Over View:
Essque Zalu aims to create the ultimate holiday experience
and will fine tune every aspect of your stay to fit your personal preferences.
This is also one of the very best locations to be in if you like to walk out of
the hotel and explore the local area, with the turtle conservation project, the
lighthouse, and the village of Nungwi with markets, bars and restaurants just a
few minutes’ walk away.
With no traditional reception at the resort, a specially
selected and trained ‘Navigator’ greets you as you enter and guides you to your
Suite or Villa, passing the cascading water wall and helping to unravel the
pathways and gardens for you to experience all Zalu has to offer. Space and
light are in abundance and well thought out quirky understated design features
continue to impress as you get to know the Zalu landscape. Sun bathing Islands
jut out into the swimming pool and individually operated massage jets are
dotted around the pool side, whist the Jacuzzi flows into the main pool,
bubbling into life as and when guests wish.
Guests are friends and navigators hosts at this fresh and
exciting new Nungwi property. The changing definition of luxury for a
generation of conscientious travellers manifests itself here in a distinctive
break for the body, soul and mind.

‘Navigators’ is unique to Essque Zalu and the on-going development of the team
keeps them poised to give the best service in front of and behind the scenes to
enhance guests’ experiences. The focus on social responsibility is evident in
