Pemba – the isle of sultans, cloves, and enchantment

 Pemba, referred to as ‘the green island’, was historically governed by sultans centuries ago.  It served as a significant commerce hub and, along with two other islands, constitutes the Spice Islands located off the coast of Tanzania.  Notwithstanding its promising origins, the island has maintained a pace of life distinctly apart from the fast lane, with The Manta Resort serving as the optimal venue to experience this lifestyle.

 Pemba features concealed beaches, streams, woodlands, mangroves, and wetlands.  Pemba, referred to as the Clove Island, generates about 70% of the world’s cloves, despite its size and population.  Do not be astonished by the enchanting atmosphere of the island; travelers frequently encounter natives recounting stories of its heritage in juju medicine and various forms of sorcery.

 Guests will discover relaxation in these rustic accommodations, whether in the coastal villas where toes touch sand or in the garden rooms that offer glimpses of the ocean through trees.  For an exceptionally unique vacation, guests may reside in The Underwater Room, a floating sanctuary with a bedroom located 4 meters beneath sea level, enabling occupants to watch the surrounding marine life.
