Sea Cliff Resort & Spa

Arriving at Sea Cliff Resort & Spa you know you have come across a very special place. The 4 km drive through a coconut plantation, is a reminder of the Zanzibar of old. Peace and tranquillity and no busy roads. Space, palm trees and the incredible blue of the ocean grace you as you approach the property courtyard filled with tropical flowers.

With our traditional makuti roofs and Arabic towers glowing with their brass lights, this is a hotel built with our location in mind. It is a unique combination of modern mixed with the original exotic architecture of historical Zanzibar.

The decorative natural colour scheme of creams and golds is complimented by antique furniture that has been specially sourced to showcase the culture, history and influences that give Zanzibar its uniqueness.

Sea Cliff Resort & Spa is situated on a cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean and offers panoramic views from the lounges, restaurant, bars and even the recreation area. You can enjoy breakfast overlooking the ocean or dinner under the stars and sundowners on the jetty or even from the balcony of your room.

96 of our rooms offer ocean views from the bedrooms and private balconies, so one can sit and watch the dhows sail past and, as we are on the west coast, magically experience magnificent sunsets.

The hotel offers a number of activities for the more energetic of guests, including a fully equipped gym, a water sports centre, 2 tennis courts, a squash court, as well as bicycles for adults and children.

Sea Cliff Resort & Spa also offers guests, both adults and children, a unique experience of ‘African Island’ horseback riding. Venture on a horse riding sensation of a lifetime. Delight in an adventure that allows you to experience the island’s scenery and culture at close quarters. Sunrise and sunset outings are a must and perfect photograph opportunities. Horse and rider become one with the environment – sharing the same sights, scents, sounds and excitement of the African wilderness. No horse lover coming to Zanzibar should miss this opportunity!

For those guests who want to relax and rejuvenate, we have a spa which consists of 5 treatment rooms, including a couple’s treatment room, splash pool, Jacuzzi bath, steam room & sauna.

From walking on the beach to windsurfing to strolling amongst the mangroves at low tide, the Sea Cliff Resort & Spa has something for everyone. With our close proximity to Stone Town, we are the ideal base from which to explore this incredible world heritage site. There are also numerous other excursions to enjoy during your time in Zanzibar from dolphin trips to the Jozani Forest, to tours of spice plantations.

Zanzibar is a unique destination filled with history and character, beautiful beaches, exquisite views, colours, variety and wonderful people. We look forward to welcoming you to this exotic island time and time again.
