All about Kipila
Drawing inspiration from its breathtaking tropical surrounds, Vamizi Kipila (meaning “plover” in Kimwani) offers a refreshing palette of blues and greens that accentuate its earthy brown finishes and pitched Balinese-style timber shingle roof. The perfect castaway retreat to reconnect with family members, Kipila is ideally situated within three acres of flourishing gardens that line a vast stretch of private beachfront. It boasts four ensuite rooms that overlook the ocean and a children’s room. The bathrooms have been creatively designed to feature elegant gardens within them, bringing the lush surrounds of the villa indoors.
Languid moments can be spent lounging in the spacious sitting room, cooling-off in the sparkling lap pool or enjoying a game or two in the entertainment area, while a private chef prepares a selection of tantalising favourites for the day. A tower, inspired by the Portuguese lighthouse on the island, offers spectacular views across the ocean; the ultimate setting to enjoy a refreshing cocktail and to toast the sun as it sets over another idyllic day.
