About Stone Town, Michamvi, Paje
Zanzibar is an idyllic archipelago known for its pristine beaches, turquoise waters, and cultural richness. Visitors can enjoy historic Stone Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, explore fragrant spice plantations, snorkel around coral reefs at Mnemba Atoll, and indulge in Swahili cuisine at beachfront restaurants. Luxury resorts like Zuri and The Residence combine eco-conscious design with world-class amenities, offering unforgettable experiences from dhow cruises to underwater dining.
My Experience
The moment we arrived at Zuri Zanzibar, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and breathtaking sunset views from the private beach. Exploring the vibrant streets of Stone Town was like stepping back in time, and the spice plantation lunch was a burst of flavour and fragrance. Snorkelling at Mnemba Atoll felt like swimming through a giant aquarium. Dining at The Rock was a magical, once-in-a-lifetime evening. Every detail was infused with local charm and world-class luxury.
