Our Story
About Baobab Bungalows
A hidden oasis in Jambiani, Zanzibar — created with love, designed for escape.
Who We Are
Baobab Bungalows
by Zen Zero
Baobab Bungalows Zanzibar is a boutique resort created by Zen Zero — a passion project born from a deep love for Zanzibar's natural beauty, culture, and people. Located in the charming village of Jambiani on the east coast, we offer a genuine alternative to the large resort experience.
Our property is named after the magnificent baobab trees that stand on our grounds — ancient, resilient, and deeply rooted in African culture. Like the baobab, we aim to be a place of shelter, nourishment, and community.
We offer six bungalows and eight villa apartments, all nestled around our beautiful infinity pool, surrounded by lush tropical gardens. Whether you're here for a week or a month, Baobab Bungalows is your home in paradise.

What We Stand For
Our Values
Warm Hospitality
Every guest is family. Our team goes above and beyond to make your stay unforgettable — from airport pickups to planning your perfect day.
Eco-Conscious
Solar power, sustainable practices, and a deep respect for Zanzibar's natural beauty. We believe in responsible tourism.
Community First
We work with local guides, drivers, and businesses to ensure your tourism dollars benefit the Jambiani community.
Authentic Experience
Not a resort chain — a genuine, personal escape. Experience Zanzibar the way it should be: real, warm, and beautiful.
The Experience
More Than a Place to Sleep
Our cozy coffee bar under a beautiful makuti roof is the heart of Baobab Bungalows. Start your morning with a fresh coffee, meet fellow travelers, or simply watch the sun rise over the tropical garden.
Our team can arrange everything: snorkeling trips, deep-sea fishing, Jozani Forest tours, spice tours, sunset dhow cruises, and more. We work with trusted local guides to give you the authentic Zanzibar experience.
