A luxury guesthouse, Arabian Nights combines colourful Zanzibari influences with western touches, Italian tiles mix with mosquito net draped four poster beds, floor cushion seating blend with western food and African time (the laid back sort). Small, intimate and comfortable, Arabian Nights is a great choice for young couples looking for a more alternative accommodation than some of the main stream hotels lining this same stretch of beach. Paje beach is reputed to be one of, if not the best beach on the East Coast and if you take one of the sea facing suites you will have a commanding view. In total their are only 8 rooms and four of these are sea facing suites.
A small cosy restaurant serves a variety of well prepared meals mixing western and Zanzibari flavour. Although it may not live up to the five star expectations of some guests used to European class, Arabian Nights offers accommodation of a high standard and more than makes up for any perceived shortfalls in charm, character and comfort!
Ali Baba and his forty would have felt right at home at Arabian Nights Guesthouse. An eclectic mix of the finest luxuries of Zanzibari and western cultures, the most beautiful furnishings from both and exemplary service at home in any culture!

Arabian Nightlife
One of the best things about this guesthouse is the fact that it is within walking distance from many restaurants and places to have an evening drink. The social life is something often shied away form when on holiday, but if you are looking to have a good time, then Arabian Nights is definitely a winner! And of course with it's own dive centre, there is plenty to do in the day also!
"When the wind's from the east
And the sun's from the west
And the sand in the glass is right
Come on down
Stop on by
Hop a carpet and fly
To another Arabian night"
