A melody
of the ocean breeze
On Lamu Island, off the Kenyan coast, you’ll find Kaskazi House, a modern-day Robinson Crusoe’s dream, where the comforts of civilization meet the allure of tropical paradise.
A lush garden envelops the house completely. Bougainvillea blooms, like vibrant, billowing clouds, sway in the breeze. The air is thick with smelling frangipani, and the fresh sea breeze rustles the carved palm leaves, whispering a soft melody.
Four towers, linked by terraces, surround a massive infinity pool, creating a sort of private courtyard. Around the pool, there are multiple chill-out zones. You can curl up with a book or some tunes on a suspended daybed, dine at a set table, or soak up the sun while gazing at the pool, which shimmers like a giant sapphire.
Dining at Kaskazi is an experience in itself. Local, hand-blown glass tableware and lavish, Eastern-inspired place settings. Your personal chef will whip up whatever your heart desires. Enjoy breakfast poolside, lunch in the cool shade of the trees on the beach, and dinner on the third-floor open terrace, gazing at the breathtaking tropical starlit sky. Kaskazi boasts five spacious bedrooms, each with a luxurious en-suite bathroom and a shaded terrace, plus two kids’ rooms with a large shared bathroom. The primary bedroom is an Eastern potentate’s fantasy: a bed the size of a football field, topped with a magnificent canopy; a sprawling terrace with ocean and pool views; and a cozy open-air bath.
Kaskazi is the perfect spot for a laid-back getaway. The “three B’s”—bar, billiards, and pool—are just the start. You’ll also find a personal masseuse and several cozy areas for board games, movie nights, or just kicking back for a good chat. And if you’re up for more action, there’s windsurfing, water-skiing, sailing, fishing, and kayaking. You can also take a trip to the nearby town of Lamu, Kenya’s oldest city, for sightseeing and shopping. The locals call the monsoon that blows in the summer months “Kaskazi.” It once carried sailing ships laden with treasures and exotic goods from Arabia and India to the Kenyan shores. Come to Kaskazi, and let the north wind bring new experiences and emotions into your life.
