Emerald Bay Resort
Chake Chake Bay, Pemba Island, Zanzibar – Authentic Swahili Elegance
Relaxed Pace
Emerald Bay Resort is a boutique gem located on the southern shores of Chake Chake Bay. Designed with traditional Swahili architecture, the resort features beautiful arches, carved wooden doors, and open-air terraces that invite the cooling sea breeze.
The resort offers an intimate atmosphere with a limited number of rooms, ensuring personalized service and a peaceful environment. Each room is tastefully decorated with local Zanzibari furniture and offers views of the lush tropical gardens or the shimmering waters of the bay.
One of the highlights of staying at Emerald Bay is the culinary experience. The restaurant is famous for its seafood platters and authentic Pemban recipes, often served on the rooftop terrace where guests can enjoy panoramic views of the bay as the sun sets.
Emerald Bay is also an excellent base for exploring the surrounding waters. The resort operates its own traditional dhow, providing exclusive boat excursions to the nearby Misali Island and sandbanks that disappear and reappear with the tides.
Experience the true soul of Pemba Island through the hospitality and heritage of Emerald Bay Resort.
