The property boasts a collection of exclusive villas, each offering private bar areas, spacious double bedrooms with king-sized beds, and en-suite bathrooms with ocean-view sunken bathtubs. Outdoors, guests can bask in comfort in secluded lounge areas or take in the panoramic Indian Ocean vistas from their private rooftop decks with sparkling plunge pools. Sustainability is a core value, with locally sourced cuisine, sustainable seafood, and a commitment to eco-friendly practices. Personal chefs cater to your culinary desires, whether you choose to dine beneath the stars, at the open-air restaurant, or opt for a beachfront picnic.

If you are looking for pure escapism, these villas – which combine the spirit of Zanzibar with the highest standards of comfort – were designed for you.

Food & Drink

All the food is sourced locally, including fruit and vegetables, and seafood is obtained from local suppliers who employ sustainable techniques. This means, for example, that they refrain from purchasing net- or spear-caught fish but exclusively opt for those caught on lines. When guests discuss their chosen menu with their personal chef each day, they are encouraged to select the preferred dining location. The establishment provides picnic lunches for excursions to the sandbank and Muyuni beach. For guests embarking on the Stone Town tour or spice tour, they have the option to be escorted to a restaurant in Stone Town if they so desire. In the evening, guests can savor dinner prepared by their private chef beneath the stars, or they can take a leisurely stroll to the main lodge to enjoy a seafood buffet at the open-air restaurant.
