Castle Residence is a modern residential development located in one of Zanzibar’s most sought-after coastal areas. The project features a curated mix of studios and 1–2 bedroom apartments, designed for both lifestyle buyers and investors seeking quality construction, functional layouts and solid rental appeal.

Set in a quiet residential environment just 180 meters from the beach, Castle Residence combines privacy, everyday comfort and close proximity to one of the island’s most iconic shorelines, making it suitable for both personal use and short-term rental strategies.

Castle Residence represents a new generation of residential projects in Zanzibar, combining contemporary design, efficient layouts and a strategic coastal location. Situated in Paje, one of the island’s most vibrant and internationally recognized beach destinations, the project responds to growing demand for well-designed properties suited for both personal use and rental income.

The development offers a mix of studios and 1–2 bedroom apartments, allowing buyers to choose between compact, efficient units and more spacious solutions with separate bedrooms. All apartments are designed with open-plan living areas, natural light and private outdoor spaces, ensuring comfort in a tropical environment.

One of the project’s key strengths is its proximity to the beach, reachable in just a short walk, while remaining set back from the most crowded beachfront zones. This balance makes Castle Residence particularly attractive for residents seeking tranquility without sacrificing access to the sea, beach clubs and local amenities.

Paje has emerged as one of Zanzibar’s most dynamic coastal micro-markets, where lifestyle appeal meets solid investment fundamentals.

Demand is increasingly international: Italy remains a strong reference market, complemented by growing interest from leading European countries including Germany and the United Kingdom. Interest is also expanding beyond Europe, with buyers from the United States and the Middle East beginning to view Paje as a strategic entry point into Zanzibar’s real estate market.

With competitive entry prices, a limited supply of quality residential projects and strong tourism fundamentals, Castle Residence positions itself as a solid opportunity for lifestyle buyers and investors looking for exposure to one of East Africa’s most promising coastal markets.

Living in Paje & Jambiani, Zanzibar

Paje and Jambiani are among Zanzibar’s most sought-after east-coast beach areas, renowned for powder-white sand, turquoise lagoon waters, a vibrant kitesurf culture and an easy, walkable lifestyle that consistently attracts international visitors and long-stay buyers.

Located along Zanzibar’s East Coast, Paje and Jambiani offer a rare balance between natural beauty and everyday livability. The area combines expansive beaches and calm lagoons with a steadily growing ecosystem of cafés, beach clubs, water-sports centers, wellness spaces and essential local services, making it practical not only for holidays but also for extended stays and second-home living.

What truly distinguishes this coastal corridor is its ability to align lifestyle appeal with solid investment fundamentals. Demand is driven by a broad international audience, including European buyers (Italy, the UK, Germany and other key markets) as well as increasing interest from the Middle East and Gulf region, where buyers often seek beachfront or near-beach residences suitable for both personal use and short-term rental income.

From a real-estate perspective, location remains the primary value driver. Being positioned between Paje and Jambiani enhances access to restaurants, experiences and daily services, while keeping the beach lifestyle central. In this context, properties located close to the shoreline and designed with a focus on comfort, privacy and low-maintenance ownership tend to be easier to rent, more attractive to international guests, and more resilient over time.
