Kisawa wins Experientialist Award

Kisawa wins the 'Escapist - Far & Away' Category for 2024/25

We are delighted to be named joint winner of prestigious UK publication, OutThere magazine’s 2024/25 Experientialist Awards, in the Escapist category. ⁠

It’s hard to imagine a more alluring home-away-from-home in this youthful, culture-rich country, or a more heavenly, away-from-it-all beach location than Kisawa Sanctuary“.⁠

The awards are a feel-good celebration of luxury brands and visionaries who’ve gone above and beyond with bold, community-driven and downright ingenious initiatives in luxury travel: achievements we aspire to as a daily commitment. ⁠

Thank you Uwern Young, Stefan Michels and the entire OutThere team and judging panel, we are still celebrating on Benguerra Island. As a property that is based on the connection between people and place, being named an Experientialist Award winner is wonderful and affirming feedback.

As always, a joyful and full hearted thank you to the Kisawi & BCSS teams for making this a possibility, and our leader, Nina Flohr – courageous in every chart.⁠

Please read on for all the winners and nominees, and take a sneak peek at the incredible event held in London’s Corinthia Hotel earlier this month.
