Kilindi is located on the northern coast of Zanzibar, set on a pristine stretch of beach near the town of Kendwa. The lodge is nestled in lush tropical gardens, offering breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean. This secluded area is known for its tranquil, uncrowded beaches and spectacular sunsets, providing a perfect escape from the busier tourist hubs of the island.
Luxurious and romantic private getaway with tropical gardens, set right on the beach.
Kilindi Zanzibar, comprising of a series of white-domed Pavilion guest rooms all set in 50 acres of lush tropical gardens, is a rarity in the world of luxury boutique hotels. Originally designed for Benny Andersson - one of the members of the 1970's pop group ABBA - Kilindi is a true blend of the very best of diverse cultures to be found in Tanzania and on its adjacent island of Zanzibar.
Kilindi achieves the perfect marriage between Scandinavian minimalism and the dramatic architectural overtones of Middle Eastern heritage, whilst encouraging an open, 'back-to-nature' ambiance throughout.
In each of the Pavilion suites, white wooden-slatted shutters embrace wide-arched glassless windows each affording spectacular views over the Indian Ocean. This same openness allows the gentle ocean breeze to waft throughout each of the rooms and carry with it the delightful soundtrack of Kilindi's colourful birdlife. Any stay at Kilindi will be a delight for the senses.
With just 15 pavilion-style villas, the resort combines minimalist design with lush natural surroundings, creating an intimate, eco-friendly atmosphere. Each villa features private plunge pools and sweeping views of the Indian Ocean, blending indoor and outdoor living spaces.
