Mnemba Island Lodge
Mnemba Island Lodge | Zanzibar
Mnemba Island Lodge is a romantic hideaway and one of the most exclusive, private islands in Africa. Just 1.5km in circumference and remotely located on the nort-east coast of Zanzibar, this rustically beautiful property by award-winning travel brand, andBeyond, offers a barefoot luxury and effortlessly intimate beach experience.
Just twelve beachside bandas are built from local materials and lay shaded by towering palms on the edge of the unblemished sands and turquoise waters. Indigenous Suni antelope and Ader’s duiker can be seen roaming freely throughout the grounds and past the cottages. Sensational open views of the tempting ocean ahead as well as direct access to the beach, allows guests to completely relax and unwind within a tranquil and natural environment.
Dine on freshly caught lobster, fish and savour tropical fruit platters and Tanzanian coffee to awaken the senses or revel in a romantic candle-lit dinner on the beach with the waves lapping at your feet.
Mnemba Island is a protected nesting ground for green turtles which means that privileged guests may get to witness the babies hatching; peak turtle season is between April to August. Charming dhow cruises, intrepid water sports, seaside adventures and a diversity of marine life can all be explored from this private paradise island lodge.
