Peponi Hotel is located on the island of Lamu, where there is only one car and the narrow streets of the old town are very much as they were. After a 90 minute flight from Nairobi, you will be met at Manda Island and transported by boat for 15 mins to the hotel. Peponi Hotel is set on the edge of Shela Village, 2km from Lamu Town and at the start of a stunning 13km deserted beach.

The hotel has 24 spacious superior and standard sea view rooms with high Lamu style beds, ensuite bathrooms, mosquito nets ceiling fans and personal safes. The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere and is superbly run.
