The space
It is a home away from home, located at the Kilifi Creek at only a few meters to one of the several sandy cove beaches, surrounded by mangrove forest the home of all kind of lives (e.g. birds, fishes, crabs, lobsters, prawns, oysters, etc.)

This house was built with natural materials to respect and fit in the environment, with no disturbance to the wildlife. This is the right place for nature lovers and bird watching.

You are actively involved in ecological, responsible and sustainable development tourism.
