Your own luxury home in Africa
In the heart of Zanzibar’s Stone Town, you’ll discover a charming maze of bazaars, bicycles, bas-reliefs, and benches. Stone benches, or bazara, line the narrow streets, perfect for people-watching. This UNESCO World Heritage site offers a captivating experience of the idyllic East African island, rich in culture, coffee, spices, and luxurious accommodations like the Park Hyatt, majestically perched on Shangani Beach.
From the hotel, you can easily explore the town’s attractions on foot: the lush Forodhani Gardens with its vibrant street food scene, the Old Fort which has served various purposes since 1699, the Old Dispensary, the Peace Memorial, and the Palace Museums. The bustling spice markets are filled with fragrant, colorful wares, including some of the finest coffee in the world. You might also find beautiful Tanzanian jewelry and visit the birthplace of Farrokh Bulsara, also known as Freddie Mercury of Queen.
No visit is complete without admiring the famous Zanzibari doors, ornately carved wooden masterpieces from the 19th century that are a true sensory delight in Stone Town.

Our Stone Town residence features modern contemporary amenities blended with luxurious touches: Arabesque and Indian accents, brass-studded chests, carvings, and spacious bathrooms with standalone tubs and rain showers. We love returning to the opulence of a traditional colonial mansion, originally built by a wealthy Omani trader. The Zamani Residence, which forms the core of the hotel, is a magnificent Zanzibari mansion rich in history, grace, and mystique – truly one of the island’s architectural gems. From the Library to the cozy sofas in the Living Room, the elegant ambiance is both relaxed and residential.
Splendid views stretch over the bustling dhow harbors and out across the mesmerizing azure of the Indian Ocean. Whether enjoying sundowners on the terrace or watching the sunrise from your luxuriously appointed guestroom – complete with all modern conveniences, from an iPhone dock to an Illy coffee machine – time spent in Zanzibar is truly time well spent.
Facing the ocean and overlooking the beach, our refreshing infinity pool and tranquil spa with expert masseuses provide the perfect places to relax and rejuvenate. These retreats are ideal for before, after, or in between your explorations of the fascinating Zanzibari capital.
Stone Town is rich with museums, including the essential Slave Museum, which provides insight into the immense and harrowing history of the slave trade that once thrived here. It’s estimated that 50,000 people passed through the port annually until the British shut it down in 1873. The spice trade, another significant aspect of the town’s history, comes vividly to life at Darajani Market. Bazaars, boutiques, and shops offer a wide array of treasures, from soft straw bags to glittering Tanzanian gemstones.
This intriguing town, with its Swahili, Indian, and Arabic influences, was built by Persians, Indians, Omanis, Portuguese, and British. It invites you to wander, explore, and become as enchanted by its charm as we are.
