Dining at Alaia Beach Resort Zanzibar
“KAIO by Hello Capitano”
Dining at Alaia Beach Resort Zanzibar is curated and operated by KAIO by Hello Capitano – a restaurant and café concept known for its relaxed atmosphere, honest cooking, and food that fits naturally into island life.
Whether you’re starting the day gently, refuelling between activities, or sitting down for a long dinner, dining at Alaia is meant to feel simple, satisfying, and relaxed.
The Restaurant
KAIO by Hello Capitano is set across two floors, each offering a slightly different atmosphere while sharing the same kitchen, menu philosophy, and commitment to fresh preparation and quality ingredients.
The ground floor is open, social, and closely connected to the pool and beach – ideal for casual lunches, light meals between swims, and relaxed daytime dining.
The upper floor offers a calmer, more laid-back setting with extra space and a slower rhythm, making it perfect for breakfast mornings and evening dinners.
Both levels reflect the same spirit: open, welcoming, and designed to be enjoyed without formality.
