The decoration style is beautiful, but the food service is far from what it should be at this price

We spent 4 nights in this beautiful luxurious resort. From the moment you arrive you receive five star service from the courteous and attentive staff. The accommodation and the surroundings are spacious and immaculately presented. The breakfast and lunch buffet were outstanding as were the thoughtfully presented evening meals and entertainment. We would like to extend our special thanks to the following staff: Regina for her warm welcome, Cosmas, Godfrey (for his cocktails!) Ahmed for his fantastic curry demonstration, Fatima for arranging a birthday cake, David, Baharat, Jenipher, Leonce all of whom were so polite and keen to interact to make us feel at home. So gutted we can’t remember everyone’s name, but every member of staff was extremely friendly and welcoming. Asante kwa kukaa kwa kupendeza.

Exceptional in every way - Baraza Resort is luxurious, beautifully appointed with incredible staff. The bungalows are spacious, comfortable and steps away from the stunning beach. Beach is walkable for miles with fine white sand and swimmable when tide has come in. The grounds are incredible - truly feels as though you have stepped back in time to another era. The food is delicious and healthy. There are mosquitoes so be sure to wear repellant after sunset. This is an amazing location to unwind after a safari. A dream.

Baraza Resort & Spa is pure luxury from start to finish. The villas are stunning, spacious, and private — each with its own plunge pool. The service was flawless, the food delicious, and the beachfront location is picture-perfect. The spa is a must-visit, offering top-tier treatments in a peaceful setting. Whether you're relaxing or exploring, Baraza strikes the perfect balance. Highly recommended!

What an breathtaking place to stay! Visited together with family and stayed in one of the two bedroomed villas. The place is not only luxurious but also quiet and peaceful enough to still the mind and soul. It is not only the place that is amazing, what makes the place truely special is all the wonderful staff who go above and beyond to make the guests feel truely looked after. Angela at the reception made sure that our check in was seamless. We walked into the villa to find a chilled bottle of champagne waiting. The villa is luxurious, tastefuly decorated with ample space for the whole family to relax and enjoy , including a private pool. The restaurant serves delicious meals, the is plenty to select from for the afternoon tea and in between the meals and snacks the bar staff are ready to whip any drink you fancy. Salim and his staff are not only attentive, but also helpful, ensuring that meals are not only delicious but also memorable… you get to interact with the chef about food, trips etc. Special thanks to Salim and his staff, Bar manager and Leone for the best G&T i have drank in a while. Thank you to Mohamed at the Sports Center for organizing the snorkeling trip…we had fun! If you are planing a trip to Zanzibar, make sure to stay at the Baraza. It is worth experiencing. //Vicky and family

Everything was exceptional! The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough to look after us! The food was amazing with great variety. The beach was perfect with white sand and clear waters. The villa was the most luxurious place we have ever stayed - super comfortable. Highly recommend.

From the moment we arrived and were greeted by Angela, our villa host we have been spoilt. The villa is beautiful, clean and airy with a huge bath, day beds (inside and out!), a plunge pool and a minibar. The food has been exceptional. Every breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, bar snacks and dinner has been beautifully prepared and presented. Some nights a buffet, other nights a 5/6 course dinner with a theme. The bar staff are great, always keeping an eye out in case you need a drink or a snack. The pool, beach and sea are lovely. Borrow some reef shoes and go for a walk at low tide along the beach spotting crabs and beautiful shells. The gym is good and the 2 massages we had were top rate. The yoga and meditation sessions were inspiring. The water sports team were great fun. Moosa took us on the snorkelling trip, which we’d highly recommend and on an organised reef walk where we spotted star fish, sea cucumbers and beautiful coral. The only downside is that we have to go home.
