ACCOMMODATIONS + MEALS
Our retreat takes place at a gorgeous and private villa, which sits at the edge of Jambiani, a village along the east coast of the island of Zanzibar. The modern style and the Swahili style are elegantly combined, both in the structure and in the furnishings. The property consists of quiet patios and serene living spaces, all surrounded by a lush tropical garden and happy, singing birds. Relax in full luxury under a grass Swahili pavilion while listening to the Indian ocean. The villa will be just ours for the week and there will be plenty of gorgeous areas to relax, unwind and recharge in this magnificent slice of paradise. The rooms are decorated in chic, local style with dreamy inspiration at every corner.
All of the amenities you will need for your special week are included such as wifi, luxurious linens and towels, air conditioning, fans and divine en-suite baths.

A delicious and hearty breakfast is included daily at our wonderful location. Fresh fruits such as local mangos, pineapple and passion fruit, plus juices, eggs, local breads and heavenly sweets are all part of our daily post-yoga meal. You can choose to eat inside in the special dining room or take your yummy meal outside on the patio or by the pool. Daily dinners are included as part of the package. You will be captured by the flavours, colours and scents from the kitchen, a heavenly blend of Swahili and Western recipes with touches of Italian. Vegetarian options and non-vegetarian dishes such as fresh fish are on the menu each evening. An afternoon tea and special snack is also included as part of our package. We will sit poolside with fruit, coffee, tea and freshly baked sweets to refresh and relax before our afternoon yoga session.
