Mnemba Island Lodge

Discover Zanzibar’s exclusive and romantic Mnemba Island

Just off the north-eastern tip of Zanzibar is the exclusive and romantic Mnemba Island, less than 1.5 kilometres in circumference. Mnemba Island Lodge is a private hideaway featuring just 12 beachside bandas overlooking the Mnemba atoll (a ring shaped reef and scuba diver’s dream).

The lodge features a beautiful thatched dining area while the sitting and bar areas look out over the pristine beachfront.  Delicious lunches are often served on large wooden carved Zanzibari platters with fresh locally sourced ingredients including fruit, fish, lobsters, crabs and prawns that are sailed into Mnemba daily on traditional ngalawa outriggers. Guests can also enjoy romantic candle lit dinners on the beach.

Relax and unwind in the exclusivity of your own stretch of beachfront. Explore the pristine reef and enjoy activities including snorkelling, swimming, kayaking and scuba diving. Other options include a leisurely beach walk, relaxing yoga session or in-room massage and indulgent beach picnics.
