A charming boutique hotel located on the stunning Jambiani beach along the south east coast of Zanzibar. There is very much a relaxed vibe at this cool little spot with excellent cuisine and fun beach atmosphere. The interiors are bright and airy and maintain a Swahili chic look across the hotel.
Set along a beautiful stretch of coastline, Sharazad offers an easy barefoot rhythm with four swimming pools, a spa and hammam, yoga shala, beach lounge and watersports, all wrapped within tropical gardens and ocean views. Sustainability runs through the hotel, from solar energy and desalinated water to strong community partnerships, with much of the team drawn from the local village.
Ideal for honeymooners, couples and families seeking understated luxury, Sharazad can also be combined with a stay in Stone Town for a fuller experience of Zanzibar.
Garden View Rooms
Set amongst tropical gardens, the Garden View Rooms offer a peaceful and relaxed retreat. Choose between elegant villa rooms ideal for couples or larger bungalows suited to families and friends. All rooms feature ensuite bathrooms, outdoor space, air conditioning and thoughtful touches including yoga mats, beach towels and Panama hats.
Sea View Rooms
Overlooking the Indian Ocean, the Sea View Rooms combine beautiful ocean vistas with easy beach access. Available as villa rooms or spacious bungalows, they offer stylish interiors, private outdoor areas and all the comforts needed for a relaxed Zanzibar escape.
Beach Front Suites
Positioned directly on the shoreline, the Beach Front Suites are perfect for those wanting to wake to the sound of the ocean. Spacious and beautifully designed, they feature private verandas, outdoor showers and flexible layouts ideal for couples, honeymooners or families.
Oasis Sea View Rooms
Just steps from the beach, the Oasis Sea View Rooms offer ocean views and added privacy. Particularly suited to families with older children or small groups, they combine generous space, outdoor showers and a peaceful tropical setting.
All rooms are equipped with room safe, Sharazad room essentials, coffee/tea facilities, a ceiling fan and mosquito net.
The hotel centres around a lovely little pool, beach bar and restaurant right by the beach. The restaurant has built up quite a reputation for excellent cuisine and friendly beach bar and attracts non residents as well as guests who enjoy the fun atmosphere.
This is a cool little spot and a new favourite of Safari&Beach. As well as the excellent bar/restaurant, we love the little touches like kikoys, beach bags and panama hats available for guests’ use during their stay.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.
Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.
The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.
Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
