Kipungani Explorer – Lamu (Temporaly Closed)

Kipungani Explorer – A Hidden Paradise on Lamu Island (Temporarily Closed)

Nestled along the pristine shoreline of Lamu Island, Kipungani Explorer has been a tranquil retreat offering a perfect blend of rustic charm and barefoot luxury. This eco-friendly sanctuary has long been ideal for those seeking a peaceful escape amidst breathtaking natural beauty.

The property features spacious bandas, traditional grass-thatched cottages, each thoughtfully designed to harmonize with the surrounding environment. These bandas provide stunning views of the Indian Ocean, with interiors that reflect a blend of Swahili culture and contemporary comfort. Each comes with large beds, en-suite bathrooms, and open verandas, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the serene ambiance of this idyllic hideaway.

At Kipungani Explorer, guests have enjoyed a variety of activities, including dhow sailing, kayaking, deep-sea fishing, and simply unwinding on the soft sandy beaches. The on-site restaurant served fresh, locally sourced seafood and Swahili-inspired cuisine, creating a culinary experience as memorable as the setting itself.

Located away from the hustle and bustle yet within reach of Lamu Town’s cultural attractions, Kipungani Explorer has been a gateway to adventure and relaxation. Whether exploring mangrove-lined creeks or soaking up the sunset from a private veranda, this destination has provided a haven for extraordinary getaways.

Please note: Kipungani Explorer is currently temporarily closed. Stay tuned for updates on its reopening and the opportunity to once again experience this slice of paradise.
