PHASE 1
DEVELOPMENT
 AN EXCLUSIVE
TROPICAL
HIDEAWAY
Located in Matemwe on the north-eastern coast of
Zanzibar in Tanzania, Blue Amber is Africa’s leading
leisure destination and Zanzibar’s premier island resort.

Across 410 hectares (1013 acres) of tropical landscape

and along 4 kilometers of prime Indian Ocean coastline,
Blue Amber is the largest resort development of its kind
in Africa and is recognised as a strategic investment
project in Tanzania.

Scheduled to open in phases from 2021, the resort will

feature leading global hotel brands, luxury residential
homes and world-class amenities.
 FIND YOUR
SANCTUARY IN THE
UNTOUCHED
BEAUTY
OF ZANZIBAR
Zanzibar Island (Unguja) is located a few degrees
south of the equator and 39 km east of the quiet Republic
of Tanzania – a short, direct flight with a carrier or charter,
or via connecting flight from a major travel hub.

The island is a veritable all-year paradise – from its April

monsoon season to its June-October golden window,
before warming up again towards year-end.

Historically a fishing and agricultural hub, Zanzibar’s true

gift is its cashmere soft sand and bright cobalt waters.

Why Zanzibar?

Political & financial stability

Year-round island destination

Undersaturated luxury hotel supply

Significant tourism sector growth

A PARADISE
OF MANY
RETURNS
Blue Amber offers a stable of investment
opportunities to a select few. The first-phase
development consists of 54 pool villas, a leisure
centre, boutique hotel and beach restaurant, with
breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean.

Buyers can also take advantage of Blue Amber’s

optional, fully integrated property management
service to oversee and manage investors’ properties
when they are away, or let them to suitable tenants
as part of its rental pool programme with
attractive returns.
