Hotel for Sale – Paje, Zanzibar
Price: USD 672,000 – Negotiable
An exciting opportunity to acquire an operational boutique hotel in Paje, one of Zanzibar’s most established and rapidly developing tourism destinations.
Positioned on a 900 m² plot along the main road, the property has been purpose-built for hospitality and currently offers 10 guest rooms, restaurant and leisure facilities, a reception and administration building, and a 16-metre swimming pool. With approximately 498 m² of existing built area and provision for future expansion, the property presents an attractive opportunity for an investor or hospitality operator looking to enter or expand within the Zanzibar tourism market.
Accommodation
The hotel comprises five separate guest houses, each arranged over a ground and first floor. Each house contains two guest rooms, providing a total of 10 existing rooms.
Each guest room measures approximately 18.6 m² and includes a private 6.6 m² bathroom, separate entrance and private terrace. Ground-floor rooms also benefit from private rear courtyards measuring approximately 7.4 m².
There are 10 private terraces across the property, each measuring approximately 6.4 m².
The five guest houses provide a combined built area of approximately 277 m².
Restaurant and Leisure Facilities
The property features a multi-level restaurant and leisure building designed to provide guests with dedicated dining, entertainment and relaxation spaces.
The ground floor includes a 32 m² dining area, 10 m² kitchen and 6.25 m² guest WC.
The first floor offers approximately 48.5 m² of additional restaurant space, while the second floor provides a 48.5 m² yoga and relaxation area with elevated views towards the ocean.
The total restaurant and leisure building area is approximately 148.5 m².
Reception and Administration
A dedicated 72 m² reception building supports the day-to-day operation of the hotel and includes a reception area, manager’s office, technical room and staff WC.
Swimming Pool
At the heart of the property is a 16-metre swimming pool, creating a central leisure and relaxation area for hotel guests.
Expansion Potential
One of the property's key investment advantages is its potential for further development.
The structure above the reception building has already been prepared to accommodate two additional floors, with the potential to create approximately six additional large en-suite guest rooms.
A further three en-suite guest rooms can potentially be developed above the restaurant building.
Subject to the necessary approvals, this could increase the hotel's accommodation capacity from the existing 10 rooms to approximately 19 rooms, providing significant potential to increase future revenue and overall asset value.
Location
Located in Paje, Zanzibar, the hotel is positioned within one of the island’s most active tourism and hospitality markets. Paje has developed into an internationally recognised destination known for its beaches, water sports, restaurants, nightlife and growing hospitality sector.
The surrounding area continues to attract international residents, developers and tourism investors, contributing to the ongoing development of the destination.
Investment Opportunity
With an existing operational hospitality setup, 10 guest rooms, restaurant and leisure facilities, a 16-metre swimming pool and substantial expansion potential, this property offers an attractive entry into Zanzibar’s growing tourism market.
The combination of existing infrastructure and the potential to increase capacity to approximately 19 rooms makes the property suitable for an independent boutique hotel, lifestyle hospitality concept, retreat or investment operation.
