Hugging the north-western tip of Manda Island, one of the many unspoilt, idyllic islands found in the Lamu Archipelago, is Manda Bay. It lies in calm waters on a long sandy protected beach. For centuries this has been a calling point for the Arab dhow traders, a haven where nature is allowed to take its course without the interference of the modern world, and this tranquil ambience permeates the resort.
There is something for everyone at Manda Bay. You can enjoy the comforts and the beautiful setting; relax next to the water or indulge in a massage. If you're feeling energetic there are water sports such as deep-sea fishing in search of the marlin and sailfish, windsurfing, water skiing and scuba diving, as well as cultural visits and dhow safaris.
Highlights
Activities
In designing Manda, it seems they thought of everything! Fishing trips, eating fresh sashimi, jetskiing, dhow trips and even astronomy lessons make this an extraordinary place to visit.
Rooms
Beachfront Room
Manda Bay's 12 beach cottages consist of 7 rooms set right on the seafront and 5 set slightly behind on higher ground. In keeping with the local landscape and tradition the cottages are constructed from, and decorated with, local materials.
All the spacious, breezy rooms have enormous flowing mosquito nets, ceiling fans within the nets, and en suite bathrooms with twin basins and a shower. The private verandas overlook the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean.
Facilities
The relaxed and airy lounge area and bar are perched right on the water’s edge and are a perfect place for lazy afternoons with a good book or tasty cocktail. Alternatively, laze around the lodge swimming pool while catching a tan.
Next to the swimming pool is a games room overlooking the sea, complete with a pool table, darts and table tennis. Retreat to the peaceful upstairs sitting area with its magical views over the bay. Visit the small boutique for something to remember Manda Bay by.
Dining
You can enjoy delicious meals and refreshing drinks in the central dining area, furnished with locally crafted Lamu furniture and overlooking the calming Indian Ocean.
Cuisine at Manda Bay has a marine flavour, featuring freshly caught tuna, mangrove crab and prawns. Meal times are designed to fit into your holiday and can take place in the casual dining area, or on the Ocean’s edge.
