The Palms has the feel of an intimate safari lodge... on a stunning paradise beach!
In addition to your villa, you have your own private sala, directly on the beach
Each villa has it's own small private plunge pool
The villas have 2 bedrooms, so are a great option for families with older children (over 16)
The resort facilities of Breezes & Baraza are at your disposal, right next door (spa, dive centre, tennis court, shop, etc.)
Like most of Zanzibar, Bwejuu Beach is tidal... so it’s generally not possible to swim at low tide
The Palms carries a high price tag (but we think it's worth it!)
The Palms has 7 villas, each over 140 square meters in size, with a bedroom, living room, full en suite bathroom, dressing room, extra room with it’s own en suite bathroom & large furnished terrace with plunge pool and views of the Indian Ocean.
Each villa features a sophisticated interior composition in all colours of coffee and cream where filmy caramel coloured curtains billow, dark grained polished floors extend and the décor is a unique marriage of colonial grandeur and traditional design. On the veranda, a silk-draped four-poster Zanzibar Bed accents a sunken, midnight blue plunge pool with long views of the Indian Ocean.
