ザ チャーミング ロノ ロッジ

This lodge was just perfect for my solo weekend. The team are so helpful and friendly and everything was organised so well. The pool is a dream as well as the seating areas and so much thought has been put into the design.

Lonno is a wonderful place to enjoy a much deserved holiday. The owners and staff go out of their way to make you feel you need to extend your stay! A charming place indeed!

It was the most comfortable location. The views are awesome and the location is super quiet. The hosts are just amazing and you feel like you are at home.

The Charming Lonno Lodge is one of the best places I have ever stayed. It’s so peaceful and laid back, but with incredible service from Sylvie and Aldo and their amazing staff. It is very comfortable in the rooms too.

A wonderful small hotel outside the main village. Great pool and excellent food. If you do not like big modern hotels, this is for you. Silvia and her husband are stars.

Excellent customer service. Sylvia was very kind and accommodating during our entire stay!

Our stay and the service was very great.

An exclusive enclave from local poverty, Lonno is the ideal retreat from reality. Spotless and impeccably run by a husband and wife team, it boasts superb service and exquisite food (although perhaps a bit too much of the latter as felt our waistlines expand daily!). We were there at the very end of the season and almost had the hotel to ourselves. The surroundings are gorgeous and the architecture of the hotel is reminiscent of the intricate network of an ancient Arabic village. Our room was a large, airy duplex suite which would have benefited from air conditioning, given the extreme heat and humidity. Having said this though, it was liberating to sleep with all the doors and windows wide open. Mosquitoes were non-existent. The swimming pool was beautiful and there was easy access to the tidal flats in front of the hotel at low tide. The children loved exploring this area and discovering coral, crabs and other sea creatures. The hotel provided suitable footwear for such excursions, which was invaluable. While management was readily available when we needed them, they were not proactive in terms of promoting local activities or excursions. We felt we had to tease information out of them, but once this was done, their guidance proved very reliable. For a fee, the hotel offered air-conditioned transport to local airports and attractions. Unusually, there was not one single sign of written information or communication anywhere in the entire hotel complex. Coming from the over-controlling UK environment, we were surprised to find no paperwork in the room, fire information, or even a sign to the bar! In a way this was refreshing and we felt our hosts were overly keen not to state the obvious. We had slight security concerns before our trip, but once there, could not have felt safer. Not a single pirate! Our stay was very comfortable, utterly delicious, and our every need was provided for. Silvia and Aldo run a very tight ship and are to be commended for their service and style. We would not hesitate to recommend Lonno Lodge to friends. Asante sana Lonno Lodge!

Great place to stay. Expensive, but if money is not a problem then I highly recommed staying here. Small and personal. The owners are hands on. The staff are friendly and attentive. The rooms are nice. The food is outstanding. Is away from the main part of Watamu so it is secluded and quiet. If you so desire, you can walk to the main shops along the beach. Great view. A+

This is a fantastic hotel, designed by the Italian owners and closely watched over by them. The staff also are very polite and helpful. The rooms are actually like small houses with kitchen and large fridge where you are only charge normal prices for the drinks used. Some people might think that it is too quiet, but the service and facilities are excellent.

Had a lovely time at Lonno Lodge! Mkt trevligt par som driver hotellet och som gör vistelsen mer än behaglig. Suveränt poolområde och relaxavdelning. Genomtänkta och strukturerade rum. Behaglig atmosfär!

Lonno Lodge is a beautiful place where it is possible to spend time just relaxing by the pool in front of the ocean, venture out for beach and water activities or visit the nearby town and other interesting sites in the area. The staff was friendly and helpful while the owners interacted with the guests and offered advice on how to get around and on what to do in the area. They also organized trips by jeep and boat to local places of interest. The overall feeling is that of visiting friends.
