Drifters
About
Drifters in Zanzibar sits at 791 Zanzibar, Paje, Tanzania, on the island's eastern coast where the village of Paje faces the Indian Ocean. The property trades as a hotel, and its position puts guests within reach of Jambiani and Bwejuu along the same stretch of shore. Stone Town, Nungwi, Kendwa, Kiwayu and Matemwe lie further afield for day trips across the island.
Guests have given the hotel a 3.9 out of 5 average across 241 reviews, a record that reflects steady occupancy and mixed feedback from past stays. Its website at http://www.drifterszanzibar.com/ carries the property's own listing for reference.
Zanzibar's coolest, driest months run from June to October, when the kusi wind blows from the southeast and the coast is at its most comfortable. Kiswahili is the main language of both islands, with English widely used in tourism and Arabic loanwords in everyday speech, so greetings in Kiswahili go a long way. The Zanzibar red colobus monkey is found only on Zanzibar, and the Pemba flying fox only on Pemba, giving wildlife-minded visitors something specific to look for.
