With a perfect location on the Nungwi Peninsula on Zanzibar’s North Coast, the only location in the north where both sunset and sunrise can be seen, Mnarani Beach Cottages is a peaceful resort surrounded by white sand beaches and overlooking the blue waters of the Indian Ocean. In our small haven, our history and stories run deep and the exotic, fragrance filled gardens embrace your garden or sea view en-suite accommodation. Check out of the rat race and be spoiled for choice with your options, away from everyday life.

A happy place. Chill out on sun beds, sofas, swings and hammocks either on your terrace, by the pool or on the deck area overlooking the sea. Grab a book from our library, swim, snorkel, scuba dive, sail, explore Zanzibar and have fun in togetherness. Sip cocktails in our deck bar and feel yourself sink into the peace. Listen to the ocean and watch the local dhow boats pass by. Enjoy our freshly prepared homemade food featuring traditional Swahili and international dishes, not forgetting the fresh seafood and variety of spices the island is famed for.
