The Z Hotel

This chic, boutique hotel situated in a secluded plot on the corner of an idyllic beach in Nungwi, is located on the northern tip of Zanzibar. It blends elegant, contemporary design with traditional Zanzibari features to create a unique cool and relaxing environment.
Set in a lush, tropical garden with direct access to the white powder beaches and warm waters of the Indian Ocean, the Z hotel has been finished to a high specification by an international team of architects and interior designers: each room has floor to ceiling glass doors leading onto a balcony which looks out across the Ocean. All rooms feature LCD TVs, DSTV cable television, WiFi and Philippe Starck furniture.
The hotel offers alfresco dining in our main restaurant ‘Saruche’, along with Asian-fusion tapas and sharing platters in ‘Cinnamon’, our cocktail bar, where you can also find our exclusive list of mouth watering cocktails.
