Your Wedding Accommodation
Bandas/Suites Mnemba Island Lodge comprises just 10 Zanzibari Bandas. Each is built of indigenous materials, mostly woven and thatched with coconut-leaves. A coconut-leaf covered walkway leads to an en suite bathroom with shower, twin hand basins and separate w.c. The Bandas private verandas are nestled in a tropical beach forest and offer direct access to the soft white coral-sand beach. Mnemba is sheer unpretentious paradise.   Guest Areas Thatched open dining and sitting/bar areas have beautiful wide views of the beach and Zanzibar Island in the distance. CC Africa will do everything possible to accommodate specific room requests for the bridal couple, however ample notice will need to be given to do so - at least 3 months. Understandably, any unforeseen events - such as storm damage or similar - might prevent the Lodge from following through with such requests.
