Fanjove Island is a fantastic somewhat rustic property on a completely private island off of the Tanzania coast. This is the perfect place if you like a no shoes, no news kind of approach to your beach stay and are more than happy to forgo the gold tap style luxury for the luxury of being on an isolated beach with noone else around.
Nobody lives on Fanjove, except you and the dedicated staff, the whole island is rented from the near-by village of Songosongo. The property also makes contributions to the social development of the community. You will fly to Songosongo island, and you will be able to explore the community life of the fishermen from the time “long ago”, and then you will have a short boat ride to Fanjove Private Island, accompanied by a pod of Bottle Nosed dolphins, if you are lucky.
