Karibu Alfajiri
Barefoot luxury above the Indian Ocean

Wake to the Indian Ocean, spend your days between the reef and the pool, and leave the rest to a staff who have welcomed guests for twenty years.
“Alfajiri Villas, a secluded, three-villa resort overlooking the azure waters of the Indian Ocean, until now a well-kept secret among luxury travelers. It’s very much the kind of place that people in the know, know about.”

Service and dining
Many of our staff have been with us for more than twenty years, and it shows. Your butler greets you by name from the moment you arrive, and the house runs quietly around your day. Menus are written for you each day — lobster, octopus and line fish from the Indian Ocean, pasta rolled by hand — and served wherever you wish: under the stars, at the water’s edge, or in the privacy of your villa.
