5 star hotels in Zanzibar all inclusive

Holidays in Zanzibar are perceived by many Russian tourists as too exotic, but they are gradually becoming more and more popular. From the point of view of resort pastime, the place is impeccable. The ecology is excellent here - there are still too few achievements of civilization. The climate, although tropical, is comfortable even for northerners - there is no such thing as unbearable heat. It's nice to swim, to sunbathe, especially since the beaches of Zanzibar are excellent: soft white sand, a gentle entrance to the pristine water of the Indian Ocean (however, you need to take into account the schedule of ebbs / flows and the presence / absence of sea urchins).

The nature is truly African, exotic and interesting, there are reserves and national parks, you can see and show children live monkeys and other creatures without any zoo. And finally, this is a real paradise for divers and snorkelers: clear water and a variety of inhabitants of the underwater world.
