East Coast Zanzibar Mountain Vacations

We had an exceptional stay at Ycona Luxury Resort—truly one of the best resorts I’ve ever visited. The villa was beautifully designed, combining luxury with lush greenery and a variety of trees that created a peaceful and refreshing atmosphere. As a wildlife enthusiast and photographer, I was thrilled to spot incredible species right from the resort grounds, including a Zanzibar Red Colobus monkey, a Red Squirrel, and the stunning Woodland Kingfisher. Everything about the stay felt curated and serene—from the elegant layout of the resort to the natural surroundings. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a luxurious yet nature-filled retreat in Zanzibar.

Beautiful property, we are so glad we chose the Mora. The staff was friendly and helpful. They have everything you need. The food and drink options were plentiful. The buffet has plenty of options and the Indian food was amazing. The beach front was gorgeous. You don’t need to leave the property and explore the island but you can if needed. Thank you Mora!

Excellent and attentive service, beautiful property, and the food was absolutely delicious! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the interiors of the room were beautiful and the service was impeccable. Highly recommend to anybody visiting Zanzibar!

The property was beautiful and the Villas stunning and unique!

This is a fantastic property set in the ruins of an old school. Rooms clean and comfortable. Wonderful outdoor dining area with delicious food and a small private beach. So relaxing and close to airport and Stonetown. A highlight of our stay in Zanzibar.

Nice rooftop bar with food . Clean property in centre of stone town , walking distance to tourist sites . Stunning hotel

Proprietress and her staff were amazing. Meals superb. I was really looked after. They booked tours for me also. Would definitely stay there again
