Sleeping in Zanzibar, living in Zanzibar
Our 74 villas tell the story of Zanzibar. Inspired by Swahili culture and its many influences, each villa has been sculpted using local know-how. They are distinguished by their curved coral-coloured walls, colourful stained-glass windows that filter the light, decorative screens with unique motifs, and makuti roofs woven from coconut straw. The terrazzo, hand-cast by local craftspeople, keeps the interior cool; while the furniture uses local materials made right here in Tanzania.
These retreats are rooted in their natural surroundings and part of your journey.

Swim-Up Villa
Our Swim-Up Villas are spacious and bathed in light. Each villa has direct access to a shared infinity pool, so you can step into the water from your terrace. An outdoor shower surrounded by nature allows you to cool off; while inside, the king-size bed faces the terrace and promises a gentle wake-up call.
