Pemba is more remote than Zanzibar and can take a few extra hours to get to. The drive from the airport can take up to 75 minutes... but the scenery is stunning as you drive through forests and villages
There is only WIFI in the restaurant and the pool area, and not in the Rooms and Villas
The Aiyana Pemba offers 4 categories of rooms, all beach front.
All 30 villas enjoy wonderful views over the crystal-clear waters of the lagoon, the coral reef and the Indian Ocean beyond.

Dinner is set up in a different, private setting each night… from the resort’s restaurant to a beach setting under a makuti umbrella… or even on the island in front of the resort.
NB: Specials meals and set-ups organized on the beach and in privatized areas within the resort are not included in the All-inclusive package, and will carry extra costs.
Spa
Inspired by the natural elements, and reflecting it’s picturesque island setting, Aiyana’s spa offers pure pampering relaxation!
The diving around Pemba Island is nothing short of breathtaking. The untouched coral reefs surrounding the entire island make Pemba one of the top dive sites in the world.
The sandbank protrudes to offer a walk on the purest white coral sand, surrounded by azure blue waters. After lunch, relax on the sandbank listening to the bird life around you and the splash of waves lapping against the shore!
The Aiyana resort is your outpost into the first steps of the wildness and tranquility of Pemba. Reconnect with nature and experience a land rich in life and uninhabited space. The Aiyana is an ideal place to discover mother nature at its purest state with the blend of local culture and heritage.
You’ll leave feeling dazed by this pure African getaway!
