We always stay at the Mtoni Marine Center.
This hotel is the closest resort to Stone Town that is on the beach - about 6 kilometers. The staff is very accomodating and the location is extremely convenient if you want to do sightseeing and shopping in Stone Town. The rates at Mtoni are excellent and their restaurant menus have a good selection - you can stay put at the Mtoni Marine Center.
They also have a pool, massage therapy, a dhow that can be contracted all on site. The staff has always been great about scheduling other activities for us when we stay there, as well.
We have never traveled to Zanzibar with our children, but the Mtoni is absolutely family friendly.
You can reach them at mtoni@zanzibar.cc. Telephone 255-24-2250-140

Also in Stone Town, our favorite "Shop that you Might have to Dig through to Find the Goodies" is the Zanzibar Curio Shop. Two brothers run the shop and they are super. Every time we are there we find something we cannot live without.
Eateries in Zanzibar -
Freddie Mercury's for fun atmosphere, good music, nice food.
The Africa House for a spectacular view at sunset and cold drinks.
The Maharaji for great Indian Food.
