The Aiyana Resort and Spa offers accommodation in Verani and features a restaurant. The resort has a year-round outdoor pool and views of the sea, and guests can enjoy a drink at the bar.

Certain rooms have a seating area for your convenience. Rooms are equipped with a private bathroom. Extras include bath robes and slippers. This might be the best hotel in the world! The suite was absolutely amazing, even better than shown on the photos! Location is perfect - a pristine beach - white sand, hot clear blue waters - almost noone but some locals fishing near the sand. Some of the food is michelin star worth it - the tuna sashimi couldn't be more fresh, just perfect; the selection of wines is well worth it and the staff is the best we have ever had - professionals, elegants, eager to serve well (and oh they do!!). All the resort if of extreme elegance and good taste. Like I said - this might be the best hotel in the world! Please continue and don't change.

Emerald Bay Resort is located in Chokocho village in the south of Pemba. Surrounded by tropical vegetation, this Arabic-styled resort faces a characteristic natural port.

The accommodation will provide you with a balcony and a terrace. Featuring a shower, private bathrooms also come with free toiletries and towels. You can enjoy a sea and a garden view from all the rooms. Emerald Bay Resort - a relaxed casual intimate resort hidden away from view at the southern tip of Pemba Island - an absolute paradise. The rooms are comfortable with a spacious bathroom and excellent hot water shower. There is a good size swimming pool set in beautiful landscaped gardens - a ideal place to spend a lazy afternoon! All dining is on the roof top terrace - dinners are delicious with lots of fresh seafood caught locally. All the usual breakfast foods available plus GREAT pancakes and local doughnuts! All staff absolutely super friendly and helpful. We were met by Luca who hosted us throughout our stay and we were warmly welcomed into the Emerald Bay family. Luca took us out on the boat (dhow) each day to the amazing pristine white sand banks and turquoise warm sea - totally magical and relaxing. Emerald Bay is truly a genuinely special place, out of the tourist hot spots and absolutely in tune with nature and the location. We loved our stay. Thank you to Luca and Raphael for creating the perfect finale to our East African adventure.

At the resort, every room has a wardrobe and a balcony with a garden view. With a private bathroom equipped with a bidet and free toiletries, certain units at Pemba Paradise also provide guests with a sea view. All units at the accommodation include air conditioning and a desk. The rooms and facilities were much nicer than shown on the pictures. There are beautiful flowers and trees around the bungalows with birds and Bush babies at night and the beach front bar has a fantastic sunset view. The food was excellent and staff were very nice and attentive. There is a well equipped dive shop on site where we organised our diving and snorkelling trips from. We had 6 fantastic days and wished we could have stayed longer.

Located in Wesha, 7.3 km from Gombani Stadium, Pemba Misali Sunset Beach provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar. This 3-star hotel offers an ATM and a tour desk. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. Amazing location, felt like we were the only tourists on this beautiful island filled with spectacular nature. It was really good to see tides in action in this remote location, away from tourist-filled main island of Zanzibar.
