Located in Zanzibars Stone Town, Beyt al Chai is a pretty house that was at one time a tea house belonging to a wealthy Zanzibarian merchant. Situated directly opposite the Serena Inn, personal service and an oasis of tranquility in the otherwise busy surrounds of Stone Town, this is a fanstastic choice.

With just 6 en suite rooms, the inn has an intimate and private feel. Horsehair sofas, bold batics and finely crafted Zanzibari furnishings complement a rich palette to create a convincingly authentic traders house. All the rooms are air conditioned, and a couple have wide stone baths.

The layout of the inn gives a real feeling of staying at a friends house, and thus it is very relaxing.
