The stone says it all…
When I visited, the hotel had only been open to the public
for 5 months.
But they certainly have made an impression in a short space of time

Park Hyatt Zanzibar.

together with oversized lighting

One of the treatment rooms in the Spa.
Staffed by Thai therapists,
I have it on good authority that they were excellent masseurs.
Once your treatment is done,
guests can relax on this private balcony

and outside in the hotel gardens
Time for lunch…
Or a juice at breakfast.
The staff were always friendly and smiling

Unlike most oceans, the Indian is very calm.
And even when the wind was blowing, there were very few waves.
Thus making it idea for swimming and snorkeling
