And it is in the North Cost of this wonder that there is my house, in the residential part of Watamu, near to other amazing places such as Malindi and Lamu and, a little bit more in the South, Mombasa. The house is furnished according to local folklore , woodcarving and traditional handcrafting, well attended and has all comforts. Near the main house there is a bungalow composed of one bedroom, a small bathroom with shower and a kitchen-side.

You can also take part to deep-sea fishing games organized by some of the hotels near the house. The villa is set into a wide garden, surrounded by different coloured bouganvillas and by tropical flora. You can rest in their shade on the typical beds or on a large gazebo.
