Xanadu Villas & Retreat

Zanzibar › Bwejuu

Xanadu Villas & Retreat is hands down one of the best boutique hotels we’ve ever stayed at — and probably the best in Zanzibar right now. The combination of lush, tropical gardens, winding pathways, and outstanding accommodations immediately made us feel like we were in paradise. We stayed in one of the beachfront villas with a private pool, and we can’t even begin to describe how magical it was. Just picture yourself waking up to the sound of the ocean, taking a morning dip in your own plunge pool surrounded by greenery - and then lounging on the sun bed with absolutely no interruptions. It’s the kind of place that stays with you long after you’ve left. Read more

Kilindi Zanzibar

Zanzibar › Kendwa

Wow! We are struggling a bit how to put our stay into words, because from start to finish our stay at the adults-only Kilindi was incredible. They have some of the absolute best private pool villas in Zanzibar for sure. We felt so relaxed after our 4 nights in our astonishing villa, and we loved having our breakfast there each morning and watching the sunset from the edge of our private pool in the evening. Additionally, the food was absolutely amazing (with one of the most delicious lobsters we’ve ever eaten) and we were constantly looking forward to discovering what our menu was for the day. To top it off, the hospitality of the staff are just impeccable and a joy to be around. Go here, you won't regret it! Read more
