Get your family together somewhere private and safe.
How long has it been since you’ve seen your mother? Or your brother? Your sister? No, I’m not saying see them through Skype or Zoom or WhatsApp, but see them in person, in front of you. Long time, right? Well, now that the lock-down is over, it’s time to start living with our loved ones again, to meet them, to share the pleasure of spending some time together.
Now is time to organize a “family reunion” to see each other in person after these weeks (months!) of lock-down. The time to take a break and return to live and share joys and emotions, especially with your loved ones and your family, and also, why not, take some well-deserved rest and vacation.
Sure, when you decide to hold a family reunion, you realize that it takes very little to bring a large number of people together. There are you, your husband and the children, then your sister with her family, your brother-in-law with the twins, and then your grandparents, and your husband’s aunt who is so nice … in an instant you’re with 15 or 16 names or even more!
This is why having a lot of space for you is really important, just as it is important that everyone has their own personal corner to rest and relax, while sharing with the family the moments of leisure, lunches, swimming in the pool, walks at low tide or excursions to Watamu and its surroundings.
Of course you can arrange this meeting at the home of one of the household members, but then .. who’s going to clean it up? Or you can rent a villa with space for everyone (will it be safe? will it be disinfected enough?), final cleaning is almost always included in the price, but .. do you really want your mum to cook for all those people? And the shopping, who’s going to do it?
No, there is no doubt, the best solution is definitely to rent an entire hotel (gasp!), with all the rooms reserved for your family, and with all the staff at your service for cleaning, cooking, for the restaurant … everything just for you, no guests other than those you have invited. Which is an improved guarantee for cleanliness and safety, isn’t it? Don’t worry, we Aldo & Silvia live inside the lodge, always available in case of need or for some particular need. Privacy, safety and security, all combined in the same place.
