Zawadi is a small boutique hotel, on Zanzibar’s south-east coast, that sits atop a cliff, with a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean, framed by swaying coconut palms and bougainvillea. At the centre of the property the cliff recedes, creating a lovely unspoiled beach cove of pristine white sand, just a few steps from the lodge. Guests can enjoy swimming in the warm waters of the Indian Ocean throughout the day and can go snorkelling straight from the beach. There is also a swimming pool and small spa.
There are just nine spacious villas here, dotted along the cliff, each encompassing 100sqm with en-suite bathrooms and a spacious terrace directly overlooking the ocean. With a relaxed atmosphere and understated elegant beach décor, it is a tranquil, laid back hideaway offering guests and all-inclusive stay with the very best cuisine and personalised service.
For guests who want to take advantage of the Water Sports Centre, Tennis Court or Spa at Zawadi’s sister hotel, Baraza Resort & Spa, a free shuttle service is available at scheduled times. With a minimum age of 16, Zawadi is the perfect option for couples and honeymooners looking for some peace and quiet.
