Beach House Zanzibar
Fusion restaurant
ππ This place was recommended to me as a great spot to see the sunset and it does not disappoint. Unobscured views of the ocean and sunset, but also sitting above the beach where people walk by/chill/play football.
Relatively new to the area, and so the place attracts a lot of people.
But even at peak...

Lazuli Cafe
Restaurant
ππ Honestly this place deserves more attention, it is an amazing little restaurant with fresh food geared towards healthiness. Absolutely AMAZING juices that you can create with your own mix of fruits, very good seafood (the tuna deserves a mention of honor) and very relaxed environment.
