A very beautiful seaside hotel, run by an old Italian couple. It feels great to hike to the beach at low tide.

È stato un soggiorno meraviglioso in un luogo dove nessun dettaglio è lasciato al caso: siamo arrivati da clienti e ce ne siamo andati da amici. I proprietari, Silvia e Aldo, ci hanno accolti, coccolati, consigliati e fatti sentire a casa in un luogo incantato dove tutto è scandito dal suono dell'oceano. Le camere sono ampie, la distribuzione degli spazi è geniale e tutto è sempre pulitissimo. Il ristorante è bellissimo e caratteristico, la cucina sublime. La zona piscina è da sogno, come quelle delle cartoline: si può stare sulle sdraio o in acqua osservando i colori dell'oceano. È un ambiente molto intimo in generale, che permette di creare un contatto profondo con la natura che Watamu offre e di staccare completamente la spina dal lavoro e dalla routine quotidiana. Non solo lo consiglio, ma spero vivamente di riuscire a tornarci!

Abbiamo soggiornato al Lonno Lodge per qualche giorno e possiamo dire senza esitazione che è uno di quei luoghi che lasciano davvero il segno. La struttura è immersa nella natura, in posizione tranquilla e con una vista sull’oceano semplicemente mozzafiato. Ogni angolo è curato con amore, dalle camere ampie e confortevoli al giardino tropicale, dalla piscina di acqua salata alla cucina sorprendente, dove ogni piatto riflette una perfetta armonia tra sapori locali e mediterranei. Silvia e Aldo non sono semplicemente i proprietari, ma l’anima del lodge: presenti, attenti, discreti. È raro trovare un’accoglienza così autentica, dove ti senti davvero a casa – o forse meglio. Che si tratti di organizzare una cena sotto le stelle, una passeggiata con la bassa marea verso le Seven Islands, o un’escursione in dhow o safari nell’entroterra, tutto è pensato per farti vivere l’esperienza più rilassante e genuina possibile. Un’ultima nota speciale va al team, sempre sorridente e premuroso, e ai tre adorabili cani che completano l’atmosfera familiare e serena del lodge. Un soggiorno così merita ben più di 5 stelle. È un’esperienza intima, esclusiva, e profondamente rigenerante. Torneremo sicuramente.

A fabulous boutique hotel with everything you need to relax, unwind and recuperate. I love going to Lonno, this is my 4th visit, and it just gets better every time. Sylvia and Aldo are excellent hosts with great advice about excursions, dining out, shopping and everything in between. I'm already planning my next visit.

Ich habe mit meiner Frau 7 Nächte in der Lonno Lodge verbracht, wir haben uns dabei grossartig umsorgt gefühlt. Die Anlage ist wunderschön, perfekt gepflegt und liebevoll gestaltet. Das Zimmer im Turm bietet eine tolle Aussicht über das Meer und ist sehr grosszügig. Die Einrichtung ist sehr authentisch. Wir haben uns vom sehr freundlichen und aufmerksamen Personal sehr gut umsorgt gefühlt. Wir haben die Ausflüge in die Umgebung (Arabuko Sokoke Wald, Gede Ruinen und Mida Creek) sehr genossen. Die Riff-Spaziergänge während der Ebbe boten grossartige Einblicke in die wunderschöne Landschaft und boten viele Möglichkeiten zur Tierbeobachtung. Die Riffschuhe zum Ausleihen sind dazu perfekt geeignet. Das Essen war vorzüglich, reichhaltig, ein Genuss. Silvia und Aldo haben uns perfekt beraten, wir fühlten uns richtig wohl. Sie haben sich eine Oase geschaffen, welche es verdient besucht zu werden.

We enjoyed a whole week of relaxation in the comfort of Lonno Lodge. Spacious accommodation in traditional style with comfortable beds, good hot showers, and a lovely private terrace. The pool is large and we made the most of it, in between relaxing on the poolside loungers. All the people that we met working there were very friendly and determined to please. Good cooked breakfasts, a full lunch or bar snacks and a different set menu each evening added to our enjoyment. The owners, Sylvia and Aldo, are excellent hosts.
