Our Opinion: Located on one of Zanzibar’s finest beaches on the island’s east coast, this beautiful, fully inclusive boutique resort evokes the heritage of Zanzibar dating back to the era of the Sultans. A fusion of Arabic, Swahili and Indian design, the hotel’s architecture is composed of Swahili arches and intricate hand-carved cement decor, and furnished with attractive antiques, hand-made wooden furniture and decorative brass lanterns. Baraza offers a high level of luxury and sophistication in a stunning location.
