Located on Zanzibar’s Northern tip approximately one hours drive from Stone Town and Zanzibar airport. The resort has an imposing thatched main area that opens out towards the vast swimming pool and gardens that surround the property. The rooms are split on either side of the main area with the pool running directly down to a large jetty which houses a pretty bar and lounge area. Essque Zalu Zanzibar has 40 main suites, as well as 9 villas with either 3 or 4 rooms in each.
The main suites are split between Ocean Front, Sea View and Garden View and all have different prices. They come complete with spacious bedrooms, flat screen TV’s as well as a lounge area and outside balcony. The 9 villas are all similar to the main suites inside but all have their own private pools as well as in room dining and massage, kitchen facilities and terrace or balcony. One of the only hotels on Zanzibar with a kids club, and many facilities that you would expect from a good boutique hotel, such as a spa and gym and others that you wouldn’t such as an art gallery.
The emphasis at Essque Zalu is on delivering a personalised experience and the staff - or "navigators" as they like to be called - will happily assist you in arranging your days whether it's a daytrip to Stone Town, a kite-surfing or scuba diving adventure or a romantic sunset dhow cruise.
