Baraza Resort & Spa Zanzibar

Absolutely stunning resort with an incredibly luxurious feel. The villas were absolutely fabulous and the food and staff were faultless. The pool area is lovely and the watersports office had lots on offer. The food was outstanding with great kids options and excellent cocktails and wine. Poolside service was excellent. We used the tennis court and gym which were both great, the spa looked excellent but we didn't use it ourselves. Highly recommended.

What a visit. The level of service, quality of food, attention to detail, personal attention was phenomenal. Yassin the manager, and there was another female manager (I forget the name), the lady who oversaw meals and chef Bharat. Just wow. Chef prepared some meals for us to accommodate us. My wife was not well one of the days and they really took care of us. The spa is excellent. Nara was superb. Muhammad who took us snorkeling was so great with my kiddo. On my last day I had to checkout but had a very late flight. But we stayed back chilling in the hotel most of the day. They made us feel special and I would come back for sure and recommend others. Thank you for such a wonderful stay.

The resort was absolutely stunning with beautiful rooms and impeccably well maintained- It was truly as beautiful as the photos appear on the web. From the moment we arrived the staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable and thoroughly enjoyable. All members of the team were on the same page in taking care of the guests. The food variety was fantastic and there was a different theme everyday -the executive chef Bharat would ask us at mealtimes if we would like anything special and on several occasions happily made our personal requests which were amazing-he was truly outstanding. Other members of the team like Esther were always there to make sure we had everything we needed. The guest relations team including Yassin and Noa arranged a special candlelight dinner for our anniversary - The rooms have the most beautiful Swahili and Omani theme. There were excellent daily events like Swahili cooking class and cocktail making on the beach . All in all this will be one of our most memorable vacations.

We would like to sincerely thank the entire team at Baraza Resort and Spa for an absolutely wonderful stay. From the very first moment, we were met with an exceptionally warm welcome, genuine openness, and a true sense of care. The staff consistently showed an outstanding ability to adapt to guests’ individual needs, making us feel truly seen and valued throughout our stay. The villas are breathtaking — spacious, luxurious, and incredibly comfortable, each with its own private pool, creating a perfect setting for relaxation and privacy. Every member of the team, from the gardeners and housekeeping staff to the waiters, bartenders, and management, was wonderfully kind, attentive, and always ready to help, while maintaining the highest level of professionalism and competence. A special mention must go to the chef, whose dishes were consistently prepared to an exceptional, top-class standard. Every meal was a true culinary experience. We would also like to warmly greet and thank the watersports team, whose guidance and company during reef walks made for unforgettable adventures. The atmosphere of peace, luxury, and homely comfort made our stay truly restorative and of the highest standard. Baraza Resort and Spa is a truly outstanding place, and we would be delighted to return again in the future. Warm regards to the entire outstanding Baraza Team! Malik family :)
