Overview

Welcome to The Mangrove Lodge: A Warm, Eco-Friendly Escape in Zanzibar The Mangrove Lodge is a family-run, eco-conscious resort blending local charm with a touch of Italian style. Nestled near the Spice Farm area in the peaceful countryside outside Stone Town, our lodge offers a tranquil retreat with just 10 private rooms set in 5 double bungalows, all surrounded by lush tropical gardens. A few steps from your bungalow is a serene, sandy beach—perfect for swimming and watching the breathtaking sunsets over the clear, calm waters of the Indian Ocean. In our thatched-roof restaurant and chill-out area overlooking the mangrove bay, we serve fresh, authentic meals and refreshing drinks. For a truly special experience, we also offer lunch and dinner right on the beach at our beach bar. Our premises are rich in history, as they once belonged to the palace of Sultan Barghash, a ruler instrumental in shaping Zanzibar’s cultural and historical legacy. This unique connection adds a layer of charm and significance to your stay. Our commitment to responsible tourism means we respect and support Haji’s home village and the local community, ensuring your stay has a positive impact on the area. Every day, we offer exciting experiences to help you discover the rich culture and beauty of Zanzibar, from guided tours and activities to helpful tips for independent travelers. Transfers and tours can be arranged to make your stay both seamless and memorable.
