The Z Hotel is the original boutique hotel on Zanzibar. Opened in 2010, it brings casual relaxation blended with contemporary London-inspired design to the beaches of Zanzibar, providing the 21st-century traveler with a fresh and original beach holiday experience.

Set in a tropical garden with steps to white powder of nungwi’s award winning beach and temperate indian ocean, the Z hotel will provide you with everything you need for a unique away-from-it-all holiday but with all the advantages of modern living, including smart tv's in our suites & Ocean front cottages, wifi & docking stations in all rooms.

Our London-inspired design blends contemporary furniture and lighting with Zanzibari features to create a bright, airy atmosphere. The Z was named one of the “Trendiest Hotels in Africa” by TripAdvisor and the World Travel Awards.

While we aim to offer a totally relaxed and stress-free environment, the hotel’s location also makes it perfectly suited for more energetic guests, with some of the world’s best diving, snorkeling and fishing nearby, as well as a wide range of water sports. The world-renowned Mnemba Atoll — home to one of the highest concentrations of turtles anywhere in the world — is just a half-hour boat ride away.
