"Peponi review"
We had a lovely room (#25) with private access through window to the swimming pool.
Also swam in the lovely clean sea right outside our room.
Lots going on - bar and restaurant busy with residents and visitors.
Hotel guests have tables reserved automatically on a residents only terrace and also have a residents only rooftop bar.
Family friendly - seemed to be somewhere where those from around the world gather.
Lots of activity on offer - Carole is a very proactive host.
We took a boat for lunch at The Cabanas near Kipungani one day - a lovely spot and a great escape from the bustle of Shela." See all these reviews: 20n in Kenya
"Peponi review"
We had beautiful rooms with a view of the ocean, we ate extremely well, and the activities (cooking class with locals, sunset sailing, Lamu excursion) were really interesting.
Highly recommended." See all these reviews: 9n in Kenya
"Beautiful, relaxing, delicious"
Boat transfers from the airport and into Lamu town are a bit challenge with some mobility difficulties (uneven rocks, slippery steps, narrow planks) but there was always plenty of help on hand, which made it perfectly manageable." See all these reviews: 9n in Kenya
