The Nest Boutique Resort  

On Paje's shoreline in Zanzibar — a beachfront boutique resort steps from Paje Beach and roughly a 10-minute drive to Jambiani Beach, Maalum Cave Pool and the Kite Centre Zanzibar. The property sits about 1 km from the town center and offers on-site parking and airport transfers.

Natural simplicity is the mantra here. Housed in a two-floor wooden structure facing the Indian Ocean, the Nest mixes bohemian décor with palms and sea-breeze views. Rooms feature private balconies or patios; standard comforts include mini-bars, bathrobes and showers, with amenities varying by room category.

Soak in the outdoor pool, unwind with onsite massages at the spa, or keep active in the fitness center and diving club. Two beach bars, a bar/lounge and a coffee shop serve drinks and snacks, while a tour desk and concierge arrange excursions and transfers. Expect picnic spots, laundry services, and a relaxed beachfront vibe where kite surfers glide by.

Complimentary wireless internet is available in rooms and public areas, plus a 24-hour front desk and free self-parking to keep logistics easy.

Home to Paje's first 100% vegetarian beachfront restaurant, the resort focuses on local, fresh ingredients and healthy plates inspired by a philosophy of non-violence. There's also a restaurant, coffee shop/café, bar/lounge and two beach bars. A complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily from 8:00 AM to 10:30 AM.
