Zanzibar Serena Inn

Zanzibar Serena Inn

Zanzibar


Zanzibar Serena Inn Location Map

Idyllically situated on the seafront of ancient Stone Town, and flanked by an exotic mix of Sultan's palaces, Portuguese forts, ancient dhow harbours, and bright bazaars, the Zanzibar Serena Inn is a haven of tranquillity amongst the bustle of one of Africa's most ancient and enchanting towns.

The inn has been styled to represent the epitome of Swahili style, ethnic elegance and Arabic opulence.

Constructed so that the waves lap to within inches of its open windows and the lateen-sailed dhows pass within metres of its tables, the Baharia Restaurant features fretwork screens, Omani carvings, Persian rugs and bright Swahili artifacts. The Zanzibar cuisine meanwhile, blends freshly caught seafood, fresh spices, luscious fruit and delicately flavoured vegetables.

On the roof of the inn is the exclusive open-air Terrace Restaurant, which looks out over the bay and features a supreme selection of freshly-caught sea food. Or choose the Masahani Bar, which is presented in traditional Swahili style and offers performances by traditional Taarab orchestras. During the day, indoor and outdoor seating overlooks the pool terrace where a wide range of drinks and snacks are served.

After the heat and dust of Stone Town, the rooms in the Zanzibar Serena Inn are havens of cool and shade.

With high ceilings and shuttered windows, the rooms are constructed in the traditional Swahili manner, whereby the size is dictated by the length of the mangrove poles that make up their ceilings.

Adorned with arched niches, antique plates and brass lamps, and featuring traditionally carved furniture with basket weave and ceramic inlay, the rooms are predominantly royal blue and white.

Four-poster, net draped beds dominate, offset by delicate side tables, vanity units and louver doors opening onto balconies, some of which feature massive free-standing hammocks.
