The Residence Zanzibar
About The Residence Zanzibar
A secluded luxury villa resort on Zanzibar’s southwest coast, offering privacy, space, and direct beach access.
The Residence Zanzibar is a luxury beachfront resort set along the southwest coast of the island, near the village of Kizimkazi. Designed as a low-density villa retreat, the property spreads across expansive tropical gardens that lead directly to the Indian Ocean. The resort’s layout prioritizes space and privacy, with freestanding villas rather than traditional hotel rooms, creating a quiet, residential atmosphere throughout the grounds.
Accommodation consists entirely of private villas, each featuring generous indoor living areas and individual outdoor space. Many villas include private swimming pools, shaded terraces, and garden views, while higher-category options offer closer proximity to the shoreline. The design blends contemporary comfort with subtle Swahili and Omani influences, using natural materials and neutral tones that complement the surrounding landscape.
Public spaces are deliberately understated, allowing the focus to remain on the villas, beach, and open surroundings. Dining venues, pools, and spa facilities are spread out to maintain a calm flow, while pathways connect gardens to the beach. The overall experience suits travelers seeking seclusion, slower pacing, and a resort stay removed from busier parts of Zanzibar.
