Overview
LUX* Marijani is paradise defined: an iconic sandy beach on the island’s tranquil northeast coast, the brilliant blue waters of the Zanzibar archipelago, an Arab architecture with a coastal Swahili vibe inspired by the Spice Islands’ storied past, the most creative dining experiences, wellbeing at every corner, and a curated collection of truly extraordinary experiences. LUX* Marijani is an invitation to celebrate Life Extraordinary in Zanzibar. From the moment you step inside LUX* Marijani, you feel the energy: calming, invigorating. Maybe it’s the salty air, the glow of the sun, or the lush tropical gardens. Rise at dawn for an early morning beach jog, swim laps in the pool, plunge into the warm Indian Ocean, or practice yoga on a sandbank. Be sure to keep an eye open for the indigenous forest, the perfect place to get into ‘Forest bathing’. LUX* Marijani promises a calm and relaxation getaway.
