With Paje Beach reachable in a few steps, Ananda Beach Hotel provides accommodation, a restaurant, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a private beach area. Complimentary WiFi is provided throughout the property.

A terrace can be found at the lodge, along with a shared lounge. From the very first step into Anada Hotel, we were embraced by a profound sense of warmth and care that made us feel instantly at home. The reception staff welcomed us with genuine kindness, the security team and porters assisted us with thoughtfulness, and the housekeeping staff ensured every detail of our stay was flawless. Every interaction was infused with heartfelt hospitality that resonated deeply with us. A highlight of our experience was meeting a beautiful Masai family on the beach, accompanied by joyful children who filled the moments with laughter and connection. Our daughter formed a heartwarming bond with their son, creating memories of pure joy and wonder. Their presence added a soulful depth to our time in paradise, making our stay truly unforgettable. Leaving Anada was difficult — it became a sanctuary of peace, warmth, and togetherness. To the remarkable team and the inspiring Masai family, thank you for touching our hearts in ways we will carry with us always. Until we meet again.

Offering pool views, Safaya Luxury Villas - Adults only in Nungwi offers accommodation, free bikes, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a terrace and water sports facilities. Both WiFi and private parking are available at the lodge free of charge. I had an amazing experience at this hotel! Everything was excellent from start to finish. I booked a package that included breakfast and dinner, and every meal exceeded my expectations. Special thanks to Chef Kilash, who prepared delicious meals with great care and creativity. Also, I truly appreciated the restaurant supervisor, who was very attentive and ensured everything was perfect during my stay. What made the experience even better were the privacy and luxurious amenities — a private pool, a beachfront location, and a spacious, comfortable room. It was the perfect combination of relaxation and elegance. Thanks to the administration.

Located in Michamvi, Shanuo Beach Bungalows provides free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a private beach area and a terrace.

There is a fully equipped private bathroom with shower and free toiletries.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy a continental or a halal breakfast. I could honestly write a 10-page article in praise of Shanuo. Firstly, yes. It’s every bit as beautiful as the pictures would have you believe. (With that said, there’s no way to truly capture the beauty of this place through a camera lens. You just have to go there to see that for yourself). Surrounded by coconut trees and brightly coloured tropical flowers, the bungalows overlook the Indian Ocean - a morning dip is a must! My room was clean and comfortable and I was provided with everything I might need during my stay. Although Shanuo doesn’t have its own restaurant, I can honestly say this has no impact on your stay at all. The breakfasts are generous and Shanuo provides drinks and snacks (at a small fee) if you’re feeling peckish. There are several neighbouring properties along the beach with restaurants. I promise you won’t go hungry! Secondly, the staff are incredibly accommodating and helpful, and you’re guaranteed to be met with a friendly smile and an enthusiastic “Jambo” 100% of the time. If you need anything, you just need to look up and someone is there to assist. A big thank you to everyone at Shanuo, but especially to Na who brought my breakfast every morning and who I had lovely chats with, to Daniel who cut copious amounts of fresh aloe vera to tend my sun burn, and of course to the manager, Gillian, who is energetic, friendly and builds meaningful connections with her guests which she uses to tailor her travel tips especially to your needs. This team creates an atmosphere that truly makes you feel as though you’re ‘coming home’. There’s so much more that I could say, but anyone reading this will begin to think I’m exaggerating. I’m really not. Do yourself a favour and just book! I’ll certainly be coming back here on my next Zanzibar adventure.

With Matemwe Beach reachable in a few steps, Utupoa provides accommodation, a restaurant, free bikes, an outdoor swimming pool and a garden. Both WiFi and private parking are available at the lodge free of charge. A wonderful cozy and friendly place to stay. The shared meals were such a nice addition after traveling and eating solo. The staff are so attentive and friendly. It’s clean and has everything you need, including amazing meals by the chef. It’s also literally right on the beach, the water comes up to the doorstep making swimming very convenient. I highly recommend!

Evergreen Bungalows offers beachfront accommodation in Bwejuu. The property has a private beach area and bike hire and car hire are available. Zanzibar City is 37 km away. Free WiFi is offered and free private parking is available on site. The location is wonderful, quiet and absolutely relaxing. The bungalow where we stayed did not have all the comforts like an hotel room, but we knew what we were doing when we booked here, we wanted to be immerse in the nature and that was exactly what we got, we even had the pleasure to see a little monkey on our balcony one day. All the people working at Evergreen are super polite and available, the way the treated us was unbelievable, it will be very hard to forget them. The beach in front of Evergreen is not crowded like Paje, and on top of that there are very few beach boys, one day we went in Paje and regretted it because we were stopped every 2 minutes by people trying to sell you something, so we decided to come back at Evergreen. Another crazy thing is the food, litterally everything was delicious, and we tried almost the entire menu during our stay. Also we cannot fail to mention Alawi, he will be your point of reference for every tour around the island, we did many tours thanks to him, and he was so sweet to give us gifts the day we left, so we really cannot forget him, and also Yusuf (our driver) which we fell in love with. This place really left something in our heart and in our memories. If we’d ever come back to Zanzibar this is the only place where we’d want to stay. A huge thank you goes also to Claudia and Mustafa, they did a wonderful job at Evergreen you can fell their love for this place, and on top of that they were very helpful. It is impossibile to not drop some tears the day you leave.
