Indulge in the unparalleled charm of Elewana Kilindi Zanzibar, where opulent luxury meets tranquil ocean views, creating a sanctuary of timeless elegance. Embrace the ultimate escape designed for the discerning traveler.
Kilindi Zanzibar, conceived as a lover's paradise, stands out for its natural simplicity and lush tropical setting, encompassing white-domed Pavilion guest rooms nestled within 50 acres of gardens. Originally crafted for ABBA's Benny Andersson, this resort harmoniously blends Tanzanian and Zanzibari cultures, showcasing Scandinavian minimalism and Middle Eastern architectural influences. Its open, 'back-to-nature' vibe permeates throughout, accentuated by white wooden-slatted shutters and glassless windows offering breathtaking Indian Ocean vistas in each Pavilion suite. The gentle ocean breeze carries the melodious chirping of Kilindi's vibrant birdlife, creating a sensory delight for guests, making any stay an unforgettable experience.
There are a multitude of different transport methods to get to and around Mnemba island. Flights to Zanzibar International Airport or Stone Town are available from various international airlines operating from hubs worldwide. From there, the lodge collects guest and chauffeurs them to the Island. The journey to the island is made up of a 1½-hour road trip (the last 20 minutes are on an unpaved, bumpy road) and a 10 – 15 minutes boat ride in an open ski boat. As there are no jetties, departures and landings are directly to and from the beach and involve a little wading. Please note that boat transfers are weather dependent.
Accommodation
Pavilion Suites
15-domed Pavilion Suites, nestling amongst a 50-acre tropical garden estate, are the perfect intimate retreats for all who come to stay at Kilindi Zanzibar. The Pavilion Suites have their very own private plunge pool, and possess extraordinary ‘rainfall’ shower rooms that truly give the liberating feeling of being 'at one with nature'. The windows are glasless being instead replaced with traditional wooden shutters that allow the sea breeze to permeate throughout the room. The Pavilion Suites complex extends to a separate Shower Room Pavilion annex that provides a rainfall shower, his and her vanity wash basins, a toilet and affords views across the gardens to the ocean beyond.
