Without a doubt this has got to be one of the most niche and well curated hidden gems in Watamu. No loud advertising for this place is needed. You just have to know. The plush and lavish rooms with great ocean views are well decorated and very welcoming. Even more welcoming is Silvia and her husband who operate the place and have a keen eye on every personal detail making you feel like you are on a private island. Top notch service that will cater to you and an extremely personable charm from everyone there. This was a magical experience and highly recommended!

We spent four wonderful nights here after a week on safari. The amazing owners Aldo and Silvia have created a stunning oasis of calm - welcoming, intimate, romantic and relaxing. The staff were all terrific, the vibe was perfect, the food a delight. We were lucky to have the tower room, with a glorious view over the Indian Ocean. The walk along the shallows at low tide is a must, as is a visit to the snake farm in Watamu. Can't recommended this place highly enough.

Lonno Lodge is certainly charming, most definitely serene. Two days of peace, utter comfort, perfect hospitality and personable, most excellent service from the staff and hosts. I cannot think of a better place to stay on the Kenyan coast.

The rooms are very spacious, spotlessly clean and everyone is super friendly. Very quiet with a nice sea view. If you love nature, this is the place to be. Highly recommended for a very private getaway. Nothing compares to Lonno. The architecture is superb too.

We had a lovely time. We came for a weekend getaway, and we were treated to a stellar visit. The staff was very attentive, and the location was excellent. The food was spectacular as well. We ended up taking most of our meals at the lodge. And the in house massages were a treat!

This hotel is a small paradise in Watamu. We were greeted by Silvia, the owner, who from the beginning gave us a warm welcome and treated us like family. The beautifully decorated room is spacious, with everything you need for a few days of rest and tranquility. The food is delicious and very healthy, mostly Italian style. Silvia and her husband Aldo, together with a qualified and attentive staff, have made this place a haven. They also provide their guests with the means to explore the beauty of the area.

Hotel a conduzione familiare, ed è questo il punto a favore della struttura: Silvia e Aldo metteno tutto il amore e si sente. Soggiorno a dir poco magnifico, immersi in un'oasi di relax. Resort curato in ogni dettaglio, cibo ottimo, la camera in cui abbiamo soggiornato era eccezionale (torre). Tutto il personale attento ad ogni nostra richiesta. È stato davvero difficile lasciare il Lonno Lodge, come lasciare una famiglia. Senza dubbio il miglior resort di Watamu.

Everything was simply perfect. The location is extremely cared and super clean. The food is excellent, mostly concentrated on Italian dishes. The rooms are big, very comfortable and clean. All necessary amenities were available. The swimming pool is really nice. The location of Lonno lodge is very relaxing, completely integrated in the nature, even if quite close to the village. The staff of the lodge is very kind. Silvia and Aldo are fantastic people, it was a pleasure to talk with them. We really enjoyed our stay at Lonno Lodge and we can’t wait to be back very soon.

It was a wonderful stay in Lonno lodge. Everything was perfect. Food was amazing. Ask to stay in the tower room… it seems to be in a fairy tale! From this village you have the possibility to walk into the ocean (in some hours of the day) and visit all the islands in front of. It has been our first time but we will came back surly. Aldo e Silvia make you feel at home
