Sao Tome and Principe

Africa’s Lost Eden of Chocolate and Clouds
São Tomé and Príncipe is the ultimate "off-the-grid" luxury experience, a volcanic archipelago where the rainforest meets the Atlantic. Arrive via private airplane and take a charter flight to the remote island of Príncipe, home to exclusive private island resorts and secluded villas like Sundy Praia. Embark on a specialized nature safari through the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve to spot rare endemic birds and trek to the "Lost World" peaks of Pico de São Tomé. Navigate the pristine coastline via a private yacht cruise, stopping at the "perfumed islands" of the Gulf of Guinea. Stay in historic roça resorts—reimagined colonial cocoa estates—where you can experience a "chocolate safari" from bean to bar. From diving in crystal-clear waters to private dinners in the jungle, these islands are a prestigious frontier for the pioneer traveler.
