On a Nostalgic Journey Up the Coast of Kenya, From Mombasa to Lamu

"Dhow House, located on a beach in Lamu, offers seven bedrooms surrounded by lush gardens. Guests can enjoy rooftop massages and sea-facing yoga, with the faint sound of traditional dhow builders working nearby adding to the ambiance."

Dhow House is spectacular oasis of tranquility, with its huge tendered tropical gardens right on the beach and close to Shela. There are 8-10 well trained staff who fuss over your every need including a hugely talented and creative chef 'Baraka' who is 5-star if not Michelin standard. Breakfast was included and the nice thing was flexibility on timing and choice. Lunch and dinners is served on a grand dining table next to the sunken lounge. Dhow house picked me up from the airport with their own speed boat and organised an amazing trip to remote beach and reef for snorkeling. I also enjoyed the massage and yoga sessions in the turrets studio overlooking the sea.

Dhow House is an absolutely stunning villa right on the beach in Lamu, offering a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and tranquillity. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed into a peaceful paradise with breathtaking ocean views and an incredible atmosphere. The villa itself is beautifully designed, spacious, and immaculately maintained. The highlight for me was the amazing pool, ideal for cooling off while enjoying the serene surroundings. The private cook was exceptional, creating meals that were nothing short of London fine-dining standards – fresh, flavourful, and expertly prepared. If you’re looking for a peaceful getaway where you can fully unwind, Dhow House is the perfect spot. A true hidden gem in Lamu, and I can’t wait to return! Highly recommended.
