The Mwezi suite — the moon side of Villa Kidosho.

About this video
Filmed in the morning light, this video shows the Mwezi suite at Villa Kidosho — its private terrace, Arabic-Omani interiors and ocean view. Mwezi is one of the villa's two ocean-facing suites, sharing the infinity pool with Jua.
Mwezi is the right-hand suite of Villa Kidosho, and the name means moon. A carved wooden moon, lit from behind, hangs behind the bed. Outside, the Pemba-grass terrace has a wooden sun lounger, a pool shower at the back right and a small makuti hut with two lounger seats, and a big swing bed stands down on the beach.
Filmed at Boutique Hotel Matlai
Filmed in February 2025 at Villa Kidosho, part of Boutique Hotel Matlai at Michamvi Pingwe on Zanzibar's east coast.
