Villa Upendo Paje, hotel in Paje

Located in Paje and within 100 metres of Paje Beach, Villa Upendo Paje features a terrace, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi throughout the property.

The room was tidy and worth the money we spent. The host Nina was very cordial, she has ensured that we were given basic info about the area where its located and where we could find decent food. When there was an internet issue too she ensured that it was addressed. Overall as a host she is fantastic, otherwise the location is awesome and the entire white theme is beautiful 😍

Sunny House Paje II, hotel in Paje

Sunny House Paje II is situated in Paje, 13 km from Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park. The property is close to Paje Beach, Airborne Kite & Surf Village and Paje By Kite - Zanzibar.

Good location, near to Paje beach as well as close to the main circle of Paje. You can get all kinds of transport to go either way of Paje, or to go to the airport / stone town. Nice homely stay experience. Do not expect hotel-like amenities. It is a simple homestay. Both the hosts, Axel and Sarah, are chill personalities. Sometimes, the neighborhood local kiddos visit this place. You can have a bit of fun time with them.

All hostels in Paje
Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Definitely the best hostel I ever tried. The staff is amazing, and the atmosphere is really nice. Beautiful beach is just around the corner, and 5 minutes to city centre. Location is unbeatable. Authentic bungalows and YZP is surrounded with many palm trees and beautiful garden. Rare red colobus monkeys are coming to visit place as well .

The staff were incredible especially madeleine who went out of her way to make sure I am happy. Modern feel to the hostel and relaxing vibes.

    I liked the location upfront the beach which offers every days an amazing view. The environnement was really nice, it's usually full of young backpackers so really easy to meet new people and hang out with. The housekeepers makes a good job. The host Zuri and Kayse are nice. There is a security guide everynight for our safety. The brothers Abdul and Anu are very nice, also Anu is a taxi driver which offers really good price to go everywhere. I used his services to Jambiani, Nungwi and Stone Town.
