Luxury for less! Zanzibar! ✈️🍹⛱️

A Romantic Retreat 😍should be nothing short of magical! ✨

Like a hidden whisper of paradise, Fundu Lagoon drifts between dream and reality, where the wild embrace of the Tanzanian safari spills effortlessly into the rhythm of the sea. Tucked away on Pemba Island, a jewel in Zanzibar’s fabled Spice Archipelago, this secluded sanctuary unfurls along a mangrove-fringed shore, a place where time slows, and tranquility reigns.

Accessible only by boat, this hidden retreat offers private hillside and beachfront suites, a serene infinity pool, a fusion spa, and an open-air restaurant serving exquisite cuisine.

With a touch of Robinson Crusoe charm wrapped in luxury, Fundu Lagoon invites you to explore clove-scented forests, vibrant coral reefs, and deep ocean wonders, where dolphins dance and jungle whispers fill the air. A place of pure tranquility, it’s more than a destination—it’s a dream set adrift on the tides of adventure. ✨ 🌿🐬

Enjoy *Pay 5 – Stay 7. Prices from £2996.00 per person. Flights from London, Full Board, soft drinks, beer & house wines, boat transfer and Hillside Room. Travel March 2025. Other dates available for pay stay offer.
