An African Gem added to Luxury Hotels Group



Zanzi Resort: Ocean-View Villas

A little-known retreat on Zanzibar’s west coast in Tanzania, Zanzi Resort is popular with honeymooners and couples due to its privacy and peaceful setting. With just seven secluded villas set in six hectares of lush grounds beside the Indian Ocean, the enviable location and authentic aesthetic sets it apart from the typically visited resorts of European or Caribbean destinations.

The property strives to be eco-friendly and the design and build of the villas reflects this with natural, locally sourced materials. The resort also grows its own vegetables and herbs in the extensive grounds, and seafood is sourced straight from the ocean. The bright, spacious villas all have sea views, private pools with thatched gazebos for shade, and cliff top villas also have their own private beaches. With each villa completely detached and in its own grounds, the resort offers a remarkable degree of peace and privacy.

Ms Gosia Piotrowicz, Sales and Marketing Manager of Zanzi Resort said: “We decided to join Luxury Hotels Group because we wanted to reach a wider audience interested in the unique style of luxury accommodation we offer.Luxury Hotels Group seemed perfect for us because of their worldwide network and very careful selection of partners. We’ve only just started working together, but we are already very enthusiastic about our partnership.”

Ms Bernadette Koltai, Luxury Hotels Group’s Vice President, said: “This is an exciting addition to our portfolio and we’re thrilled to be working with Zanzi Resort. It’s a great example of what we know appeals to the modern luxury traveller in that it really is one of a kind, offering individuality, a distinct character and a real sense of place – attributes you rarely find with branded resort hotels.”

Zanzi Resort’s distinguished villas are already award winning (best ecologically responsible property 2015, Safari Awards) and it is currently positioned first in Tripadvisor’s Zanzibar hotel ratings. Over 200 reviews, many describing it as an “absolute paradise”, are testament to the resort’s uncompromising standards, with original African artwork in the villas perfectly complementing their stylish design, and the fresh, home grown ingredients used in the restaurant’s mouth-watering menus – all with a breath-taking palm fringed backdrop.
