Area AttractionsAccommodation at Mnarani Beach Cottages
There are 17 comfortable rooms at Mnarani Beach Cottages, situated along sandy paths in the greenery. They're all en-suite with hot water and mosquito nets.
The 12 standard makuti-thatched cottages are small, arranged in pairs and face the sea. They are furnished in simple Zanzibar style and are decorated with fresh blue, pink and white shades. If you're into star signs, you'll enjoy the names of these rooms.
The four new apartments are more spacious and are recommended for couples or families, since the children can sleep downstairs in the lounge and the adults upstairs (in an open-air bedroom). They have a kitchen and one downstairs bathroom
Dining at Mnarani Beach Cottages
One thing about Zanzibar is that they love their seafood, and Mnarani Beach Cottages restaurant reflects this.
Their fish is freshly caught every morning, and comes from the local fish market or direct from local fishermen, which is then prepared for you in traditional Swahili style. If you are lucky enough to catch your own fish, take it to the chef yourself, he will gladly prepare your own catch in whichever way you like it most combined with island spice.
