Amenities
Zawadi Hotel Zanzibar
Zawadi Hotel on the southeast coast of Zanzibar, just about 60 minutes from the airport, is a truly exclusive gem. Here, a spectacular view of the Indian Ocean awaits you, picturesquely framed by coconut palms and vibrant bougainvillea. It's a very private, intimate retreat with only twelve spacious villas, specially designed for couples and those seeking tranquility. Zawadi embodies elegant beach style and offers relaxed luxury at its very finest. I know these coastal stretches well; a location that allows for tide-independent swimming and snorkeling directly from the beach is something very special in Zanzibar.
