DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Zanzibar-Nungwi

A shimmering jewel on the northern tip of Zanzibar Island, the DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Zanzibar-Nungwi commands attention with its sumptuous design and idyllic location along the pristine beaches of Nungwi. As guests enter the lobby, they're greeted by a fusion of traditional Zanzibar elements - striking Makuti palm thatched roofs juxtaposed with sleek, modern furnishings - that captures the island's spirit while offering impeccable comfort. The open lounge exudes a warm, inviting atmosphere, featuring tables for games and a well-stocked bar serving a delightful variety of beverages. This setting provides the perfect vantage point for breathtaking Indian Ocean sunsets that set the sky ablaze each evening. Dining options are equally captivating; the Ngalawa Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with live entertainment, while the Fisherman's Bar & Grill tempts with mouthwatering international and fusion specialties. The Dolphins Pool Bar offers refreshing drinks alongside uninterrupted views of the turquoise water, inviting guests to relax under the swaying palm trees or take a refreshing dip in the sprawling freshwater pool.

Explore the Local Area

Nestled just a five-minute stroll from the vibrant heart of Nungwi Village, the resort is ideally situated for those looking to immerse themselves in local culture. Nearby attractions include the endangered Nungwi Marine Turtles at Mnarani (0.5 km), the artistic flare of Dr. Bulugu Gallery (1 km), and the celebrated beaches with their golden sands. Guests can easily explore traditional fishing practices or indulge in local handicrafts such as henna tattoos. With Kisauni Airport lying just 65 km away, transport is straightforward, and the surrounding areas offer a blend of lively markets and serene coastal beauty.

“The resort places guests directly on Nungwi Beach, offering immediate access to both relaxation and water sports.
