Pure Health Zanzibar
10-day Thyroid Wellness Retreat — where science meets soul, and healing begins
Why Your Thyroid Matters
That tiny, butterfly-shaped gland in your neck is mission control for your metabolism, mood, energy, temperature, heart rate — even your hair and skin.
When it’s off balance — whether underactive (hypothyroid) or overactive (hyperthyroid) — everything feels off.
Common Symptoms We Address
Fatigue • Brain Fog • Anxiety • Weight Fluctuations • Hair Loss • Dry Skin
Gut Issues • Irregular Periods • Sweating • Insomnia • Mood Swings
You're not imagining it — and you're not alone. Up to 1 in 20 people have thyroid issues, with women affected up to 8 times more than men.

Our Programme
Free Time: Time to have Fun, Explore or Simply Reflect
It’s not all inner work — there’s also time to explore beautiful Zanzibar. Think sunrise and sunset swims, freshwater caves, kayaking through mangroves at dusk, or simply a coffee on white sand, watching the turquoise ocean — and yes, it really is turquoise — ebb and flow.
Zen Boutique Hotel
Paradise Found
The Hotel
Tranquil bungalows in Jambiani, this is more than a retreat — it’s a reset button for your entire being.
12 private bungalows available (8 with double beds, 4 with twin beds).
The perfect mix of expert care, barefoot luxury, and tropical restoration.
Amenities at Zen Boutique
Zen offers a blend of comfort, nature, and inspiration with a cosy gym tucked away in the tropical garden and an open-air yoga shala that accommodates up to fifteen guests.
There is a tranquil spa area, a serene pool and a welcoming restaurant serving fresh, seasonal food and drink. A three-story tower houses a peaceful coffee lounge and a rooftop terrace with breathtaking sunset views over the wild bush. This beautiful space with its muted colours, is also used for workshops, movement classes, or quiet reflection.
Food at Zen Boutique
Food is an important part of any retreat and Zen believes it should be memorable. They offer a wide range of options from traditional Swahili cuisine, rich with fragrant spices and the vibrant flavors of the coast, to elegantly crafted international dishes – all cooked with love by their dedicated chefs.
