This secluded overlanders' favourite is great fun when there’s a crowd staying, with makuti (thatched-roof) lodgings peeking at the ocean from between the venerable baobab trees. The older rooms are extremely basic and in dire need of TLC – opt for one of the newer, tiled rooms with sea views. The on-site restaurant serves mainly seafood (mains KSh400 to KSh600).
Having a drink under thatch while stars spill over the sea is as perfect as moments come.
