Baraza Resort & Spa in Zanzibar: solitary immersion in the cradle of humanity

• 18 Sep, 2009 • Catégorie: One hotel a day, Out of the city, Romantic, Tanzania, Waterfront

If there is indeed a paradise on earth, it is certainly the untouched and legendary landscapes of Zanzibar! According to the presence of the hotel Baraza, East itself drags on the heart of this Eden. Prisoner of coral reefs, dominated by the turquoise lagoon of Bwejuu, this little honey-colored palace revives lazily the era of the spice trade. An universe worthy of a thousand and one nights for the 21st century nomads.

The sumptuous and magical decor infuses every corner of the charm and beauty of the East through an alchemy of opulent and warm materials. We come across some Arab, Indian and Persian influences, through a decorative heritage saturated with cloth and precious silks. The hammered brass lamps complete some antique and hand carved furniture. Triumphant over the lush gardens dotted with stone walkways, thirty luxury villas offer a smooth immersion into a typical Swahali world where arches carved in stone and ivory arabesques face each other.

We just have to sink a little in the bougainvillea garden to discover a hidden gem of the hotel: the Frangipani Spa. There we are lounging in the pool at the rythm of underwater melodies, lulled by the scented candles. And for those who improvised themselves great explorers, the care “Safari After Treatment” will relieve all your small pains after long days on the winding roads of Africa. Zanzibar is also the « island of the thousand spices ». The Baraza Restaurant will let you discover the aspects through a range of exotic dishes to enjoy on funky sounds.
