Zanzibar
Baraza has 30 luxury villas, ranging from 150 to 250 m², located on the beach or within the gardens. They have one or two bedrooms, and all feature a pool with a large private terrace.
Baraza offers efficient, attentive service (a rather rare quality in Zanzibar) and a very good table.
On the dining side: 3 restaurants are available to guests.
Breakfast is served every day from 7:30am to 10:00am at the open-air Livingstone Terrace.
Under the bright sun, you'll appreciate the fresh menu of the Ocean Lounge by the pool.
The Chai lounge welcomes guests for afternoon tea.
As night falls, lulled by the breeze, you'll stroll along paved pathways, between palm trees and bougainvillea, towards an illuminated, fragrant palace: The Sultans serves refined dishes with exotic flavours, and the Livingstone Terrace hosts guests for themed dinners on certain evenings of the week. Further on, the Dhahabu Bar & Lounge, in a more relaxed style, is the ideal spot for a cocktail before or after dinner.
Every evening, entertainment delights guests (always with great elegance and discretion).
A dress code applies (long trousers for gentlemen and elegant attire for ladies).
The Baraza Kids Club is fully equipped with a variety of games and activities perfect for children.
During July and August and over the Christmas period, it is supervised by an activity leader who organises activities at set times (2-3 hours in the morning and 2-3 hours in the afternoon), though parents are asked to remain on the resort. Only toilet-trained children aged 4 to 12 can be left with the activity leader.
Children under 4 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
Outside of these periods, the space remains open but children must be accompanied by an adult.
The children's club pool is shallow and may only be used under parental supervision.
Children's menus are available at the resort's restaurants.
In terms of accommodation, Baraza’s 30 villas are arranged as follows:
- 14 one-bedroom Bahari villas (148 m2) stand in 2 rows near the beach: 7 Ocean Front villas in the 1st row, and 7 Ocean villas in the 2nd row. Only the Ocean Front villas have a beach view. Capacity: 2 people maximum.
- 15 two-bedroom Sultan villas (193 m2) are set further back, across 3 rows (5 Sultan villas in the 3rd row and 10 Garden View villas in the 4th and 5th rows). For these villas, the second bedroom is smaller and mainly intended for children or young adults. The second bedroom’s bathroom has no bathtub.
Capacity: 4 adults, or 2 adults and 2 children under 18 plus 1 child under 12.
- 1 two-bedroom Royal villa, right on the ocean front, offering 254 m2 of luxury.
All villas come with remarkable comfort: a large terrace with a private plunge pool (unheated), lounge, work corner, day bed, air conditioning, safe, minibar (soft drinks included, alcoholic drinks at an extra charge), dressing area, and an expansive bathroom with bathtub, shower, double basin and separate toilet.
The Frangipani Spa is superb.
Give yourself over to the expert hands of the therapists and let body and mind rest in lotus position.
