Zanzibar is a new investment destination

Today, you can invest in real estate in Zanzibar starting at $80,000 for a 40–50 m² apartment just 300 metres from the sea. A fully furnished villa with a swimming pool and two bedrooms is available from $135,000, with minimal utility costs of up to $120 per month. The projected return on initial projects is 12%, and purchasing in the early stages of construction provides a strategic advantage due to low competition and potential for value growth. Tourist traffic is growing rapidly: in 2024, Zanzibar was visited by more than 800,000 tourists, and by 2030, 2 million are expected. Infrastructure is expanding - the airport has been enlarged, direct flights from Europe have been launched, and international hotel brands such as Four Seasons, Anantara and Hilton are showing high demand for real estate. Today, the island attracts both tourists and investors, creating a unique combination of high returns and long-term capitalisation prospects.
