On the powder-soft shores of Paje Beach on Zanzibar’s idyllic east coast, Zanzibar White Sand Luxury Villas & Spa is a family-owned Relais & Châteaux retreat blending barefoot elegance with sustainable luxury. Nineteen private villas and three Cinnamon rooms are spread across four hectares of lush coastal gardens, each villa with its own pool and dedicated butler. Two restaurants and three bars showcase garden-to-table dining, while a world-class spa, infrared sauna and steam room invite deep relaxation. Adventure-seekers can take to the turquoise water at the resort’s kitesurfing and wing-foiling centre, or join complimentary daily yoga and cinema nights. Powered by wind and solar, it’s the perfect Indian Ocean finale to an African safari.
