Cumin Beach Holiday: Summary
Cumin Beach Holiday in a nutshell
Spend five nights at Qambani, a luxurious lodge with six modern villas and personalised service. The lodges remote location means that the beach remains blissfully quiet, and with plenty of space and only a handful of high-quality villas this is an ideal place to come and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the island. The one-bedroom villas are great for couples, while the two-bedroom villas work well for families.
Flop besides one of the two swimming pools, take a kayak and paddle around the shallow shoreline, or unwind with a massage in the small spa, then round up the day tucking into a seafood platter – we thought the food was excellent. Qambani prides itself on its open plan kitchen and guests are welcome to come and cook alongside the chef, with children learning how to make tasty treats.
If you are feeling active then there are plenty of opportunities to get out an explore the island. Book a morning snorkelling trip to the barrier reefs and discover the plethora of marine life off Zanzibar’s shores. Go in search of the red colobus monkeys in Jozani Forest, visit the spice plantations and hear about their culinary and medicinal uses, or take a guided tour of historic Stone Town and gain an insight into the history of the island.
