Marhaba Lounge
★2.7(36 reviews)ZNZ · Terminal 3 · airside
Zanzibar's most fully featured lounge — hot food, a bar and both lounge networks.
Marhaba Lounge sits airside in Zanzibar's Terminal 3, the airport's newer passenger building, and it's the only lounge we track on this side of ZNZ. It's the most fully featured option at the airport: it accepts both DragonPass and Priority Pass, so it's the safest single target if you're unsure which membership your card carries, and it's the only Zanzibar lounge we list with a hot-food buffet and a bar serving alcohol. The space is air-conditioned with Wi-Fi, power at seats and flight information, making it as comfortable for a longer wait as a quick stop before boarding. If you're departing from Terminal 3, this is the natural pick; the Marhaba brand is a familiar one across African and Middle Eastern airports.
Crowding · busy at peak
A workable pre-flight spot with Wi-Fi, power at seats and air-conditioned seating you can use for a laptop. Fine for email and light work, though it's a leisure-oriented lounge rather than a dedicated business space.

The fullest food and drink offering at Zanzibar — a hot-food buffet rather than just cold snacks, alongside a bar serving alcohol, soft drinks and juices. Enough for a proper pre-flight meal rather than just a holding bite.
