The Perspective
“Set on a lush, forested 32-hectare estate on Zanzibar’s southwest coast, The Residence offers an elegant fusion of Omani, Swahili, and European heritage. It is the perfect post-safari decompression zone, where privacy is paramount, and space is measured in acres rather than square feet.”

The Sanctuary
Vast, walled luxury.
With 66 incredibly spacious villas, each boasting its own large private pool and personal butler service, you never have to leave your sanctuary. The estate is so expansive that bicycles are provided for each guest to explore the tropical gardens and the mile-long stretch of pristine, powder-white beach.
This is where our clients go to melt away the dust of the Serengeti, embracing slow island rhythms and deeply restorative spa therapies.
