Dining by design

The beach in Zanzibar is beautiful at any time of the day or night, and there is nothing as romantic or atmospheric as enjoying a „barefoot” lunch or candlelit beach dinner with a private bonfire, African music, and a selection of drinks.  The Zuri Zanzibar’s restaurant offers the unique opportunity of experiencing a magical moment under the starriest of skies.

From fancy cocktails on the pool deck, a live cooking show in the spacious villa’s kitchen, live music on the terrace, to a delicious dinner prepared by your own personal chef, or a private barbeque or gala dinner, the Zuri Villa is the perfect venue for your most special occasion.

Whatever culinary delicacy you would like to discover and taste, the Zuri team is able to organize cooking lessons of many local and international recipes. Get involved from the very first step by picking your own fresh ingredients at the local market, read up on Swahili recipes, and then prepare and savour your own delicious dinner. Live an amazing experience alongside one of the hotel’s exceptional chefs.

As a tribute to the Middle-East’s huge influence on Zanzibari culture and cuisine, regular events are organized on the pool pergola to enable guests to discover the region’s very special gastronomy.  Guests sit on cushions whilst enjoying shishas and drinks, and then feast on delicious, traditional food from Oman and other Middle Eastern regions.
