Welcome to Jahazi House! Step out of your front door directly onto one of the most beautiful beaches on the African coast. Jahazi House is a luxury beach villa located on tranquil Lamu Island. A wonderful house built in the traditional Swahili style, with all the opportunity for excitement and relaxation. In the morning, you can dip in the sea or cooling waters of the pool, breakfast will be waiting for you on the first floor terrace overlooking the beach. Fresh local fruit and any combination of breakfast you wish will have you ready for the day. In the afternoon swim with dolphins or sail to an exotic small island to picnic, swim and snorkel. Back at Jahazi House you can enjoy a refreshing drink on the roof terrace and barazza sofas facing west and the setting sun. The views from the barazza veranda are simply breath-taking. As the night draws on, your personal chef “Safari”, will ensure a delicious array of local cuisine will be waiting for you.
