Green and Blue; holiday and honeymoon guide to Zanzibar

The newly opened Green and Blue sitting at one end of Matemwe beach, this is a fresh looking compact hotel set within lush leafy gardens. With three different room types, all identical in design and size, except for the pool front and beachfront bungalows both have a private outdoor plunge pool. The restaurant, in a fantastic spot perched overlooking the sea, serves delicious Zanzibarian food with a modern twist. The resort has three freshwater swimming pools, one being a spa pool, and are excellent for relaxing around if you do not fancy the sometimes busy beach, which sometimes can also have a problem with sea urchins.

Green and Blue - The Facts

The spacious and cooling 12 bungalows at the compact and intimate Green and Blue are similar in design, except for the beach and pool-front bungalows having an outdoor plunge pool. Dining here is a highlight, not only do you have the best views on the island, but also serving some of the best food as well. Pampering comes from the small intimate spa that uses local and typical African techniques to sooth the soul. For divers and snorkelers the resort has a PADI Dive School for and can arrange trips out towards the famous Mnemba Island. We believe there are better lodges for honeymoons.
