Company info
I have been living in Lamu for 7 years my late husband (who is from Lamu) and I built this house in 2023. This is the only property that I manage and it's here that you can enjoy the peacefulness of this island.
Property info
Enjoy our pool and spacious garden, stunning dune views, while hearing the wind blow through our Mbibo (Cashew) tree. Our house is the perfect place to enjoying some peace and quiet! With a dedicated chef and staff within the price!
Our 4 bedroom, 5 bath house is an easy 15 minute walk to Peponi Beach, or 15 minutes over the sand dunes to the Shela / Kipungani beach our little oasis feels a world away from the noise of the village!
We will also arrange airport pick up and drop off for an extra fee. We can’t wait to host you!
Neighborhood info
We're about 10/15 minute walk from the seafront in Shela village, expect space, peace and quiet in this part of the village! From here you can climb the dunes to reach the 12km stretch of beach or amble easily into the village to enjoy the attractions there!
