White Sand Villas and Spa

White Sand Villas and Spa overview

White Sand Villas and Spa is on the east coast of Zanzibar, an exclusive resort on a classically beautiful beach lapped by the Indian Ocean, providing pampered seclusion. The resort covers four hectares and has two hundred metres of beachfront. 

There are just eleven villas, comprising one and two bedded properties plus one vast five-bedroom presidential villa. each is set in its own gardens to ensure complete privacy. As soon as you enter a villa you're struck by the sense of space and the elegant, almost minimal decor which incorporates natural elements like stone, wood and marble. Each villa has a lounge and dining area, and a resting area made of sleeping and bathing rooms and outdoor bathroom. Between the two is a garden and terrace with a private pool and hanging bed. All interiors are air conditioned and have Wi-Fi. The presidential villa also has a home cinema and jacuzzi. 

You'll dine on creative dishes made from the freshest local ingredients, including just-caught fish and perfectly ripe fruit. The bar serves a full range of hot, cold, soft and alcoholic drinks, and there's a lovely rooftop lounge with panoramic beach views.   

Indulge your sense with a visit to the spa where therapists administer your choice of treatment using locally-sourced products. The main pool is a great place to cool off. More active guests will enjoy the thrills of kitesurfing, a White Sands speciality, and other watersports. Staff can arrange activities and excursions, such as dhow cruises, swimming with dolphins and a tour of Stone Town, on request.
