Unguja Lodge

Far from the busy beaches, on Zanzibar’s quiet south coast near Kizimkazi, Unguja Lodge lies amid tropical greenery and rugged coral rock. You stay in villas and rooms, some with a terrace facing the sea, some as lofts in the garden, all with a private bathroom, fan and mosquito net. In the deluxe villa by the sea, even the shower has a sea view. A morning could hardly start better, could it? The restaurant and the beach bar take care of food and drink, and there is also a pool. If you want to get moving, grab a kayak or a stand-up paddleboard, or play table tennis and billiards. From here you can go diving, visit Jozani Forest with its rare red colobus monkeys, take a spice tour or head to Stone Town. You get to know the nearby village on a guided walk.
