TRANQUIL COVE

Just below the infinity pool lies a tranquil cove of soft white sand where guests can swim in warm Indian Ocean waters and enjoy snorkelling straight from the beach. Scuba diving, kite surfing and stand-up paddle boarding can be easily arranged, and you can even explore the nearby mangrove swamps aboard the hotel’s own traditional dhow. Otherwise, indulge in a massage, sip on a freshly cut coconut from a nearby palm tree and enjoy the hotel’s warm Swahili hospitality. The cuisine is excellent with an emphasis on fresh seafood.

“YES TO ULTIMATE – AND YES AGAIN”
This was our second big trip with The Ultimate Travel Company – and we’d happily use them again and again. The customer service is excellent: they really listen to what you want and make it happen. Their on-the-ground support, wherever you’re headed, is just as strong. Everything was seamless. Highly recommend.

“TRIP OF A LIFETIME ”

Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.

“MONGOLIA STOLE MY HEART – A JOURNEY I’ll NEVER FORGET”
It was one of the best trips of my life. The itinerary you crafted for us was absolutely perfect; I wouldn’t have changed a thing. What made it even more special was the incredible team who looked after us. Edda was fantastic, and the two drivers we had for the Orkhon Valley and Gobi sections of the trip were possibly the best I’ve ever had.
