A Tropical State of Mind

The Sands Beach Resort Zanzibar is located on the peaceful south-east coast of Zanzibar, facing the wide beach and open views of Dongwe Bay.

Set within a large tropical property, the resort offers spacious rooms and villas, a private beach, a large swimming pool, restaurant and beach bar. With only 20 rooms and villas, The Sands keeps a relaxed and personal atmosphere, appreciated by families, couples and friends looking for comfort, privacy and easy days by the ocean.

All the Space You Need

At The Sands, space is part of the experience. Families enjoy the freedom of generous villas, open gardens, the beach and the large swimming pool. Couples find quiet corners, sea views and privacy. Groups of friends can choose larger villas, including private pool options, and enjoy the resort at an easy rhythm.

The Sands is not about formal luxury. It is about clean and well-kept spaces, friendly attentive service, good food, a charming beach bar and the simple pleasure of feeling close to the Indian Ocean.
