Park Hyatt Zanzibar — Stone Town

Where Swahili heritage meets contemporary luxury, Park Hyatt Zanzibar occupies the historic Mambo Msiige building and a sympathetically designed neighbour on the Stone Town seafront. Sixty-seven rooms and suites are styled in muted creams, dark woods and Zanzibari textiles, with private terraces overlooking the ocean or the inner courtyard.

An ideal coastal coda after the Serengeti — pair sunrise on the dhow harbour with afternoons at the infinity pool and dinners at the celebrated Dining Room.
