Luxury beachfront holiday house, pool garden all sea views, Forodhani House Lamu
Lamu
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (7 reviews)
"Every bedroom, gathering space, and lounging area throughout the house (inside and out) is comfortably appointed and thoughtfully designed. The staff of the house are warm, inviting, and exceptionally professional. We loved the location along the water - close access for beach walks and shopping, yet plenty of quiet and privacy while still steps away from activity. Forodhani House is a very special place and our group was honored by our experience!"
