How They Dazzle Us

&Beyond Mnemba Island is beautifully remote with miles of untouched beaches. Getting to the island requires a 90-minute drive from Stone Town, which takes you through the green spice plantations. Options to stop along the way and discover some of the Zanzibar riches allows you the time to taste some of the unique flavours. The styles of Zanzibar are a colourful blend of cultures, ranging from European, African, Arabic to Indian. A boat will transport you to your final destination crossing shimmering blue waters to the white sandy shores of Mnemba Island where you will be warmly welcomed by your gorgeous hosts.

Why We Love Them

You are one of only 26 exclusive guests on the island. The vista looks back onto Zanzibar mainland with the beach in the foreground inviting you to enjoy stunning sunset walks. A perfect destination for a romantic escape, the island offers you candlelit dinners, private beach picnics, or mezze lunch platters in your suite. Plan your stay with a balance between adventure and relaxation. &Beyond Mnemba Island is a water baby’s haven with a PADI dive school on the island, you can take diving or snorkelling lessons. The experienced dive instructors can take you to several underwater wonderlands or simply point you in the right direction to the reef just offshore, within swimming distance.

Their Sustainable Superpower

&Beyond has partnered with Africa Foundation and Oceans Without Borders to protect and support improved marine footprint and management practices. They have focussed on the ‘care-trilogy’ that incorporates the ocean, marine wildlife and coastal communities. &Beyond Mnemba Island provides a platform for baseline research and it seeks to establish or grow marine protected areas, this includes the wildlife. They intentionally introduced the endangered suni antelope to the island and have successfully increased the population by providing a safe environment for breeding, free of predators. To date 250 suni have been relocated back into their original natural habitats. With positive activities such as these, Mnemba Island strives to achieve not just a local, but a global impact.
