Milele Villas are located on the North-Western tip of Zanzibar, situated around 15 minutes drive away from the villages of Nungwi and Kendwa (great for access to stunning beaches, aquatic excursions and water sports), and only a short walk from Fukuchani natural aquarium.
The villas have an open, unobstructed view onto the beautiful, crystal clear waters of the Indian Ocean. It is also in a prime position to witness beautiful sunsets, as well as watch the heavens for amazing views of the stars. Here, after a long day in the sun, you can watch as the vibrant pinks and oranges of an African sunset merge into the horizon, and celestial constellations manifest themselves one by one as the night sky darkens and deepens.
The surrounding area of Milele is made up of lots of beautiful flora and fauna, most notably mangrove trees and African baobabs – which are often hundreds of years old and are famous for their huge size. These wild and untouched surroundings make for some great mornings and afternoons of exploration. The secluded location here ensures a high level of privacy which is often not possible in other parts of the island – leaving you to enjoy the stunning sunsets and starry skies totally undisturbed.
Milele Villas take pride in being environmentally friendly, and making the most out of their rich natural surroundings.
Electricity is supplied by wind power, and you will see a turbine whirling around as the breeze moves it. Hot water is heated by the sun, and is stored in a solar tank until required.
All fruits and vegetables are handpicked locally, and the meat and fish is also local produce, resulting in a low carbon footprint. Milele Villas also grow papayas and passion fruit in their gardens – which are watered with collected rain water.
The villas are constructed from local natural materials such as coral blocks, and are furnished with recycled dhow (Arabic boats which are popular in Zanzibar). All wood furniture is crafted by Milele’s very own dhow furniture company.
Milele Villas consciously chose not to install air conditioning inside the villas, as AC systems demand high power usage. As an eco-friendly alternative, the villas have been carefully constructed to ensure that they obtain a nice cool breeze through the day and night, so that guests do not feel too hot.
