Anantara Hotels, Resorts and Spas will develop Anantara Zanzibar Resort as part of the Zanzibar Amber Resort mixed-use lifestyle community. It is expected to open in 2020.
The resort will feature 100 guest rooms, alongside 50 one- and two-bedroom pool villas. Leisure facilities will include a luxury spa and wellness centre, a gym, kids’ and teens’ clubs, as well as three restaurants and bars. The resort plans to introduce marine life and coral to restore and re-create a reef ecosystem.
