Zoi Beach Luxury Villa

Five en suite bedrooms over two floors, three with king beds and two with twin beds. The supplier prices the house for six guests up to ten, so ten is the maximum.

It belongs to the same collection and is run by the same team, but it is a separate house ninety metres along the beach with its own garden, pool and front door. The hotel restaurant and treatment room are there when you want them.

The house itself for the number of guests booked, the pool, the garden, the rooftop and the beach path, daily cleaning and turn down, wifi, air conditioning, toiletries and pool towels, a welcome drink, water and a fruit basket on arrival, and twenty four hour security. Meals are not included.

Breakfast is brought to the villa in the morning at 15 USD per adult and 10 USD per child up to eleven years. A set dinner is served at the villa in the evening for parties of six or more at 35 USD per adult and 25 USD per child. You can also book a private chef and waiter for three days or more, cook for yourselves in either kitchen, or eat at the hotel restaurant.

Yes. An infrastructure tax of 4 USD per guest per day is collected by the property, along with anything you order there such as meals, laundry, the chef, groceries and excursions.

Fly into Zanzibar international airport, then drive about fifty kilometres north east, roughly an hour. Stone Town is about the same. There is no airstrip closer. The arrival transfer is free of charge on stays of five nights or more and otherwise costs 55 USD per car each way for up to four guests.

Yes, and the house is built for them: five bedrooms, a walled garden, a pool of its own and a kitchen. A baby cot is available on request. Children up to eleven years pay a lower price for breakfast and dinner, and the villa price itself is set by the number of guests whatever their age.

It is a reef beach with a big tidal range. At high tide you swim straight off the sand. At low tide the sea pulls back a long way across the flat, which is when you can walk out among the starfish and the seaweed lines. That is why the private pool matters here.

Two nights through most of the year, three nights from the tenth of January to the end of February and through July and August, and five nights over the festive window from 23 December to 9 January.

Mnemba atoll is about twenty minutes by boat from the shoreline and is the best reef in Zanzibar. Trips are booked through local dive centres rather than run by the property, and mornings are usually the calmest water.

July to October is the strongest window, with January and February a second dry spell. The long rains fall from March to May, April heaviest of all, and there are shorter rains in November and December. The sea sits between twenty five and twenty seven degrees all year.

Yes. Visitors to Zanzibar must hold the Zanzibar inbound travel insurance, 44 USD per person for the whole stay, bought online at visitzanzibar.go.tz before arrival. Tanzania residents are exempt. If you enter mainland Tanzania first for a safari, the mainland policy covers you instead. It is paid by you directly and is not part of our quote.
