Overview
Tucked along the vibrant seafront of Stone Town, Zanzibar’s UNESCO World Heritage heart, Mizingani Seafront Hotel commands breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean, with dhows gliding across the horizon at sunset. Its prime location places you steps from iconic landmarks like the House of Wonders, Forodhani Gardens, and the bustling night market, where the air hums with the scent of grilled seafood and spices. Just beyond, the turquoise waters of Zanzibar’s coast beckon, with opportunities for snorkeling, diving, or sailing to nearby coral reefs teeming with marine life.
The hotel’s style is a love letter to Zanzibar’s past, with hand-carved four-poster beds, antique clocks, and mosaic-tiled hamam bathrooms evoking the opulence of a sultan’s court.
