Beach House is one of the most breathtaking in Lamu, with a location directly overlooking the channel, a horizon pool that makes you wonder where the water ends and the view of the sea begins. The rooms have their own balconies and an uninterrupted view of the Indian Ocean. Read more?
Being self-contained and exclusive, the experience is one of staying in an opulent yet tasteful personal villa where you can lounge around and read a book, swim in your own private pool and enjoy the fresh seafood as if you owned the place. The house staff are extremely friendly, helpful and capable and bar an indication of which seafood delicacy you would like to sample next, will look after you discreetly and unobtrusively.
They will look after meals, give you information about what there is to do and how to get around (there are no cars on Lamu) and generally make your stay a thoroughly pleasant one. There's a lot to do on Lamu but it will only take you a day or two to realise that you don't have to feel guilty for just kicking back and relaxing.
Lamu's a Muslim town and it's worth remembering that alcohol isn't readily available here. You can have a pleasant sundowner on the terrace of the nearby hotel, Peponi, and one or two other places but most guest houses and hotels don't actually serve alcohol. You can however bring your own with you.
Location - Kenya Coast North
