CHAVDA HOTEL IN STONE TOWN ZANZIBAR
Navigation Tip - Go Directly To Prices, Reviews, Map, Photos, Video & Room Rate Guide For Chavda Hotel
Zanzibar and its surrounding island expanses, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has much to offer you on your coastal vacation with AfricanMecca, from the Swahili culture, historical Omani and Colonial attractions, spice plantations to turquoise Indian Ocean waters and more. Wander along the labyrinth streets and you will be rewarded with a peek into a flamboyant past. The hub of the island is the old settlement area called Stone Town that includes vibrant bazaars just like it was centuries ago where you can find a distinct variety of fruits, seafood, trinkets, textiles, curios, jewelry so much more. One of the non-frill stayovers to begin your quest of exploration while touring Zanzibar is the Chavda Hotel, located close to the old Post Office in the Shangani area (read more on where to stay in Zanzibar). An agreeable remnant of Zanzibar's past, it was originally owned by a merchant and its present owners have modestly maintained its 40 rooms with their Zanzibari carved furniture much as they were first built. Choose from rooms in different specifications like single or double rooms. You could also request for rooms with twin beds and a distinct sitting area or ones that also include a balcony to enjoy the marvelous view over Stone Town. Families and groups of four guests traveling in the heart of Zanzibar will find the Family Executive Suite self-effacingly comfortable with its two king sized beds. Each of the rooms includes an en-suite bathroom, television with satellite connection, minibar, air conditioning and other standard amenities. Chavda Hotel has a decent rooftop restaurant-cum-bar where you can enjoy adequate multi-cuisine fare accompanied by soft sea breezes and stunning views of the island.
Aside from the enchanting bazaars of Stone Town, you can check out the remnants of Zanzibar's rich cultural past on an AfricanMecca guided tour. Visit the Anglican Church that was built in place of the infamous slave market, the House of Wonders also called the Beit-al-Ajaib, the Sultan's Palace (Beit-al-Sahel) and also the regal Old Fort. Each of these structures will talk to you of a distinct era of the island's rich heritage. On your East Africa trip to this part of Tanzania, you must visit the famous spice plantations of Zanzibar that were key to making the island a much-coveted prize to be preserved. Not only will you be able to see the spices in their raw form growing on the trees and plants but you can also taste them and may take part in harvesting them. Also, sample the incredible varieties of fruit that are home to the island – shoki-shoki, bungo, fenesi and durian. Also, discover the succulent tastes of mangos and paw-paw, guava and many more. Learn about the colors the spices can impart to special fabrics and pick up charming collectibles fashioned out of palm leaves at the end of the excursion. The island of Zanzibar has yet another treat in store for you on your nature holiday – the Jozani Forest. Here your expert guide will introduce you to the endemic red colobus monkey, a beautiful primate found primarily on the island. Conservation efforts have recalled them back from the edge of extinction and they now number over 2000. The forest is a protected reserve and hosts many other varieties of small creatures from assorted avian butterflies, hopping frogs to terrestrial lizards, millipedes and a fabulous variety of flora including the mangrove forests of Chwaka.

The Zanzibar Stone Town tour guide was superlative. He was outstanding and gave us undivided attention. We felt that was great value and to be escorted round the market place and slave stations was like walking in a living museum.
