Positioned at the foot of the Shela dunes bordering the village, this private villa places you moments from Lamu’s unspoilt beach — accessible via the dunes or through the village lanes. The house combines traditional Swahili character with relaxed, indoor-outdoor living: leafy gardens, a sun terrace, and a pool create a calm base for days on the coast and unhurried evenings at home. The layout is designed for groups. Five bedrooms each include an ensuite bathroom, providing privacy for up to ten guests. Shared spaces centre on a comfortable living room and an open garden-pool axis for effortless downtime and sociable meals. A dedicated workspace and free Wi-Fi support those who need to check in while away. Additional touches include an open-air bath and on-site bar for simple service. Outdoors, the pool invites morning laps and afternoon cool-offs, while the sun terrace and lawned garden offer shaded reading spots and child-friendly play space. From the gate, stroll to the shoreline for swims and sunset walks, or explore Shela’s cafés and dhow departures. Good to know: carbon-monoxide and smoke alarms are not listed on the page; exterior security cameras are present. Check-in is after 11:00 and checkout before 10:00\.
