Baraza offers a lavish escape with immaculate villas and exceptional service. The stunning beach and private pools provide ample relaxation, making it a true paradise. Dining options are varied and delicious, and the attention to detail in every aspect of the stay is impressive. However, during peak seasons, the number of guests can make the beach feel slightly busy, which might detract from the serene experience intended.

Baraza is a splendid retreat that perfectly balances luxury and community engagement. The villas are spacious and beautifully designed, providing unmatched comfort. The dining was exceptional, although there were minor imperfections in service that kept it from being flawless.

Baraza is an oasis of relaxation on the east coast of Zanzibar, offering beautiful and spacious villas just a stone's throw from the beach. The dining options are outstanding, and the service feels incredibly personal. While the beachfront is simply stunning and rarely crowded, it's best enjoyed for relaxation rather than exploring, as the area is quite quiet.

My stay at Baraza was a blend of luxury and unique experiences. The architecture is stunning, and I loved the personal touches, like having my room filled with frangipani flowers. However, I did encounter some service issues upon arrival that were quite frustrating. While the facilities were beautiful, I think there's room for improvement in the overall service experience.
