The Z Hotel - The Details
While the beach front at Nungwi is lined with hotels, lodges and guest houses, the locals live in the windy narrow makeshift streets behind. There are local shops for any essentials and tourist shops to explore as well as beach shack stalls full of wonderful art and crafts.
The atmosphere at The Z Hotel is a buoyant one and there are always new friends to be made, cocktails to be sampled in the Cinnamon Bar and indulgent massages to be taken in the spa.
For those seeking the deserted powder white sand beaches that stretch on for miles (found on the east Coast) we often recommend a few nights at the Z hotel as it is the perfect destination, if not ‘the destination’ in Nungwi and great to experience after a week or so of chilling out. Naturally, The Z is also perfect for many couples, single travellers and groups of friends who prefer to be in the buzz of Nungwi with restaurants and bars lining the coast.
