Lamu Island is a place where time has stood still. Here you can do nothing, just relax and read a book, listen to the birds, go for a stroll along the beach.
Enjoy a relaxing massage with our in-house masseuse using natural oils extracted from indigenous Kenyan trees and take a dhow trip to the Takwa ruins, former home to the people of Shela village.
