If picturesque, warm and exclusive are the prerequisites for your memorable honeymoon, mini-moon even babymoon, then search no more, Constance Aiyana in Pemba, Zanzibar is the destination for you.

Pure and chic, Constance Aiyana has been designed and built around the concept of simple materiality and consummate craftsmanship. Born from the vision of Ashok Sungkur, renowned Mauritian landscaper who fell in love with the island of Pemba, Constance Aiyana is an invitation to escape. Local artisans took eight years to create it, using only locally-sourced materials – an approach adopted by Constance Hotels & Resorts to ensure that all of its properties respect and integrate into their environments.

The architecture, high ceilings, pastel white colours, luxuriant vegetation and gardens, traditional building materials come together perfectly and melt into the sublime natural décor of this paradise. The lobby and reception overlook the sea with large open areas ensuring a free flow of wind, air and energy. Simplicity and sensuality is what make Constance Aiyana so special.

Pemba Island is reachable via ferry or a small Cessna aircraft; and then a 90-minute road transfer to our properties' location on the extreme northern edge part of Pemba island on the Ras Kigomasha peninsula. Constance Aiyana offers an isolated retreat complete with all the luxuries and the service you'd expect of a five-star resort – minus the commercial trappings that tend to go with such destinations.

In addition it overlooks a marine reserve, where commercial fishing is not allowed. The water is shallow close to the shore, and then it drops off to the deep Pemba Channel, between the island and the mainland. The resort's boat is available if you want to go on an outing.

Highlights of your stay

  • The ever-present rhythmic sound of sea
  • Discover Pemba island still untouched, raw and pure
  • Reconnect with nature and experience a land rich in life and uninhabited space
  • 30 beachfront villas to choose from - ranging in size from 90m2 to the largest 250m2.

Bird-watchers, nature lovers, daring divers and adventure seekers, come discover the fragrant Pemba Island where one can indulge in a memorable sensory holiday. If you feel adventurous, there is always a rejuvenating spa treatment... The healing, cleansing element of water is a prominent feature at Aiyana, especially at the Maji Spa - "Maji" is Swahili for water. Set in a serene garden, the spa has five treatment rooms and a hydro. Our skilled therapists team will soothe your stress and rejuvenate your body and mind.
