Tanzania Highlights
Love To Explore Rating: Business Class
Fabjove Island is the smallest of six islands found in the Songo Songo Archipelago off the coast of Tanzania. The private island is surrounded by a beautiful sandy beach, while the island remains largely untouched and natural, studded with coconut trees and tropical vegetation. A 19th century Lighthouse perches on the coastline, now home to the hotel’s restaurant. Dining is not limited to the shaded Lighhouse terrace however; guests can picnic on a nearby sandbar, enjoy lunch on one of the island's beaches or barbeque under the stars. Each of the 18 oceanfront villas is facing, drawing on local and natural materials. Highlights include traditional Makuti roofs and doors handcrafted by artisans from Zanzibar. For those who enjoy marine life, explore the coral reef surrounding the island, which stretches for 11km, experience spectacular dive sites nearby or take a ‘marine safari’ and spot a number of dolphin species which frequently frolic in the waters around Fanjove Island. Fanjove Private Island is a beautiful location to unwind in a unique setting.
At Love To Explore we would recommend the resort for these unique selling points:
- Private Island resort
- Boutique hotel, with only 18 oceanfront villas
- Exceptional marine life

FAQs
Why book a tailor-made holiday with a luxury travel specialist?
The best trips feel effortless, but behind every seamless journey is thoughtful planning and genuine expertise. A luxury travel specialist brings first-hand destination knowledge, trusted recommendations and personalised service to every itinerary, ensuring your holiday is shaped around you. From choosing the finest hotels and experiences to managing all the finer details, tailor-made travel allows you to make the most of your time away without the stress of organising it yourself.
What types of holidays do you specialise in?
Love To Explore specialises in thoughtfully crafted journeys designed entirely around each individual traveller. From slow, sun-drenched escapes on idyllic Indian Ocean islands to immersive, adventure-led safaris through the African wilderness, every trip is shaped by personal style and pace. While Africa and the Indian Ocean remain at the heart of what we do, our trusted network of local experts allows us to extend far beyond, opening the door to extraordinary destinations across the globe.
How far in advance should I book a holiday?
There is no single rule when it comes to booking your next escape, as every journey is completely bespoke. Whether you’re planning a special milestone trip years in advance or seeking a spontaneous last-minute escape, we can help shape it at any stage. That said, for the best choice of boutique lodges and the most sought-after properties, we recommend beginning the planning process around nine months to a year ahead, allowing the widest possible access to availability and experiences. For certain safari lodges and iconic seasonal moments, such as Japan’s cherry blossom season, we would advise planning up to two years in advance.
