Location and surroundings

The Palms Zanzibar stands directly on the fine sandy beach of Bwejuu, a quiet place on the south-east coast of Zanzibar. In front of the property lies the turquoise water of the Indian Ocean, and palm trees line the grounds. The area is considered peaceful and is well suited to long walks by the sea and quiet hours on the beach. Smaller villages and local excursion providers are nearby. Excursion destinations such as Jozani Forest are also easy to reach from Bwejuu. The drive from Zanzibar Airport to the property takes around one hour.

Bwejuu is a good starting point for a beach stay in the south-east of the island. You can find further accommodation for your time in Zanzibar in the overview of lodges in Zanzibar.

Rooms and facilities

The Palms Zanzibar consists of 7 villas, each measuring over 140 m². Each villa has a large bedroom, a bathroom, a separate living room and a large private terrace with a daybed. Each also has its own small private pool. The furnishings combine handmade furniture with fine fabrics and warm colours in the style of Zanzibar. The shared facilities of the property include a spa, a restaurant and a bar. You can also use the facilities of the neighbouring sister resort.

Nkoaranga Orphanage

The Nkoaranga orphanage at the foot of Mount Meru has existed since 1997; around 30 children up to the age of three live there with 12 carers. Instead of a fixed contribution, Wildfinder Safaris regularly buys supplies for the orphanage: groceries, toiletries and similar items.
