This gorgeous, reef-encircled island just off Zanzibar is worthy of all the hyperbole it attracts. Populated only by the staff and only a handful of guests, it lies in its own aquamarine lagoon, a secret world of the softest, whitest sand, glorious sunsets, giant turtle, dolphin and pretty seashells. Voted by Condé Nast as one of the three most romantic destinations in the world, Mnemba is the height of understated luxury. Ten enchanting beachside 'bandas' are simply decorated with handmade furniture whilst the vast beds are draped with embroidered cotton. Completely private, each is screened by the lush greenery of the island, with a shady sea-view veranda leading directly onto the beach where freshly caught seafood is served under the light of the stars.
Perfect for water babes, Mnemba lies close to some of the world's most beautiful dive sites and the big game fishing Mecca of the Pemba Channel. The adrenaline rush of hooking and landing the fish of one's dreams is as hectic as life gets on Mnemba; the rest is all about relaxing in one of the most perfect island hideaways in the world.
