An incredible blend of high-end design and total relaxation.

An absolute paradise! Kiwengwa beach is beautiful, but watching the tides shift from the penthouse terrace was a highlight of our trip. The views from this penthouse are breathtaking, but what truly made our stay unforgettable was the staff. They were friendly, welcoming and anticipated our every need. We cannot wait to come back!

Absolutely amazing! Spectacular Ocean Views and Phenomenal Staff.

Our stay in Zanzibar was absolutely amazing! Vicky was super sweet and incredibly responsive—she made everything so easy from the start. Dan went above and beyond to make sure every detail of our trip was perfect. The property itself was stunning, with spectacular ocean views and phenomenal staff who made us feel right at home. Everything exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to come back—highly recommend! 🌴💖💛

Great Personalized Touches

We agree with all the 5 -star reviews regarding this beautiful home, amenities and friendly, professional staff. Kitchen, bedrooms and baths were fully stocked and had everything we needed. House has a modern beach house look and feel. We appreciated the personalized touches such as hosts picking up groceries for us in advance of our arrival and flower petals on our bed every day after housekeeping service. The view from the balcony was peaceful at all times--loved the ocean view and sounds, starry nights, and sunrise. We could stay in and enjoy the view (order from restaurant that delivers), go out for an adventure, and go for a stroll on the beach and check out local shops. We recommend that guests support local businesses, take time to learn about the rich history, culture, communities and adventures of Zanzibar.

Excellent hidden gem!

Excellent hidden gem. The two floor penthouse was spacious, comfortable and felt like home in paradise. Vikki & team were responsive instantly and communicated frequently. Dan, our manager, went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable; while you stay here, Dan is your man!. airport pick up? no problem. Stocked kitchen needed? sure, whatever you need. Everyday cleaning by nola? spotless! Massage at home or delivery of anything? absolutely! there is nothing they won’t do to make you have your best vacay yet. Beach facing property that’s beautiful and relaxing. Yoga bar next door has excellent vibes and food. Somewhat isolated and that’s a good thing but not too many spots to hang out late at night. Prep ahead of dinner and plan your timings. Can’t recommend this enough.

Daniel the property manager was super nice and was available all the time . He was a big help in every sense to make our stay as easy and comfortable as it would be. I recommend this place, It is furnished beautifully with a clean taste. Book and you won't regret. Tanzanians are very nice people , so go and Hakuna mattata.

One of my favorite places in the world. I will come back there for sure!

Imani is a real 5-star Penthouse, located on the beach in an original Zanzibar village. The whole family spent a wonderful 7 days there. The photos do not fully reflect the beauty and charm of this place. The staff Vikki, Dan, Rachel deserve the highest thanks for the professionalism, flexibility and care they gave us. We also recommend the breakfasts - which were royal - and the proximity of the Indian Ocean 24 hours a day - unforgettable! We highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for privacy, peace and luxury in spectacular natural surroundings.
