{"product_id":"tanzania-zanzibar-urban-west-zanzibar-serena-hotel","title":"Zanzibar Serena Hotel","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou stay at Zanzibar Serena Hotel on the Stone Town seafront, in two restored historic buildings that now hold fifty-one rooms facing the Indian Ocean. The hotel opened in 1997 after the restoration of an 18th-century Chinese doctor’s residence and a 19th-century telecoms building, work that contributed to Stone Town’s UNESCO World Heritage status. The rooms have high ceilings, whitewashed walls, and private balconies; some have four-poster beds with mosquito nets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rooftop Terrace Seafood Restaurant serves fresh catch with views over the bay, and the Baharia Restaurant hosts weekly Swahili banquets by the pool. The Masahani Bar pours cocktails to live Taarab music in the evenings. The hotel has a spa, a conference room for forty, and a swimming pool set back from the shore.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStone Town’s narrow streets and markets begin at the hotel’s door. The restoration preserved the buildings’ original Swahili and Arabic architectural details, including carved wood and arched niches. The Indian Ocean is the constant — you hear it from the rooms, see it from the rooftop, and swim in it a short boat ride away.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tanzania","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51932498723036,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/8256\/8156\/files\/zanzibar-serena-hotel-shangani-st-zanzibar-tanzania-01.webp?v=1783204733","url":"https:\/\/murmurgo.com\/products\/tanzania-zanzibar-urban-west-zanzibar-serena-hotel","provider":"Murmurgo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
