The Hotel
Its beachfront location boasts white powdery sands framed by swaying palm trees. An all-villa resort that promises exclusivity and privacy, Baraza is a destination for travellers seeking all-encompassing luxury, where every little detail is taken care of. There are just 30 villas, comprising of one and two-bedroom options, harmonising Swahili, Arabic and Indian architectural styles – think dramatic arches, hand carved furniture, ornate details and enchanting brass lanterns dotted throughout. Contemporary yet luxury, you'll feel transported to paradise, yet right at home with the comfort of modern luxuries.
Amenities & Experiences
Spend your days lounging by the swimming pool, diving, paddling and kayaking the turquoise ocean, working up a sweat on the tennis courts or in the fitness centre, relaxing with a good book in the library, and unwinding at a guided yoga session. Immerse yourself into the local culture at a Swahili cooking lesson, language lesson, village tour and spice farm visit. Beyond the resort, trips to Jozani Forest – home of the red colobus monkeys – Stone Town UNESCO heritage tours, dolphin excursions, and cruises on traditional dhow boats can also be enjoyed.
Dining & Drinking
The hotel operates on an all-inclusive basis, with multiple venues offering a wide variety of cuisine. There's Arabic, Swahili, Indian, Persian and Asian flavours to enjoy. Be it breakfast on Livingstone Terrace, a beachside lunch at Dhahabu Bar & Lounge, or an intimate meal in Sultan's Dining Room, each day promises a new gastronomic journey.
