The Location
Kilifi, a secret gem of the east coast of Kenya, sits quietly on the shores of the Indian ocean.
She’s slowly revealing herself to the world, as travellers from near and far come to bathe in her unspoilt beauty.
The tropical climate makes this the perfect getaway for your wellness retreat, an incubator to nourish and nurture the new, or for the more adventurous deep sea fishing, kite surfing, sailing, diving, snorkelling.
It’s an African paradise for those ready for a glimpse into history, nurtured by natures beauty.
Sustainability
We are committed to minimising our environmental impact and fostering eco-friendly initiatives. One of our key sustainability efforts involves harnessing solar energy for hot water systems, reducing our reliance on conventional energy sources. Our commitment extends to water conservation, with rainwater tanks in place to harvest and repurpose rainwater for our gardens, and recycled water systems ensuring responsible water usage. To minimize waste, we've introduced composting systems throughout our facilities, turning organic waste into nutrient-rich compost and promoting soil health. By integrating these initiatives into our operations, we aim to provide a comfortable and environmentally conscious experience for our guests, embodying the principles of responsible tourism.
Supporting Local Business
Kilifi is home to many great carpenters, basket weavers, sculptures, artists and seamstresses and as such, a number of our furnishings are crafted by our local Kilifi community.
