I thought the same too but it has a more "tropical" feel; definitely influenced by Islam. Zanzibar, Tanzania?

Neither of those. You are both correct in that it is African. It is not Stone Town in Zanzibar but apparently the city centre of this city was based on Stone Town.

Not Tanzania. This city isn't far from there though - you are getting very "warm".

This city is far smaller than Dar Es Salaam but is the biggest in its region.

To make it easier, it is south-east of Dar Es Salaam.

That would place it in the Indian Ocean. Madagascar or Comoros. Web sites say Madagascar is not a Muslim nation but Comoros Islands are. Moroni, then?

This one might not stand out by itself, but, together with its neighbors, they collectively give name to a very well known metro area:
