Meliá Zanzibar sits directly on a white-sand beach at Kiwengwa on the island's northeastern coast, a large resort of 124 rooms alongside one-, two-, and three-bedroom villas, some with their own private pools. Its modern, contemporary design departs from the typical thatched safari-lodge look, with sleek lobby lounges, several pools, and an Anantara Spa offering treatments and its own lap pool.
Zanzibar's east coast is known for calm, turquoise Indian Ocean waters, wide tidal beaches, and fringing coral reefs that make for good snorkelling and diving depending on the tide. The island's interior also holds Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park, home to the rare Zanzibar red colobus monkey, and Stone Town's UNESCO-listed old quarter, both within reach for a day excursion.
PMK regularly pairs a mainland Tanzania safari with several relaxing nights at Meliá Zanzibar, whether on an all-inclusive or bed-and-breakfast basis. Your PMK guide can also arrange a Stone Town tour or spice farm visit to round out your island stay.
