Company information

More Africa NGO is established in 2015 by the Dutch Ellen van Beers. In 2019 More Africa Guesthouse opened her doors in Paje. While staying at this guesthouse, you will donate directly to the NGO. When you decide to come to More Africa, don´t expect a typical resort and also don’t expect a party place for backpackers. More Africa is located in the local community of Paje and its main purpose is to educate our children with special needs through special education and physical therapy. More Africa is in the first place an non profitable organization. This means that, after salary of our staff and payments to the local authorities, all the profit from the bungalows and our restaurant goes straight to the project. You directly support our project when you decide to stay with us. Thank you for that! Because of our project we are located in the local village. Unlike other resorts that are isolated from the villages and the locals, we are looking for a different kind of traveler. A traveler that is interested in community work, sustainable tourism & culture instead of a random beach holiday.

Property information

More Africa Guesthouse is an NGO for children with disabilities in Paje, Zanzibar. We provide special education, physical therapy and medical help to children all over Zanzibar. While staying with us, you will donate directly to our NGO. A very unique experience! More Africa offers 10 en-suite double, triple, quadruple and familyrooms. Children are welcome! They can use our outside playground (on own risk) when the school is closed. Our 2 deluxe double rooms have hot water and a bathroom door. The other rooms unfortunately don't have hot water, but when you shower during sunny daytime you will have a hot shower anyway ;)  We provide a nice curtain for the bathrooms to provide your privacy. Our pool is still under construction so unfortunately not able to use yet. More Africa is located 800meter from the finest beach in Paje. We provide a free shuttle service 2 times per day, free of charge for our guests.

Neighbourhood information

Paje village is safe and the locals are very friendly. Our guests can walk through the village at daytime without any problems. To respect the local culture and traditions we will ask you to wear appropriate clothes when you walk through the village (cover knees and shoulders). Don’t walk outside after dark (18.30), but ask us to arrange a taxi for you! More Africa Guesthouse can arrange all kids of tours and excursions for you. Karibu sana!
