HI Zanzibar
Ahoi and a warm welcome to HI Zanzibar – your home port in Zanzibar!
Here, where the waves wash onto powder-white sands and the wind tells old stories, you'll find a little paradise run by a German couple who made Zanzibar their home – with heart, reliability, and true passion.
Seven unique rooms – furnished with handcrafted furniture made from old dhow boats that have been given a second life here in Zanzibar – invite you to dock, unwind, and experience the true island vibe.
In our restaurant, two local chefs cook fresh meals every day with passion and heart. At our two-story Hi Skybar, our bartender crafts top-notch cocktails under the open sky – with panoramic views of the sea, palm trees, and the most spectacular sunsets in Zanzibar.
Our logo – the bearded sailor with the friendly “Say HI” – represents the soul of our house: genuine hospitality, a love for the ocean, and deep respect for the culture and craftsmanship of this special island.
Cast off – welcome to HI Zanzibar.
