Tucked away in the busy alleyways of Stone Town, Kisiwa House is just a few steps from spice stalls and lively markets. The 170-year-old boutique hotel has 5 rooms and 4 suites, among them the roomy Sulaima Senior Suites (for 2 adults + 2 children) and the regal Malkia Junior Suites (2 adults + 1 child), each with an en-suite bathroom, air conditioning and Swahili-inspired decor. Eat at Darini Restaurant, where fresh seafood and Zanzibari spices are the stars, or relax in the courtyard lounge with a spiced tea or a tropical drink. Psst…be sure to catch the views of the Indian Ocean from the rooftop!
