What Our Past Clients Are Saying: "I will tell all my friends and family about your company. I was initially a little worried about dealing with a travel agency directly in Africa, but now I know that Africa Point is very professional and a reputable company. This trip was for my husband's 50th birthday, and we had a trip of a lifetime, thanks to Africa Point."

Kiwayu Safari Village - Details and Booking
Category:
5 Star Hotel
Location:
Lamu Island
Description:
Kiwayu safari village is located on the Kenya mainland in the most remote Dodori National Reserve some 30 miles north of Lamu Island, in a breathtakingly beautiful bay opposite Kiwayu Island. A 90-minute flight from Nairobi will land you on Kiwayu’s airstrip.
Kiwayu prides itself on being in tune with its pristine surroundings, and most of its big game fishing is restricted to tag-and-release sustainability
Accommodation:
-The 18 simple but spacious and beautifully decorated local-style cottages (bandas) spread out along the shoreline.
-Your home is a banda built in the local Bajuni tradition with palm thatched roof and matting floor with:
* Different sitting areas and tables - with many options for that all-important siesta.
* Super king-size bed surrounded by a turquoise mosquito net
* Comfortable dressing rooms
* Bathrooms with hot showers and flush toilets
* Shady and hammock-strung verandah offering privacy and a panoramic view over the bay.
-These bandas are designed to blend into the dunes - no concrete, no nails, nothing to jar the senses.
