Kilindi Zanzibar is located on the north-west coast of Zanzibar, a semi-autonomous archipelago off Tanzania’s coast. The stylish boutique property is made up of fifteen spacious, white-domed pavilion guest rooms, set in fifty acres of lush tropical beach front gardens. With an adult-only policy, this is the ideal retreat to find some welcome rest and relaxation.

All the guest pavilions have their own private plunge pool and separate outdoor ‘rain shower’. Recent renovations mean that all bedrooms now have air conditioning, if the sea breeze is not ample to keep residents cool enough.

The menu at Kilindi reflects the ocean-side dining with fresh seafood available daily. Chefs are inspired by the abundance of local spices and guests can expect to indulge in local specialties. There are also cookery classes on offer for those wanting to expand their repertoire of dishes with tropical inspiration.

An on-site spa offers a selection of treatments and massages. Yoga instruction is also available to pre-book. For guests wanting to explore, excursions include a historical Stone Town tour and an Island spice tour. Ocean fairing activities include a private sunset dhow cruise and a blue dolphin and snorkelling tour.

Kilindi is unique in its style with the original design being built for Benny Andersson, one of the members of the 1970’s pop group ABBA.
