Seacliff Zanzibar is a luxury hotel built on the dramatic natural cliff at Malindi, on the northern edge of Stone Town’s seafront. The clifftop position gives the hotel some of the most striking views in Stone Town panoramic Indian Ocean vistas stretching from the historic harbour to the open sea, framed by the ancient coral stone rooftops and minarets of the UNESCO World Heritage Site below. The hotel’s design incorporates local Swahili-Arabic architectural elements into a contemporary luxury context, with elegant rooms and suites that maximise the ocean views from private terraces and balconies.
A cliffside swimming pool, restaurant, and bar are the centrepiece amenities, all positioned to capitalise on the extraordinary views. The hotel is ideally located for Stone Town sightseers: the historic city’s main attractions the Old Fort, the House of Wonders, the slave memorial, the Forodhani market, and the spice museum are within easy walking or short taxi distance. Zanzibar’s main ferry terminal is also nearby, convenient for guests arriving from or departing to Dar es Salaam by sea.
