THE NOBU VIEW

YOUR OWN POOL. YOUR OWN PACE.

A villa-led Zanzibar chapter where the terrace and the coast can shape the day.

SafiraBlu brings a villa-led stay to Kissnakani, in the wider Nungwi area. Coastal vegetation, rocky edges and small stretches of sand give this corner of Zanzibar its own character.

Twelve individually named villas each have a private pool. The shared infinity pool, spa, fitness facilities and dining leave room to spend time beyond your own terrace.

OUR TAKE

Consider SafiraBlu when time at your villa matters as much as exploring the island. Choose the specific villa around your party, then plan excursions from the actual Kissnakani location.

02 / Your space

Twelve villas. Individual choices.

Each named villa has a private pool.

Nobu will confirm guest capacity, children and extra beds, connecting rooms and any step-free or accessibility requirements with the property.

Villa sizes and maximum occupancies have not been established. Bed details are shown only where recorded.

NO NEED TO RUSH

LIFE AT YOUR OWN PACE.

Space around your villa, with the resort beyond it.

WE’LL THINK THROUGH
THE CONNECTIONS.

SafiraBlu is at Kissnakani, in the wider Nungwi area. Plan transfers and outings around this location rather than assuming central Nungwi is on the doorstep.

From your flight

Share the flight timing so Nobu can plan the road transfer and time to settle in.

Exploring the island

Discuss the places you want to visit, with travel time planned from the villa’s actual location.
