After a hectic few days in Stone Town, Amaan was the perfect way to end my Zanzibar holiday. I initially booked a room at Kanjibange Bar, which ended up being the wrong place for a solo older female. When I texted my new friend Maskat (the incredible woman who manages the Learn Traditional Cooking with Mama's of Zanzibar (best cooking class ever - a MUST if you are into learning Zanzibar cooking / culture) how uncomfortable I was at my hotel, she suggested I book at Amaan Beach Bungalows, and I was so glad she did. It was clean, comfortable, with a lovely pool and great massage right there on the property. Steps to the beach and Maasai shopping and easy walking distance to lots of restaurants. Great choice!
