Set on the powdery white sands of the island's beautiful north coast, the Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort offers a paradise setting for your luxurious holiday escape.
The hotel's spacious rooms and suites overlook tropical gardens and swimming pools with the Indian Ocean beyond, and feature opulent fittings and stylish African-inspired interiors. Relax in the beautiful infinity edge swimming pool and admire the views with a drink from the swim up Upepo pool bar. Alternatively, enjoy a cool drink at the Baraza Beach Bar as the sun sets, golden, over the sea.
If you enjoy a more active holiday, you'll find beach volleyball, beach tennis, kayaking, paddleboats and more. After the exertion, it's time for a pampering treatment at the spa for a sense of total rejuvenation; you'll also have two restaurants to choose between, offering everything from Italian to seafood dishes.
Living up to its name, the Royal Zanzibar Beach Resort is a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellent winner and the ideal spot for those that want breath-taking surroundings and elegant accommodation.
