Absolute paradise. You could not ask for a more beautiful location - the view of the beach with its iridescent colours took our breath away. The setting and ambience of the villa is idyllic; a true taste of Africa in a friendly and relaxing environment. We were looked after extremely well with friendly staff who wanted to ensure our stay was one to remember. Whether drinking a glass of wine on the verandah watching the locals fishing, strolling along the whiter than white sands or playing boules with the Masai it was definitely a holiday we will never forget!

I Couldn't have asked for a better place to spend my 70th Birthday... little did I know that I would leave a bit of my heart and soul on the island of Zanzibar. So bring your sense of adventure and leave with a sense of wonder. Zanzibar and the villa will forever be an amazing memory for me.
