This beautiful and spacious villa is away from the hustle and bustle of Shela, in the peaceful sand dunes behind the village. The beach/village are a 10 min walk away down a sandy lane. There are 5 stylish bedrooms across 3 floors, each with ensuite bathrooms (sleeping 10 guests). We have 3 kitchens with indoor/ outdoor living areas and relaxation spaces - so you can take your pick where you want to eat. There is a huge roof terrace on the top floor, perfect for star gazing as well as a plunge pool to cool down. Please note - it is not a swimming pool but a large plunge pool. Our lovely staff keep the house immaculate & will handle your laundry. There's is solid wifi for streaming and remote working. We can arrange airport collection as well as a private chef. The cost of a private chef team is 2000ksh per day and for this they would cook breakfast, lunch and dinner, including a take away lunch if you’re planning to be out. The cost of ingredients is additional but it’s an economic way to eat on the island, especially as a group. We would organise this and you would pay the chef separately. Airport collection is 2000ksh each way and again you would pay the boat captain

The villa is located a 10 minute walk from the centre of Shela and its restaurants including Peponi, Kijani and Bahari. Being a car free village this means you'll have to walk the sandy track. Our staff will help with your luggage on arrival. Like the rest of Shela it is very safe and we also have a security guard/ groundsman that lives on site and who is on hand to escort you to and from the village should you desire. Please note that Lamu is predominately Muslim so you will be able to hear the call to prayer both in and around the village. Since we are not in the middle of the middle it is quieter and more peaceful. Banana House is just a 7minute walk away and hosts daily yoga sessions (drop in class packages are available) as a well as a wellness area for massages and facials. Once your booking is confirmed we will send you lots of contacts and suggestions for activities - all of these can be booked on arrival and our team will be happy to help you.
