We are proud of our achievement and we continue to keep the island natural so we can all learn what life is about! Fly to Songosongo island, and explore the local community life of fishermen.

Located on the East Coast of the island, it is about an hour away from Stone Town. The lodge is known for its attention to detail.

As is the case for nearly all of Zanzibar apart from some areas up North - Nungwi and kendwa, at low tide the water becomes shallow and it is possible to walk quite far out into the ocean. Low tide ideal for going on an excursion to see parts of the island, join a spice tour, visit Stone Town or head out on a boat trip. You can also just relax by the pool at the hotel. We use Breezes often for guests, especially families, who may not want to spend too much on luxury accommodation. Service is great and the location is good. Most guests opt for the Deluxe rooms staying on Half Board Basis, but you can also select the Standard rooms set further back on the property or a Suite if you want something of a slightly higher standard. -
