GENERAL OVERVIEW
Pole Pole is a beach lodge on tiny Mafia Island, surrounded by tall palms and sea breezes. Excellent diving and snorkeling can be experienced in the nearby Chole Bay. Comfortable luxury and friendly service makes this the perfect place to unwind after a safari.
THE ACCOMMODATION
Each of the seven bungalows covers 60 sq m with personalized fixtures and furnishings. The floors are made out of hardwoods, the furniture from mahogany and the door and window frames from doussi. The beds have wooden slats and high quality spring mattresses. The verandahs have large 'day beds', tables and chairs looking over the water through the palms. Bathrooms have double washbasins, showers, bidets and toilets. There are two ceiling fans in each bungalow, one in the bedroom and the other on the verandah. Two of the bungalows are linked making them ideal family accommodation. The food here is superb, a blend of different culinary traditions using mostly organically grown food bought from local farmers and fishermen. The bar serves fresh fruit juices, a range of cold drinks, beer, wine and other alcoholic beverages. Bottled water is provided in each bungalow daily.
RESTAURANTS / BARS
The cuisine is a combination of diverse culinary traditions and cultures, with an Italian style touch of class. Swahili dinners are served once a week or on request. The resort caters for special dietary requirements whenever possible. Most of the food we serve is organically grown and bought on the island to help fishermen and farmers benefit from tourism development.
