Zanzibar Hotels

 

The name Zanzibar invokes images of spice, colourful fabrics and exotic beaches with fringing coral reefs. Zanzibar hotels are as intriguing as the Spice Island, excellent and charismatic, both in the historic Stone Town - the only functioning ancient town in East Africa - as well as on the pristine beaches.

Stonetown has a fine spattering of great hotels - which themselves offer a haven from the energetic life in Zanzibar. We urge visitors to combine a short stay in Stone Town, to explore the history and architecture of the isles' cultural heart, with a stay at one of the beautiful Indian Ocean beaches.

The east coast of Zanzibar Island (Unguja) also features several establishments on the beach, ranging from small and intimate properties to larger resort outfits. Further afield, great lodges can be found on Pemba and Mafia, and smaller islands such as Chumbe and Mnemba.

No two Zanzibar hotels are alike, but all are alluring. Zanzibar, together with its hotels, is guaranteed to entice you.
