Your Zanzibar Place, hotel in Paje

Located in Paje, a few steps from Paje Beach, Your Zanzibar Place has accommodations with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace.

Great location very close to the beach (not right on it though). Good food (try the seafood soup!). Fairly social vibe. The owner is cool and so is the staff (big up for Charlotte!). Optional monkey encounters (take care of your stuff). Mosquito nets provided on all beds.

Villa Upendo Paje, hotel in Paje

Villa Upendo Paje is located on the beachfront in Paje, a few steps from Paje Beach and 11 miles from Jozani Forest. The property provides a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests.

10/10 couldn’t fault a single thing! Great location close to the beach and plenty of restaurants. Room cleaning offered on a daily basis. Mariam was the perfect host, offered us breakfast and dinner & drinks free of charge multiple times. I fell ill whilst staying here and the hospitality was better than anything I could’ve imagined she got me medicine, regularly checked in and monitored me.

Mambo Leo Hostel, hotel in Paje

Located in Paje, within a 4-minute walk of Paje Beach and 12 miles of Jozani Forest, Mambo Leo Hostel has accommodations with a garden and a shared lounge, and free WiFi.

We loved Mambo Leo! Tatu was so lovely and it really felt like home. Our room was comfortable and clean - Tatu worked all day to keep the whole place spotless. We had stayed elsewhere in Paje before, and this was exponentially better for half the price. We loved staying in the village, it was quiet and felt more authentic, with access to tons of cheap, delicious local food. The wifi is also insanely fast!! This is the sweetest, homiest, quietest place in Paje!

New Teddy's on the Beach, hotel in Paje

Located in Jambiani, a few steps from Jambiani Beach, New Teddy's on the Beach provides accommodations with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a private beach area.

I didn't know that I had booked a dorm room with sand floors, so that was surprising, but not unpleasant. Excellent space (pool, slackline, bar) and great vibes. Awesome stay!

    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 .

    Excellent breakfast..great location and beautiful chill out zones. The dorms come equipped with a lockable safe and usb and normal and also EU plug sockets which is a nice touch. 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.
