Itinerary
Welcome to Paradise
Upon arrival at Zanzibar Airport, enjoy a private transfer to your luxury resort. Depending on your choice of Qambani or Essque Zalu, settle into your ocean-view villa and explore the lush gardens or dramatic jetty. Spend your afternoon relaxing on your private terrace or strolling the beach before enjoying a chef-prepared fusion dinner as the sun sets over the Indian Ocean.
Qambani or Essque Zalu
Safari Blue Ocean Adventure
Depart for Fumba to board a traditional dhow for the Safari Blue tour. Spend the day snorkeling rich coral reefs, swimming in a natural blue lagoon, and lounging on untouched sandbanks. A highlight of the day is a delicious seafood BBQ lunch served on a remote island. Return to your resort in the late afternoon to freshen up and enjoy a relaxed dinner under the stars.
Qambani or Essque Zalu
Island Serenity
Enjoy a leisurely breakfast and spend the day exactly as you wish. Lounge by the infinity pools, indulge in a spa treatment, or try kayaking and paddleboarding along the coast. You can also visit an on-site art gallery or arrange a private beach dinner. Whether it's yoga on your terrace or sunset cocktails on the jetty, today is dedicated to your personal peace.
Qambani or Essque Zalu
Coastal Tranquility
Continue your journey of relaxation with a full day for personal indulgence. Take a slow barefoot stroll on the beach, read on your terrace, or visit a nearby turtle sanctuary.
