Gorgeous 'African chic' décor
The exclusive Bawe Island resort will open in June 2024, welcoming you to elegant surroundings best described as "African chic": contemporary natural materials such as raffia and wicker, natural wood and stone, modern design interwoven with African motifs and objects in soft earth tones. Located near Zanzibar, Bawe Island - a creation of the Cocoon Collection - combines the beautiful tropical entourage with the tranquility of a private island, while lively Zanzibar is just a short boat ride away. The best of both worlds for a wonderful beach stay.
Indulgent luxury and lots of privacy
All particularly luxurious accommodation overlooks the ocean and is surrounded by plenty of space, nature and direct access to the beach. From the shade and comfort of your covered veranda, you can see the azure sea. Walking barefoot through the fine white sand, the sea invites for an invigorating swim. If you are staying in one of the Lagoon Suites, you will be staying right on the water, surrounded by nothing but the crystal clear water. A dreamlike setting, where it seems the sun sets every day just for you. Where the world can't find you...
