Our small independent hotel has been welcoming guests to experience the simplicity and serenity of the Zanzibari lifestyle, since 2004.
A beachfront haven of tranquility situated on the northern tip of Zanzibar, overlooking the beautiful turquoise coastline of Nungwi.
Individually styled cottages are set in lush tropical African gardens, surrounded by coconut palms, frangipani flowers, avocado and banana trees, aloe vera and of course flame trees.
Each room has a spacious veranda and is individually decorated with a blend of locally made Swahili wood furniture, traditional Zanzibari beds and antique pieces.
Take a dip in our garden pool, laze on your veranda or hammock before ambling through the garden gate to explore the beach, snorkel or swim or enjoy a dhow sail. It’s like living in a lush tropical garden on the beach.
Flame Tree has a deep commitment to the local community.
The majority of our staff are from the local fishing village of Nungwi. We are passionate about using local suppliers and local labour was used for the construction of the hotel.
Couples, honeymooners, independent travellers, families, divers and yogis are all welcome!
Health Improvement Project Zanzibar (HIPZ) is a small and highly effective charity that wants every person in Zanzibar to have access to the health care that they need. From the grassroots to the Government, HIPZ is embedded in every level of the health care system in Zanzibar and we are a catalyst for positive change. We run our flagship programme HIPZ in Hospitals, bring visiting medics to Zanzibar, work in the community and strengthen systems at hospital and government level. The HIPZ model is a whole healthcare system approach. We work at every level – from empowering the staff on the ground to drive up the quality of care in the wards to collaborating with the Ministry of Health to make changes at policy level that will help every Zanzibari to access better healthcare.
