HONEYMOON Island Paradise 2101 views

If you are looking for a slice of paradise, head to the tiny island at the north-eastern tip of Zanzibar, Tanzania and check in to the private, barefoot beach resort, &Beyond.

Overlooking the Indian Ocean, &Beyond Mnemba Island is an island resort for just 20 indulgently pampered guests - the perfect honeymoon retreat for couples seeking luxury and relaxation. With powder white sands and just ten guest 'bandas', beachfront havens, it is the ultimate setting for a luxurious, Robinson-Crusoe experience. As a breeding ground for the endangered green turtle, it is also a nature paradise and has access to some of Africa's best dive sites. You'll also enjoy snorkelling and swimming straight from the beach - the water is unbelievably clear and as blue as the sky.

Mnemba Island's chef is used to cooking for guests accustomed to eating in the best restaurants around the world and says, “From the freshly baked spiced biscuits served with morning tea to your banda, to the just-caught ceviche offered with sundowners on the beach, we hope to pamper, indulge and surprise our guests with every mouthful of lovingly prepared food. We want our guests asking for seconds at every meal – and for the recipes, too!”
