Gold Zanzibar Beach House &Spa – Luxury at Kendwa Beach, Nungwi, Zanzibar

About Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa

Gold Zanzibar Beach House & Spa is an Italian-owned boutique resort on Kendwa Beach Zanzibar’s tide-free northern shore, widely considered the island’s finest stretch of sand for all-day swimming. Established and run by the Azzola family, the resort deliberately keeps its capacity limited to 76 rooms to ensure exceptional privacy and personal service, a philosophy that sets it apart from the larger all-inclusive neighbours in the Nungwi/Kendwa area. The architecture combines African and Arab influences with a fresh contemporary design sensibility: warm golden tones, carved decorative elements, quality wooden furniture, and 70sqm Deluxe rooms that are among Zanzibar’s most spacious.

Four room categories Deluxe Garden View (70sqm), Deluxe Ocean View (70sqm), Suite and Suite Pavilion (90sqm), and three Beachfront Villas (200sqm, private veranda, hot tub, private butlers  all have private terraces. The widest swimming pool on Zanzibar is the resort’s centrepiece, overlooked by two restaurants serving acclaimed a la carte and gourmet menus. The Healing Earth Spa uses organic, locally sourced ingredients. A community foundation the Sofia Luna Azzola Foundation supports social and environmental projects in Kendwa village.
