Highland by Casa LiuRa, our home on Zanzibar

In picturesque Nungwi, in the north of Zanzibar, you will find a place where tropical greenery meets homely hospitality. Highland by Casa LiuRa means bungalows surrounded by a beautiful garden, a pool and a restaurant where it is worth lingering.

Our name tells a story. Highland refers to the former name of this place and its 17-year tradition. We keep it with respect while opening a new chapter: Casa LiuRa. “Casa” means home, and “LiuRa” joins our names, Liudmyła and Rafał. It is our personal signature as hosts and a sign of how we want to welcome our guests: warmly, attentively and openly.

The restaurant, the heart of our home

The heart of our home is the restaurant, which we run with a passion for good food and time spent together. The flavours of Zanzibar, seafood and aromatic spices meet dishes close to our European roots. At the table there is time to talk, meet people and quietly enjoy the moment.

Breakfast is included with every room. Relax in the garden, take a dip in the pool, enjoy your favourite cocktail and feel the easy rhythm of the island.
