Boutique Beach Hotels on Zanzibar's South East Coast

Welcome to Zanzibar Boutique Hotels, a collection of three independent beachfront properties set between Paje, Dongwe and Pingwe, along the island's most peaceful and naturally beautiful coastline.

Each hotel has its own character: Amani Boutique Hotel brings discreet adults-only luxury to Paje; Ocean Boutique Hotel offers a quiet oceanfront escape where every room faces the sea; The Sands Beach Resort welcomes couples and families into a spacious tropical garden by the beach.

Together, they share the same spirit: personal hospitality, clean and comfortable spaces, fresh cuisine, direct access to the Indian Ocean and a slower, more authentic way to experience Zanzibar.

LOCATION

The South East Coast of Zanzibar

Our hotels are located between Paje, Dongwe and Pingwe, on the South East Coast of Zanzibar, a coastline known for white sand, turquoise tides, reef-protected waters, kitesurfing, diving, quiet beach walks and a more relaxed atmosphere than the island's busier northern areas.

Here, Zanzibar still feels open and natural. Guests can enjoy long beaches, local villages, ocean activities, romantic dinners, massages, fresh seafood and easy access to some of the island's most iconic excursions, while returning each evening to a calm and personal hotel environment.
