Arabian Nights – Amani Tours View
This is a fantastic little guest house in an idyllic location after a Tanzania safari on the mainland. In keeping with Zanzibar tradition, the ownerhas built a lodge that looks traditionally Zanzibari, but has additional creature comforts of a larger lodge. This means you get the quiet intimacy, but also have the luxuries and creature comforts. Do not expect a 5-Star European lodge, but rather a very comfortable, clean and well run guesthouse, situated right on top of one of the most magnificent beaches in Zanzibar.
The sea front rooms are most recommended, but if you are on a budget, the standard rooms have exactly the same interiors, only no sea view.
