Amani Boutique Hotel is a pinch-yourself bolthole made for beach lovers. Set on one of the best coastlines in Zanzibar- the hotel puts the soft white sand and warm water of the Indian Ocean firmly in the spotlight. Indoors- its handful of bedrooms are tastefully designed to showcase local craftsmanship- and all have private balconies for taking in views of that sea and those gardens. An atmosphere of relaxation reigns as you move between bedroom- pool and beachside loungers - sipping your tropical fruit cocktail as you go. Meals are served with the waves as your backdrop- as the unique and delicious flavours of Zanzibari cuisine are given a gastronomic twist by the Amani team. Beyond the hotel- the ocean beckons adventurers with kitesurfing- scuba diving and snorkelling all on offer. Take in the white sands of the islands from the special vantage point of a traditional Dhow- or visit the village where dolphins are famed for frolicking. And if culture is calling- the Zanzibar capital Stone Town has it in spades - along with buckets of colourful- crumbling buildings and carved wooden doorways for some of the best holiday snaps you will ever take. Amani Boutique Hotel is a Small Luxury Hotels of the World property.
