Likely The Best Hotel in Watamu

It felt like coming home, albeit to a home much more elegant and pampering than our daily life. Food was delicious, rooms stylish clean and comfortable, and the setting is spectacular. We spent hours exploring tidal pools from the hotel and swimming in the gorgeous pool. There are countless activities you can undertake in Watamu and they are in close range. With everything outdoors, a limited number of rooms and strong COVID protocols, we felt very safe. We can't wait to get back. read less

We recommend the top tower room which has it's own beautiful, private rooftop terrace with a stunning view! The beautiful, lush grounds and direct access to the sea also make it very special.

Silvia, Aldo, their team (and their lovely, very well behaved dogs) were charming, and did everything they could to make our stay special. The meals were large and delicious, using great local produce - lots of delicious seafood with Italian and Swahili influences. Great wines, cocktails and more...

We can't wait to go back 🙂 More read less

Food was very well catered being vegetarians with plenty of options and definitely one of the best dining in Kenya. With the direct sea access, we also ventured out on the reef with the reef shoes provided by Lonno...it was the best walks searching for marine life. The massages were soo relaxing after the long reef walks.

Lonno is definitely a gem on the Kenyan Coast not to be missed!!

Thankyou Silvia and Aldo for the superb hospitality!! Can't wait to be back read less

Well positioned to receive the max of the indian ocean breeze, the warmth of the tropical sun and the direct views of the horizons.
We especially enjoyed the variety and top quality of the cuisine. The gluten free dishes were excellent and prepared to great attention to balance local ingredients and international flavour. read less

The owners, Aldo and Silvia and their many dogs were very welcoming. The hotel itself is beautiful with great views of the ocean and direct access to the beach.

We had the top tower room with the rooftop Lamu bed which had an amazing view of the ocean. The room was luxurious and very comfortable, meals were excellent and staff were friendly. The architecture of the lodge itself is one of a kind.

If you are looking for ultimate privacy and peace with absolute comfort this is the place.

We look forward to coming back soon.
