Sharazad Wonders Boutique, hotel in Zanzibar City

Boasting a garden, a terrace and a bar, Sharazad Wonders Boutique is situated in Zanzibar City and is 200 metres from Stone Town Beach.

Stone town center, 3 minutes walk from the seafront. Tasting the city life and relaxing in a comfortable room with superb beds, even for larger western European body type and weight. 20 minutes ride from the airport, so ideal to not have to travel more than an hour after a 14h flight. The staff was full attention and too kind. Nothing to complain. We stayed 5 nights and would have stayed 5 more nights easy!

    We just had to visit, as my wife is the great granddaughter...

    We just had to visit, as my wife is the great granddaughter of Sir Tharia Topan who started the idea of building "The Dispensary" from his own funds to help the provide for the first time, proper organized health care for the locals. After the Revolution in 1965 the building slowly fell into disrepair until some 20 years ago the Aga Khan Foundation took it over and finally reopened it in 2023 as a functioning health center with the latest imaging equipment. Much of the building is open to tourists who are interested in its history
