Dhow Inn Boutique Hotel

Paje sits along Zanzibar’s southeast coast, facing a shallow lagoon shaped by tides and coral reefs. The area is less urban than Stone Town and more open than the northern resort zones, defined by long beach walks, palm-lined paths, and a steady flow of travelers drawn to the sea. Life here follows the rhythm of the tides, with mornings active and evenings slower, centered around beachside dining and local cafés.
