The Charming Lonno Lodge Watamu | Watamu
The Charming Lonno Lodge Watamu is a boutique beachfront lodge with just nine unique rooms, perched on a coral stone cliff overlooking the Indian Ocean. Located on Kenya’s peaceful north coast, it offers privacy, authenticity, and timeless charm.
Each room is individually designed, naturally ventilated or air-conditioned, and flooded with light. Stone walls, high ceilings, and hand-picked details invite guests to slow down and reconnect with nature.
Guests enjoy homemade meals under the shade of the trees, relax in the hammam spa, or explore Watamu by electric tuk-tuk and bicycle. The lodge is fully solar-powered and draws its water from the sea — sustainability is a way of life here, not a slogan.
Perfect for couples, families or solo travellers looking for peace and inspiration, Lonno Lodge feels like a secret worth sharing — but only with those who understand the value of silence, space, and sincere hospitality.

Three unique ways to enjoy the same beauty.
Our Deluxe Rooms are stacked one above the other in the historic stone tower, each offering its own distinct charm.
On the ground floor, a shaded terrace opens onto the tropical garden, just a few steps from the sea. There’s space to sit, stretch out, and breathe. Privacy? Absolute. With only nine rooms in the entire lodge, peace and quiet are never in short supply.
On the first floor, the terrace is just as spacious, but open to the sky—perfect for sun lovers who enjoy basking in the light with a good book between dips in the pool.
On the second floor, the balcony is more intimate, but the view is the best of all: a changing canvas of light and sea throughout the day. Sunset happens right in front of your eyes—but you’ll have to earn it, with one extra flight of stairs in the old tower.
All rooms are equipped with air conditioning, crisp linens, and the kind of stillness only the sea can offer.
?? Designed for two, perfect even for one.

The highest room at Lonno Lodge, the Top Tower offers breathtaking sea views from your private rooftop terrace with a canopy bed.
A magical hideaway for two, this suite unfolds over multiple levels, ending in a panoramic turret perfect for sunset moments.
The climb is part of the experience — your reward: unmatched privacy, sea breeze, and time suspended above it all.

More than a suite — an experience reserved for those who seek the extraordinary.
Designed across two spacious levels, the Signature Suite is where elegance meets intimacy. From your private sea-view terrace, watch the sun melt into the Indian Ocean, drink in hand, heart at peace.
Inside, every detail speaks of refinement: a serene bedroom with flowing linens, a living area with curated decor and artisan touches, and both floors cooled with whisper-silent air conditioning.
Ideal for couples, honeymooners, or families who want nothing but the best — with space for children, but made for dreamers.
Come for the view, stay for the feeling.

On the ground floor, the second covered veranda, connected to the living room, provides even more space to relax outdoors as a family.

Designed for families who want space to relax and reconnect, the Grand Suite is our largest — and one of our most charming.
Set over two generous levels, it features a spacious living room on the ground floor and a bright master bedroom upstairs, both naturally cooled by the ocean breeze and high ceilings.
From the private veranda, enjoy lush garden views, birdsong in the morning, and the quiet magic of Watamu evenings.
There’s no air conditioning here — nature takes care of that.

Sea view, two floors. Intimate, cozy, one of a kind.
The Junior Suite is the smallest of our suites — but only in name. Like all our suites, it’s spread over two levels: a living area downstairs, and the bedroom with bathroom upstairs.
Though compact, it offers all the space and charm a couple could wish for — and as you'll see in the photos, it has its own special personality.
If needed, the sofa in the living room can be turned into a bed for a child.
What makes it truly special is its private terrace, small and cozy, with a little table just right for enjoying a coffee or a drink while watching the sea.
