CHAPWANI PRIVATE ISLAND
Chapwani is a small hotel on a private island surrounded
by white sandy beaches only ten minutes away by boat from the capital
Stone Town.There are five bandas (thatched bungalows) each with
two en-suite rooms, making a total of ten rooms.
Inside you’ll find a large double bed – the traditional Zanzibari
four-poster with a mosquito net draped over it – whose plump pillows
are adorned with a freshly-plucked hibiscus flower. There’s a small
table and chair, a ceiling fan, a picture or two, and not much else.
There’s just enough space for a cot or an extra bed. At the back is
a bathroom with basin, shelves and an open-plan shower; and a separate
toilet.
All in all it’s a simple, practical, comfy beach room. Outside
is a wooden terrace with deckchairs, and just beyond that a thatch parasol
with your own sunloungers. The sea is so close that at very high tides
it practically laps at your terrace.

CHUMBE ISLAND LODGE
Chumbe is a small forested island just a few kilometres
to the south of Zanzibar Stone town. It is at the center of a small
marine conservation area and is the site of a small and exclusive lodge.There
are just seven of these fabulously wierd constructions, for a maximum
of around 14 guests, so the island never feels busy, even when full.
The bandas are reasonably well spaced, although could have been farther
apart for our liking, but do nonetheless give a real feeling of being
out in the wilds. All of the rooms look out towards the sea and it takes
just thirty seconds to stroll from the comforts of your hammock to feeling
the warm tropical ocean lapping at your feet. We had a slight preference
for the last two bandas, which give a greater sense of privacy. Built
from palm thatch and other natural materials, these constructions have
a light, airy feel. All rooms are equipped with double or twin mattresses
on the floor of the mezzanine sleeping area, accessed by a ladder. Beds
can be made up as a double or two twins. There are self-contained bathrooms
with hot and cold water shower, large living rooms equipped with handmade
furniture and decorated with African art and colourful fabrics ... and
very comfortable hammocks.
