Featuring an outdoor swimming pool, garden and views of garden, BARIDI VILLA is located in Zanzibar City, 70 metres from Kiwengwa Beach.

Baridi Villa is a great place. It is definitely worth the money. Staff are really happy and helpful. You can organise different trips through Baridi. The price for the trips and taxis are slightly more expensive what you can get from the beach but at least you don’t need to stress so much if it works out or not. The pool is perfect for kids. The rooms have smartTV with Netflix (you need your own account though).

Set just 100 metres from Stone Town Beach, Freddie Mercury Apartments offers accommodation in Zanzibar City with access to a private beach area, a rooftop pool, as well as a 24-hour front desk.

Staying in Freddie Mercury’s childhood home was special. It is a really beautiful apartment and on top of that you get use of the facilities at the hotel. I only had one night but it will definitely stay in the memory bank!!!

Set within 13 km of Peace Memorial Museum and 12 km of Cinema Afrique in Zanzibar City, Jabar Lodge features accommodation with seating area.

The location of Jabar is fabulous. Tucked away off the beaten path with amazing ocean views. Only 4 rental huts on the property so no chance of being overbooked with too many guests. The place was very relaxing. The bed was super comfy. Great wifi. The breakfast was plentiful and superb. We had a plate of fresh fruits each morning with an omelette. We also ordered dinner a couple of nights which was also great. The service we received from Jamal (owner) and his staff, Malek and Fahmy was exceptional. My wife fell ill and Jamal arranged for a doctor to come out to visit on location to provide treatment and medications. They go the extra mile to ensure that you comfortable and have everything you need. Do not hesitate to stay here...you won't regret it! Thank you Jamal, Malek and Fahmy.

Excellent location. Massive space and huge covered verandah with the best sea views. Disregard any negative comments about this place. It’s simply the best value in Stonetown. Highly recommended.

Balcony House is offering accommodation in Stone Town in Zanzibar City. Staff on site can arrange airport transfers. Balcony House has 11 bedrooms.

Balcony House is a great place to stay in Stone Town. It's close to all the attractions and the beach. The lobby, place where you can hang out and where the wi-fi is the strongest, is really nice and big. And for only 5$, they serve amazing breakfast! We had a really nice stay.

Offering city views, Zava House Stone town is an accommodation set in Zanzibar City, 400 metres from Stone Town Beach and 700 metres from Peace Memorial Museum.

I stayed at Zava House over two periods and can really recommend it to anyone. Nice place and really welcoming and helpful staff! The hostel is placed close to everything in Stonetown but still in a quiet area. If I’m coming back to Zanzibar I’ll definitely stay here again.
