Zanzibar private villas & houses

Amazing places for private villas & houses in Zanzibar

Enjoy the powder-white beaches, coconut palms and turquoise water of Zanzibar from your own private villa. On the east coast, there is a lovely private house for use by a family or small group travelling together.
The bedrooms and communal areas allow for privacy and space as well as sociable intermingling - and guests can also use the facilities of a very good nearby lodge.
