This unique place is hard to put into words, it is not a hotel, it is not a camp, it is a home away from home in the trees on a tiny island off the coast of Tanzania… it will not suit everyone, but for those of us that love this sort of thing you will feel like you have found your paradise!
7 unique Treehouses are all that this little peace of heaven accommodates, each individual, rustic yet charming with the feeling of being in the wild in what can only be described as a Robinson Crusoe type setting. This is the perfect place to end a safari for those that love wilderness and want to continue seeing wildlife both above and below the water. A massive draw of this location is the Whale Sharks and the quality of the diving, compared to neighbouring Zanzibar this is worlds apart. Travel in February to escape the northern hemisphere winter, swim with Whale Sharks and to escape the crowds.
To Reach Chole Mjini you mus first fly to Mafia Island, take a drive across the island and a short boat trip to the lodge. Contact us to find out more of what is to love about this place but in the meantime scroll through the photos, get inspired and let us take you to Africa!
