Bluebay Beach Resort and Spa

This charming beachfront resort is a favourite with Kuoni guests. Bluebay’s beautiful 30-acre gardens house over 1000 palm trees. The Makuti Restaurant is the main eatery set around the large swimming pool, and if you book on All Inclusive, you’ll take all your meals here. Breakfast is a relaxed affair, offered buffet-style or from the live cooking stations. For dinner, you’ll be able to sample a variety of different cuisines during your stay through ten themed evenings, which include Indian, Swahili and Italian. And the theme carries on after dinner, when there’s entertainment ranging from Swahili dancers to acrobats. Each night there’s also live music from the resort’s resident band. Other dining options include the Makuti thatch-roofed Beach Bar & Restaurant for daytime pizza and snacks, and the evening restaurant, Bahari Grill, which serves up an à la carte menu specialising in succulent steak and seafood. At the Oasis Spa, ask the therapists to mix local spices and fruits right in front of you and you’ll see how freshly prepared the treatments are here. The spa has a small pool in a lovely stone-walled garden and seafront treatment rooms. There’s also plenty to do at Bluebay, with a range of sports and water sports.
