Palms , Karafuu and
Paje By Night
Breezes
Beach Club
If
you like all the comforts of a luxurious beach resort hotel with
a few personal touches, Breezes Beach Club is an excellent choice.
We think Breezes is one of the most romantic of the large resorts
in terms of décor, service and style. It’s also ideally
situated on the east coast, so endless white beaches, shady palm
trees and a dazzling blue ocean lie in wait.
You’ll find
all the expected beach resort facilities to keep any hint of boredom
at bay - dive centre, watersports equipment, fitness centre (with
a gym, aerobics classes, African dance classes and massage rooms),
themed dinners and even a floodlit tennis court. There’s a
band playing most evenings. You can slip into that little black
dress and boogie the night away at the disco or kick back and sample
cocktails in one of two bars. Life is, after all, a breeze.
The
atmosphere of the main lodge is romantic with flowing fabrics, draped
from the makuti (palm-thatch) roof, fluttering in the balmy shore
breezes. Hand-carved furniture, spice tables and antiques add a
touch of Zanzibar charm. The hotel has recently been given an interior
decorating facelift and is looking beautiful.
The Eastern side of
the island is influenced dramatically by the tide. At high tide
you can plunge into the warm water and swim out from the top of
the beach. At low tide the water recedes towards the distant, fringing
reef, so you’ll need to walk out far in the shallows looking
at the starfish and sea cucumbers (and minding you don’t step
on a sea urchin). The gloriously large swimming pool is a welcome
alternative for cooling off during low tide.
