Kiwayu Safari Village
Nestled amongst the mainland dunes, about 30 miles north of Lamu Island the oasis of Kiwayu Safari Village overlooks a sheltered lagoon to the north of Kiwayu Island . Boasting total seclusion, visited only by fishermen and dhows, accommodation consists of thatched bandas/cottages which blend into the dunes. Cuisine centers around fresh catches of fish, excellent seafood. The theme of Kiwayu Safari Village is informality. Each hammock-strung verandah offers total privacy and panoramic views over the lagoon. The dining-room and bar are also built in the local Bajuni tradition with palm-thatched roofs and woven matting floors. Each of the 18 bandas is within easy reach of the water's edge, the boats and the bar.
