Pole Pole is located on the southeast coast of Mafia Island. It is located on the beach, in a tropical garden, with spectacular views of the Mafia Archipelago and the Indian Ocean. The pool, formed by a series of circles, is located in the sunniest part of Pole Pole. There is also a bar and a shaded seating area in the surrounding garden for comfort and convenience.
The luxurious bungalows are elegant and spacious and set among coconut palms overlooking the bay. The rooms are decorated with carved and antique pieces, and the large private verandas are furnished with a lounger, chairs and coffee table.
The cuisine is a combination of various culinary traditions and cultures, with an Italian touch of class. Most of the food is organically grown and purchased on the island to help benefit fishermen and farmers. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
