The Residence Zanzibar is the only member of The Leading Hotels of the World in Tanzania and a stunning tribute not only to contemporary style, but also to the island’s African, Omani and European heritage. The resort is tucked away in 32 hectares of palm tree forests overlooking a white sand beach; its 66 villas are distinguished by private pools, personal butlers and a sense of understated luxury. In order to explore the extensive gardens, bicycles or a buggy with driver are provided to roam the property. Each villa is luxuriously appointed with contemporary, stylish furniture playing homage to the island’s heritage and featuring all the modern conveniences expected of a luxury hotel. On the deck outside, overlooking a private swimming pool wicker chairs and day beds await the guests to relax in and enjoy the views.
