Forodhani House offers an unbeatable location in Lamu, just steps from Shella Village and Peponi Terrace, with breathtaking 270° sea views of the Indian Ocean. Historically, it was the site of a watch-post, as "Forodhani" means watch-post in Kiswahili. The house is perfect for relaxation, with soothing waves, delicious meals, massages, yoga, and access to the pristine 12km white sand beach, where you can enjoy activities like sailing, swimming, snorkeling, and fishing. You can also explore Lamu Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and experience the local Swahili culture.
The house features five spacious bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, accommodating 10-12 guests, along with various terraces, lounges, a garden, and a pool. The property offers incredible natural views, with frequent sightings of dolphins, fishing boats, and schools of sardines. Forodhani House is staffed by five friendly professionals, including an excellent cook, ensuring a truly magical stay.
