Baraza - Update

Baraza has magically captured the very essence of the mystique and exoticism of Zanzibar. From the spectacular entrance, which features a series of Swahili arches which, in repetition, frame the spectacular natural beauty of this magical location, through to the restaurants and bars which showcase Cement Barazas replete with silk cushions and candlelit lanterns, through to the villas where every detail has been considered. Hand carvings adorn the cement walls, Antique Zanzibar doors frame spaces and buildings flow in all shades of cream and caramel accented with twinkling hand carved brass lanterns, ceramic pots, Zanzibari antiques and brushed mosaic stone floors.

Each private, luxury villa is an expression of Swahili design and features sumptuous King Beds, with its own separate living room, outdoor terrace which is framed by arches, luxury bathrooms, a private plunge pool and its own Sultans Lounge.

Combine this with spectacular gardens, Zanzibari hospitality, a world class spa featuring its own lap pool, a kitchen showcasing the seafood, spices and abundance of fruits and vegetables that the island has to offer and this is the ideal location to experience the heady and hypnotic magic of Zanzibar while enjoying the luxuries of premier world class hotel services and facilities.

Diving & Snorkeling Report from Zanzibar Watersports

December saw amazingly flat waters, brilliant snorkeling and superb diving. There was huge excitement when mantas were spotted at one of our deep dive sites in the Pemba channel – Leven Banks - and the fishermen have been spotting more and more hammerheads in that area whilst fishing!

A busy time of year for everyone, we have taken record numbers of people to Mnemba Marine Conservation Area for the best diving and snorkeling Zanzibar has to offer.

We've been keeping a tally and are pleased to announce that pods of dolphins are spotted on 9 out of 10 of our recent trips to Mnemba Atoll and there's often a chance to swim with them if they're in the mood!
