Baraza Zanzibar Resort & Spa

Boutique Beach Hotel

Trip Advisor Rating '.$item_trip.' Our Rating 9.8
 

Baraza Resort and Spa, a distinguished all-inclusive retreat in Bwejuu on Zanzibar's enchanting southeast coast, blends Arabic, Swahili, and Indian influences into a five-star haven, celebrated as a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World.

Each of the 30 expansive villas exudes timeless charm with hand-carved white stone arches, Zanzibari antiques, and bespoke wooden furnishings adorned with intricate brass lanterns. Private plunge pools and shaded terraces with cushioned loungers invite relaxation, while spacious living areas feature traditional Sultan's lounge beds and walk-in dressing rooms. The Frangipani Spa, enveloped by tropical gardens, offers soothing treatments inspired by ancient Swahili rituals, complemented by a serene yoga pavilion and a well-equipped fitness centre. A pristine tennis court and a PADI Dive centre cater to active guests, while the powdery white-sand beach beckons for leisurely strolls.

Culinary delights unfold across four distinct restaurants, weaving Arabic, Indian, and Asian flavours. The Livingstone Terrace, an open-air haven, serves breakfast with ocean breezes, while Sultans Restaurant presents spice-infused dishes like Zanzibari seafood curry and cardamom-scented lamb. Ocean Lounge offers light coastal fare, and The Palm Restaurant elevates fine dining with Swahili-inspired creations under starlit skies. Two bars, including the vibrant Dhahabu Bar and Lounge, craft cocktails with local spices and tropical fruits, perfect for sipping by the water's edge. Guests can explore the coral reefs with guided snorkeling or dive excursions, or unwind with beachfront yoga sessions.

Located 59 km from Zanzibar International Airport, Baraza Resort and Spa sits along the tranquil Bwejuu beach, a short drive from the vibrant Stone Town and its historic spice markets.
