Shooting Star Boutique Hotel is located at the beach in Kiwengwa. Surrounded by tropical gardens with stunning views across the Indian Ocean, the lodge features an outdoor pool and spa.

The lodge has a restaurant and beach bar.

Staying is this hotel was beautiful experience - hotel is located at the very end of beach and gives an escape from bysy Kiwengwa beach. You can relax at hotel and have some fun at the beach - best of both. Infinity pool and view from it was best feature - no other hotel in Zanzibar has view like Shooting Star. Breakfast was good, staff was very welcoming and helpful. If you want peaceful stay, beautiful views and still be close to activities and local restaurants - this is the best hotel. One additional recommendation - when staying at this hotel - have dinner/lunch at Amour restaurant nearby - you will not regret it.

Located 70 metres from Pwani Mchangani Beach, Mambo Cabana offers a garden, a terrace and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving African, American and Mediterranean cuisine.

First and foremost, the location was simply breathtaking, and its just a short walk away from the beach. The room was perfect and spacious, with plenty of storage. The entire place was beautifully decorated. The staff deserves special recognition for their exceptional hospitality. From the moment I arrived, they greeted me warmly and went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem!

    Wow! Our stay at Z-Lodge was absolutely incredible.Room: beauty of the natural materials used in the furniture and the lovely paintings on the walls. Garden, 2 pools, ocean cliffs- It was like paradise. But the real highlight was definitely the restaurant on the ocean pier. The food was out of this world, and the views were breathtaking. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We will be happy to plan our next visit!

    We loved the presentation of the food, the location is central so all areas is accesible from here. The beach was nice and private, we were feasting on fresh fruits everyday, highly recommend the seafood soup, and super nice staff all the time. `The rooms are Seaview and with a large restaurant deck over the water. Thank you Z-lodge crew.

    We had a lovely stay in Z lodge, we found their profile on instagram and we selected this place for the food, and private location. My wife and I wanted to escape to Zanzibar to rejuvenate and relax, really nice cocktails by Sammy at their beach bar. The staff was super helpful and friendly, we can recommend this place to everyone.

    We had a great time there. Stayed for almost two weeks, and everything was really good. The beach, the food, the room, which got cleaned every day. We highly recommend to book programs with Papaa Njoe Kidapa, we went on blue safari with him and it was an excellent day. The staff were amazing, glad that we’ve met such friendly and helpful people.

The staff were incredibly friendly and that combined with the incredible ocean view , beautiful clean lodges and wonderfully prepared food means that we will definitely be coming back . It was the most perfect place to unwind and relax. Thank you to Martin and his team for an incredible week in Paradise.

    The hotel is very nice and a good mix compromise between a large "resort" style hotel and some of the small lodges. The price is relatively expensive compared to the quality of some services (WIFI, no TV in the room, light on the terrace not working)
