How to get here: The villas are around one hour from Mombasa Airport and five minutes from Ukunda Airstrip.

Structure: The stylish private villas are perfect for exclusive lazy days, fine food and panoramic views. Bright and breezy, flowing fabrics and East African artefacts, carved Lamu doors and wooden beams reflect the regions link with Asia. One large veranda with large hand carved sofas and cushions dominates the front of the villa; a stretch infinity swimming pool sits on the edge of a small cliff merging into the sea and the horizon. The bigger villas take up to 10 guests in 4 spacious bedrooms, each having their own large bathroom. All rooms are air conditioned with mosquito nets (3 double rooms and 1 twin). As size and interior decor in the rooms differ.

Fresh seafood is brought in daily from the beach and includes some of the best crab, prawns, lobsters, octopus and sea fish available. The menus have a Mediterranean influence.
