Whether you’re a beach lover, culture explorer or simply ready to tap into your soft life era, Zanzibar delivers the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.
From spice farm tours and sunset dhow cruises, to snorkelling over vibrant coral reefs, this island is your playground for unforgettable moments.
With its laid-back charm and beautiful coastline, Zanzibar is one of East Africa’s most sought-after island destinations.
We’re offering two July departures:
11–18 July: ages 27–35
21–28 July: ages 21–35
So… let’s go Out of Office to Zanzibar!
Set within the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Stone Town, this beautiful oceanfront stay pairs Zanzibar’s rich heritage with the kind of understated luxury we love.
Combining traditional Zanzibari architecture with contemporary elegance, this seafront retreat strikes the perfect balance between culture and coastal calm. Step outside and you’re moments from the historic streets of Stone Town and just steps from the white-sand shoreline Zanzibar is known for.
The hotel features a curated selection of restaurants and lounges serving both local flavours and international favourites, alongside an oceanfront infinity pool and spa facilities designed for full relaxation mode.
For this 3-night stay, you will be accommodated in the Standard Room overlooking Stone Town, offering a comfortable and well-appointed base in the heart of the historic district.
Twin beds in ‘shared’ rooms are subject to availability.Stone Town Accommodation
Standard Room
An exclusive boutique beachfront retreat with a refined, nature-led feel, set in Kiwengwa, along the northeastern coral coastline of Zanzibar.
The resort is home to a collection of private villas, alongside a thoughtfully curated restaurant and relaxed social spaces. Guests can unwind by the infinity pool, stay active in the spacious two-floor gym, and enjoy a range of leisure experiences, all carefully designed to harmonise with the surrounding tropical landscape.
Designed for travellers who value serenity, nature and a strong sense of place, the experience goes beyond a traditional beach stay. Every detail is considered, creating an atmosphere that feels both contemporary and deeply connected to Zanzibar’s coastal beauty.
For this 4-night stay, you’ll have the option of beachfront villas or oceanfront villas, each offering a peaceful, design-led space to fully switch off and settle into island time.

Daily Itinerary

Day 1
Welcome to Zanzibar!
Once you’ve arrived, cleared the airport and checked into your Stone Town hotel, take some time to settle in and soak up your first taste of the island. Enjoy the hotel facilities, explore the surroundings or simply unwind after your journey.
In the evening, we’ll come together for our welcome dinner, the perfect chance to meet the group, ease into the trip and officially kick off our Zanzibar experience.
-
Day 2
Start the morning with our welcome breakfast, a relaxed moment to fuel up and properly connect with the group before the day’s adventures begin.
Afterwards, we’ll head out for a guided spice farm experience, learning about the island’s rich spice heritage.
In the afternoon, we’ll explore the historic Stone Town, visiting key cultural sites, museums and local markets.
-
Day 3
After breakfast, we head out for one of Zanzibar’s most iconic experiences.
We’ll take a traditional wooden dhow boat to Changuu (Prison) Island, where you’ll enjoy a guided walking tour and the chance to see the famous giant tortoises up close.
From there, we continue to the beautiful Nakupenda Sandbank for a beachside barbecue lunch and time to relax by the crystal-clear waters.
-
Day 4
Today we transition to Zanzibar’s northeastern coast.
After breakfast and check-out, we’ll transfer from Stone Town to our beachfront resort in Kiwengwa, where a more relaxed rhythm awaits.
Once you’ve checked in to your villa, take time to settle into the new surroundings, explore the property or unwind by the ocean.
The remainder of the day is yours to enjoy at leisure.
-
Day 5
After a chilled breakfast, we’ll head out for a nature-filled adventure.
First is a visit to Jozani National Park, home to Zanzibar’s famous red colobus monkeys, for a guided forest walk through the island’s largest national park. Afterwards, we continue to Asalaam Cave, where you’ll have the unique opportunity to swim with turtles before returning to the resort.
-
Day 6
Today we head out to explore the stunning reefs of Mnemba Island.
This full day snorkelling experience takes you into some of Zanzibar’s most pristine waters, known for their vibrant marine life and calm, crystal-clear conditions. Keep your eyes peeled for colourful reef fish and, if we’re lucky, playful dolphins.
-
Day 7
Today is a free leisure day to enjoy at your own pace.
Whether that looks like beach time, poolside lounging, spa moments or simply switching off completely, the day is yours to design.
In the evening, we’ll come together one last time for our farewell dinner, a chance to dress up, celebrate the trip and toast to the new friendships and memories made.
-
Day 8
Departure Day
After breakfast and a final slow morning in paradise, it’s time to check out and prepare for your transfer to Zanzibar Airport for your journey home.
We hope you’re leaving with new friendships, unforgettable memories and a camera roll full of enjoyment.

If you have a friend you want to share a room with, we recommend booking together by selecting 2 for quantity on the booking page. You will then have to pay 2 deposits.
If you are a solo traveller who has booked a shared room, you can find someone to share with either through the group chat, events, or we can facilitate pairing you up.

Yes! Travel insurance is a must - make sure that it covers water related activities.

Both villa types offer the same interior standard, size and comfort.
The difference is the location and outlook. Garden View Villas are set within the resort’s lush tropical grounds, while Beachfront Villas are positioned closer to the shoreline with direct sea-facing views.
