The
Elewana Kilindi Zanzibar, consisting of a series of white-domed Pavilion rooms, all set in fifty acres of lush tropical gardens, is a rarity in the world of luxury boutique hotels. Originally designed for Benny Andersson - one of the members of the 1970s pop group ABBA, Kilindi is a true blend of the best of the different cultures found in Tanzania and the adjacent island of Zanzibar. Kilindi achieves the perfect blend of Scandinavian minimalism and the dramatic architectural nuances of Middle Eastern heritage, while encouraging an open, back-to-nature atmosphere. In each of the Pavilion suites, white slatted wooden shutters embrace large arched glassless windows, each offering spectacular views of the Indian Ocean. This same openness allows the gentle ocean breeze to waft through each of the rooms and bring with it the delightful soundtrack of Kilindi's colourful birdlife. Every stay in Kilindi will be a delight for the senses.
