Caraway Beach Holiday: Summary
Caraway Beach Holiday in a nutshell
This idyllic holiday features a private island bordered by white sandy beaches and tropical vegetation. Stay at the island's only accommodation, the comfortable Fanjove Island Lodge whose charming, rustic design complements its surroundings.
Just six "bandas" are nestled amidst the vegetation, carefully positioned to allow guests maximum privacy. Enjoy the soft hush of waves lapping against the beach as you sit with your banda’s doors flung open, or simply lounge upon the white sand.
For many, this and the surrounding coves and rock pools provide the perfect way to enjoy the island. You can walk round the island, too; explore by kayak or dhow; do a spot of fishing; and perhaps try your hand at kite surfing. And then there is the option of snorkelling or diving: those azure waters are teeming with marine life.
