Zawadi Hotel, a serene five-star retreat perched atop a low cliff on Zanzibar's southeast coast in Michamvi, offers nine private villas with direct access to a pristine white-sand beach, blending relaxed elegance with all-inclusive hospitality as a cherished member of The Zanzibar Collection.
Each spacious villa, designed for intimate escapes, features air-conditioned comfort, flat-screen TVs with satellite channels, DVD players, and en-suite bathrooms with baths, showers, bidets, hairdryers, and premium toiletries, all secured with safety deposit boxes. Private plunge pools overlook the Indian Ocean, while terraces invite breezy mornings. The resort's outdoor swimming pool shimmers with sea views, complemented by a fitness centre and lush gardens for tranquil strolls. Free bicycles encourage coastal explorations, and the spa offers soothing treatments infused with local essences, ensuring a harmonious balance of activity and repose.
Dining at Zawadi unfolds with personalized flair. The oceanfront restaurant serves a buffet, continental, or Full English breakfast, followed by all-inclusive lunches and dinners weaving Zanzibari spices into fresh seafood and international dishes, from grilled prawns to herb-roasted lamb. Meals can be savoured on the terrace or delivered via room service, paired with cocktails from the cliffside bar during golden sunsets. Guests can snorkel in the lagoon's clear waters or cycle through nearby villages, immersing in Michamvi's gentle coastal rhythm.
Steps from Michamvi Pingwe Beach and 22 km from Jozani Forest's lush trails, Zawadi Hotel lies a short drive from Stone Town's historic allure and Zanzibar International Airport, weaving seclusion with the island's vibrant essence.
