About your stay

On a coral cliff overlooking a long stretch of white sand and the Indian Ocean, Zanzibar's stylish five-star newcomer, Essque Zalu, opened in June 2011. It's a masterpiece of cool design that's in step with the fashion, art and entrepreneurial cognoscenti who arrive from safari adventures in the Serengeti. Those with a penchant for doing little can settle into lounge chairs beside the enormous infinity pool, relax in the spa, choose between the three on-site restaurants or quaff vodka cranberries in the art gallery.
