Company information

We run a family business. We moved to Zanzibar from Europe for the love of the ocean, beach, coconut palms and sun :) We will try to make you feel at home <3 Sylwester is a chef who will ensure that the standard of the cuisine is exceptional. We decorated the interior ourselves, each room is different and has an undeniable atmosphere. In the common area you will find a small shop with our products - from hand-prepared pickles and jams to hand-made jewelry. We invite you to taste our island lifestyle with us :)

Property information
