Rooms & Facilities at The Palms, Zanzibar
When you’re not enjoying the award-winning beaches, expertly-curated cuisine, and the comfort of your luxury cabin, you may wish to take a dip in the main pool, fringed by gently swaying palm trees. For that added dose of privacy, your villa also comes complete with its own plunge pool. Dive the Indian Ocean with the only National Geographic registered dive centre on the island. Sail a traditional Swahili dhow. Learn to climb a coconut palm with just a rope, or how to play a traditional African board game. Head to the Water Club for your fill of water sports, or rent a bicycle and explore the breath-taking coastline.
The Palms, Zanzibar Experience
Of course, The Palms Zanzibar is not just about sun and swim. The resort gives guests a real opportunity to tap into Zanzibari history and culture. Head to the library to pick up a book about the island, or take a class in Swahili, palm weaving, or cooking with native spices. Aside from the tours and excursions offered at the Guest Relations Desk, The Palms also offers a selection of community-based activities. Visit the nearby village of Bwejuu to see how Zanzibaris live and work, for example.
