless access to the island's historic heart and coastal adventures.
