The stay

An art-filled Stone Town house with eleven named rooms across three apartments, a community kitchen and living spaces. Tarawanda includes a light Morning Harvest breakfast and connects its design to local stories. advertised pool, gym and spa facilities are nearby.

Tarawanda House is an art-filled Stone Town stay built around shared spaces and the stories of Zanzibar’s communities. At 525 Baghani Street, the Stawi-stewarded property arranges eleven named rooms within three apartments. That structure makes it a different proposition from a conventional hotel: the first booking question is whether to reserve a particular room or an entire apartment.

A community kitchen, tea and coffee station, Wi-Fi and shared living areas support a more independent rhythm. The included Morning Harvest is a light breakfast of seasonal fruit, yogurt, nuts, spice tea and French-press coffee. Room names connect the house to local ecosystems, creative projects and cultural figures, adding context to the art and objects around the property.

Nobu would consider Tarawanda for curious travellers, friends or longer-stay visitors who enjoy a sociable home-like setting. Sanaa and Jenni are explicitly described as en-suite doubles.
