There is no better place to wind down than untouched Shela Beach, on the historic island of Lamu

A NEW VARIATION ON THE ULTIMATE HOLIDAY

After the excitement of a Kenyan safari, there is no better place to wind down than untouched Shela Beach, on the historic island of Lamu.

Kenya offers you a new variation on the ultimate holiday; sun, sand, sea and – now –safari. And there is no better place to indulge in the first three ingredients than on Lamu Island. Even better, if you make Peponi Hotel part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Kenya you’ll be staying beside a 12 km long beach of fine, virtually untrodden sand running along the side of the Indian Ocean. You’ll be able to bathe in the warm sea, take long sunset and sunrise strolls at the water’s edge, relax in supreme comfort in a swinging day bed, indulge your taste for fresh seafood, sail aboard a traditional dhow…

Not to mention visit the cool, ancient streets of Lamu Town, with its coral walls and fascinating history.
