Treehouse Tano

Tano, the second of the ‘tea house’ treehouses, offers an enchanting blend of history and nature. Nestled among the fig-entwined ruins of a grand 19th-century mansion, Tano is a reminder of Chole’s vibrant past when it was a bustling hub of trade between the Shirazi Sultanate of Kilwa on the Tanzanian coast and the Omani Sultanate of Zanzibar.

Perched high in the trees, Tano provides sweeping views of Chole Bay, where the gentle breezes carry the whispers of history. When the figs are ripe, this treehouse becomes a favorite gathering spot for the majestic ‘flying foxes’ that inhabit the island, adding a magical touch to your stay.

Tano is part of the original Chole Mjini experience, complete with a charming shower hidden deep within its private garden and a rustic dry toilet on the ground floor. Every detail of Tano invites you to immerse yourself in the natural beauty and rich heritage of Chole Island.
