The Lodge and Restaurant

Perched on the edge of the Wasini channel, with commanding views of the Tanzanian Usambara mountain range you'll enjoy cool ocean breezes while covered by a canopy of tropical trees visited by monkeys, bush babies and birds. Your palm-thatched cottage becomes your hide-away.

For a memorable romantic stay, reserve our private roof-top suite with views across the Wasini Channel.

Excursions

Dhows, the traditional Swahili vessel, are still the best way to experience the archipelago around Shimoni. Our dhows offer comfort with tradition and refreshments on board allowing you to spend as much time as you like discovering the area.

After visiting the islands, walking across Wasini and visiting the slave caves of Shimoni, it's time to head for Shimba hills and see the elephants, only an hour away.

Activities

Shimoni. Your gateway to explore deserted beaches and islands, snorkelling, diving, fishing, kite surfing, swimming with dolphins, gastronomic Swahili cuisine, star-filled night skies and definitely no discos. A modern Robinson Crusoe would feel right at home.
