Bawe Island
The Cocoon Collection
Zanzibar - Tanzania
★★★★★
HomeLocated just a 15-minute boat ride from Stone Town, Bawe Island is
more than just a resort: it's a secluded private
island where the concept of "barefoot luxury" reaches its zenith.
Designed by The Cocoon Collection, this exclusive retreat redefines
privacy in the Zanzibar archipelago.
The island's architecture is
based on perfect harmony with the surrounding nature. The structures
utilize natural materials—wood, thatch, and stone—to create protective
and elegant "cocoons" that blend seamlessly into the tropical
vegetation.
Island Highlights:
* Absolute Privacy: The island offers only 70 sumptuous villas, each with its own private pool and direct access to the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.
* Holistic Design: A refined bohemian-chic style, blending local craftsmanship with ultra-modern comfort.
* Signature Dining: Several restaurants offer fusion cuisine ranging from East African flavors to international standards, with an emphasis on ultra-fresh seafood.
* Wellness Sanctuary: An exceptional Spa offering treatment rituals inspired by local traditions and the benefits of the island's spices.
True to The Cocoon Collection's philosophy, Bawe Island strives to minimize its environmental footprint through sustainable water management systems, optimized solar energy, and active protection of the coral reefs surrounding the island.
Nestled in the lush nature of an island off the coast of Zanzibar, Bawe Island consists of only 70 exclusive independent villas with private pool, cocooned in the lush and wild nature. Each accommodation features luxurious amenities, refined interiors and breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean and its crystal blue waters, providing an oasis of elegance and serenity.
Personalized attention is ensured by a dedicated butler service providing tailored and anticipatory assistance to the guests in all the villas.The charm of ”the island in the island” concept and a contemporary design mixed to African-chic influences, are the premise to offer an environment of unparalleled charm for those that are looking for an intimate and exclusive space.

- "No News, No Shoes" resort philosophy
- Aerial and land safaris: Thanks to the island's heliport, you can depart at sunrise for a "Fly-in Safari". A plane or helicopter will take you directly to Tanzania's national parks (such as the Serengeti or Selous) to observe the Big Five, with a return to the island for dinner.
- Private "Sandbank" Experience: At low tide, white sandbanks emerge in the middle of the Indian Ocean. You can be dropped off by boat on one of them for a chic picnic with a private waiter or a completely secluded snorkeling session, surrounded only by turquoise water.
The Sand: Main restaurant "Feet on the sand", offering BBQ dishes and local seafood.
Rising Sun : A dedicated Teppanyaki area, located under a majestic baobab tree.
Sinfonia: An authentic Italian trattoria with a traditional pizza oven.
The View Bar: Ideal place for sunset cocktails with live music and DJ
Private Experiences: Romantic dinners in a cave, private picnics on a sandbank, or private dining in the privacy of your villa.
