Is Zanzibar expensive?

Zanzibar offers options for many budgets. Budget guesthouses, mid-range beach hotels, boutique lodges, and ultra-luxury resorts are all available. Costs depend on location, season, meal plan, room category, and activities. Nungwi, Kendwa, Matemwe, and private island-style resorts may be more expensive, while village-based stays and guesthouses can be more affordable.
