Watersports such as kite surfing, scuba diving, fishing trips and snorkeling can be arranged. Day excursions can be planned through the concierge desk and include Stone Town tours, spice farm tours, dolphin sightings excursions, and visits to Jozani Forest.
The heavenly views of turquoise waves that lap along the powder-white beach - the perfect inspiration for hours in the sun, or diving into the watersports on offer.
While you could easily spend all day on the beach or in the water, enjoy a bicycle ride through sleepy fishing villages and go for a lunch out at the famous Rock restaurant too.
Some villas are much closer to the beach than others so choose wisely - although all are well-spaced for total privacy.
