Zoi Boutique Hotel Zanzibar

Zoi Retreat Hotel Zanzibar is a small, picturesque hotel situated right on the beach in the fishing village of Matemwe on Zanzibar’s north-eastern coast. The white coral beach, fine as powder, is ideal for long walks and swimming at high tide, while a pool a few steps from both the beach and the rooms offers a quieter alternative for a swim.

Rooms

The hotel has ten double rooms, with the option to add one or two extra beds, plus a family suite consisting of two rooms connected by a shared bathroom. Two rooms have their own private balconies overlooking the ocean, while most other rooms connect to a large wooden veranda with outdoor furniture. All rooms across the hotel’s four categories have en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning.

Dining

Meals are served on a large shaded veranda overlooking the beach, enhanced by the warm ocean breeze. The restaurant’s dedicated staff prepare an exciting mix of European-inspired cuisine and traditional Tanzanian/Zanzibari dishes.

Location

Matemwe’s fishing-village setting offers a quieter alternative to Zanzibar’s more developed beach areas, with all rooms close to the restaurant, bar, and pool, and easy access to the beach via a shaded outdoor area.

SafariBando's view

Zoi Boutique Hotel’s small scale and beachfront position in the fishing village of Matemwe offer a quieter, more authentic alternative to Zanzibar’s busier beach areas. The fine coral-sand beach, shaded veranda dining, and mix of European and Zanzibari cuisine make it a relaxed choice for travellers wanting a low-key, intimate stay close to the water.
