Boutique Beach Hotel
Ycona Eco-Luxury Resort, a five-star haven on Zanzibar's serene Dikoni coast, blends eco-conscious design with sophisticated indulgence, crafted for couples and celebrated as a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World.
Forty private villas, set across 60,000 square meters of tropical forest and spice gardens, feature stone walls, wood, and glass, harmonizing with the lush surroundings. Each villa offers air-conditioned elegance, private terraces with ocean or garden views, coffee machines, minibars, safety deposit boxes, flat-screen TVs, and bathrooms with bidets. Select villas include kitchens with refrigerators, dishwashers, and ovens, plus rooftop jacuzzis for ultimate relaxation. The resort's infinity pool overlooks a 500-meter private white-sand beach, while the spa, with its yoga patio, rejuvenates with treatments using local botanicals. A fitness centre, forest trails, and activities like snorkeling, canoeing, and cycling immerse guests in Zanzibar's natural splendor.
Dining at Ycona is a journey of flavour across four restaurants. The Heart of Zanzibar, a heart-shaped fine-dining venue, serves African and Mediterranean dishes, from seafood tagines to olive-crusted lamb, paired with wines from an underground cellar. Slyce - The Jungle Pizzeria crafts wood-fired Italian pizzas, while Ycona Beach Lounge offers casual coastal fare. The fourth restaurant specializes in farm-to-table cuisine, showcasing spices from the resort's gardens. Three bars, including a panoramic rooftop lounge, mix cocktails with local fruits and herbs, perfect for sunset sipping. Guests can explore coral reefs or stroll the botanic gardens, enveloped in the resort's eco-luxury ethos.
Located 17 km from Jozani Chwaka Bay National Park, 29 km from Kichwele Forest Reserve, and 38 km from Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, Ycona Eco-Luxury Resort offers easy access to Stone Town's historic charm and Zanzibar's vibrant spice markets.
