NEW!!! May 2018- Luxury Resort
NEW WORLD-CLASS LUXURY RESORT
Zuri Zanzibar opened its doors on 1st May 2018! It is situated on the north shores of Zanzibar, within the Kendwa area of the island. The resort may be situated on arguably the island’s finest non-tidal beach, but this new luxury resort is set to make all sorts of big waves. The resort is owned and operated by Design Hotels, whose portfolio comprises a staggering 284 properties worldwide, all aiming to provide authentic experiences.
Overview
- 55 bungalows, suites, and villas, all close to a non-tidal beach
- 3 restaurants & bars, library, gym, spa, spice gardens, infinity pool
- Watersports, dhow boat cruises, spice tours, trips to stone town, prison island, and Jozani forest
LOCAL INSPIRATION
The local inspiration extends to Zuri Zanzibar’s cuisine as well, with seven restaurants and bars highlighting the island’s diverse flavors. Traditional African dishes receive a tropical twist at Upendo, the main restaurant serving fresh shrimp and other seafood seasoned with local spices from the four-acre Zuri Garden, while sundowners—a nod to the safari tradition of mainland Tanzania—are served at the laidback bar overlooking Kendwa beach.
Beyond its stylish beachfront, the Zuri—whose name means “beautiful” in Swahili—is an ideal jumping-off point for island explorations. The resort’s guided tours include snorkeling with turtles near Mnemba Island, swimming with dolphins in Menai Bay, and tracking the rare red colobus monkey in the Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park.
