An archipelago off the coast of East Africa Zanzibar is primarily known for its main island, Unguja (called Zanzibar). Famed for its melting pot of cultures and rich trading history Zanzibar is more than just a beach holiday its a journey through history.
Zanzibar is home to a whole host of different properties, from boutique guests houses to rustic island retreats and larger resort style hotels. An all-inclusive offering in Zanzibar doesn't necessarily mean resorts with hundreds or rooms and no character however. The soul of Zanzibar can be found throughout all our all-inclusive properties with Swahili architecture and a warm friendly culture bringing these hotels to life. The all-inclusive hotels in Zanzibar offer a true feast for the senses with food usually sourced fresh and locally, famed for its seafood and of course the spices that make this island famous the food is as rich as the culture.
Zanzibar is a destination in itself however it is very easily combined with beautiful Tanzania. A safari in Tanzania is a bucket list adventure with the plains of the Serengeti and the lush Ngorongoro Crater being a huge draw. Track the mighty lion or elusive cheetah for an experience you wont forget. If your time is short a combination of the Selous Game Reserve and Zanzibar is a great choice, and, as safari lodges are primarily all-inclusive your break will cost you virtually nothing while you're there!
Exploring Zanzibar is a must with the historic city of Stone Town being the perfect place for a day trip. Hang with the locals at the cafes, shop till you drop at the craft markets or join a tour to learn more about the trade routes and the horrific slave trade that took place here. A dark past that lives on through monuments and memories.
After all your adventures in Zanzibar and beyond, kicking back on the beach, exploring the ocean or indulging in a spa treatment are the perfect way to relax. Your all-inclusive escape offers the perfect retreat.
Properties in Zanzibar vary from rustic luxury on remote beaches to large resorts with several restaurants and on-site activities. Small boutique hotels perfect for honeymooners offer an exclusive escape while families will find properties with villas and suites give them the extra space needed. While overwater accommodation isn't common there are some hotels that can offer this experience such at the Isaraya Overwater Villas. The unique blend of European, Arabic and African influence is shown in the beautiful architecture and indulgent interiors in hotels throughout the island.
Zanzibar is an island rich in history. Its role as a trading post for spices and even slaves at one time meant the island became a melting pot of different cultures. Today, the influences can still be seen in the architecture, food and people. Take a tour around Stone Town to soak up the Swahili culture, barter at Darajani Market and sample some of the delicious street food.
Zanzibar's laidback vibe and warm, open culture make the island a great place to kick back and relax. Most hotels offer on-site spa treatments including massage, scrubs and signature treatments.
Zanzibar has a tropical climate, so it’s always warm. But June to September is the best time to go, when you can enjoy sunny days with an average temperature of 29°C. This is also a fantastic time to go on safari in Tanzania – so why not add on a few days in the Serengeti, while you’re there? Alternatively, if you’re a keen diver, plan your Zanzibar holiday for January or February, when the water is at its clearest.
Zanzibar combines beautifully with mainland Tanzania for an exciting wildlife and beach combination. If you are short on time the Selous Game Reserve can be reached easily from Arusha or Kilimanjaro and as the biggest reserve in Tanzania you won't be disappointed by the huge variety of animals you can find there. The Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater are two of the biggest draws to Tanzania and its not difficult to see why.
