Paje · south-east Zanzibar
A warm, family-run guesthouse a short walk from one of the island's best kitesurf beaches — handcrafted Swahili rooms, a green tropical garden, and the kind of welcome the name promises.
Karibu — you are welcome
Karibu House sits in the village itself — close enough to walk to the beach bars and yoga decks, far enough to fall asleep to crickets. Rooms are dressed in handwoven kanga and kitenge, mornings are slow, and the family that runs the house treats every guest like one of their own.
Rooms
Hand-carved Zanzibar beds, mosquito nets, air-conditioning and colourful local textiles — slow mornings guaranteed.
A peaceful double designed for slow mornings — carved bed, net, AC and warm Swahili textiles.
Your own private terrace over the tropical garden, with a sleek kitchenette and bright island colours.
A spacious family or group retreat that blends authentic Zanzibar charm with room for everyone.
The house
Frangipani and palms shade the garden; breakfast is served whenever you wake. The family helps you arrange everything — kite lessons, a dhow sunset, a spice tour — so the only thing you plan is nothing at all.
Paje life
“A warm, welcoming little place right in Paje. The room was beautiful and authentically Zanzibari, the family could not have been kinder, and the beach is a short walk away.”
“Peaceful, clean and full of character. They helped us organise a dhow trip and a kite lesson — exactly the relaxed Zanzibar we were hoping for.”
“The hospitality is the real luxury here. We felt completely at home — and the location in the village is perfect.”
