Deuli House

Shela

Set within 100 metres of Shela Beach and 100 metres of Manda Beach in Shela, Deuli House provides accommodation with seating area. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony. The apartment features family rooms. My first impression of Deuli House's wonderfulness was Chuie, the manager, who picked us up at the airport and provided us with useful information on Lamu City and Shela. The Deuli House itself is a spectacular example of Swahili-Arabic architecture, with a riyad-style central fountain in a light well extending 3 stories high. Beautifully handcrafted wood furniture decorate the living area. An antique dhow sail billows from the top of the light well to the ground floor exaggerating the building's height. The garden is large, and green with HUGE giant oyster shells where the turtles shelter from the sun. In addition to the breathtaking architecture, Chef Chengo and his assistant Michael, act like your personal chef and waiter. Peilo (sp?) the household help, created a beautiful bed of flowers as a welcome and keeps the accommodations spotless. The meals were amazing, the rooms are spacious, and the service, impeccable. The mosque is nearby, so we were shocked at 5am for prayers. It is located close to Peponi Hotel and magnificent soft sandy beaches which unfortunately we didn't have enough time to walk around. Also missed sailing at sunset in a dhow boat because of inclement weather...bummed...need to return.

With a private bathroom, units at the apartment complex also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms will provide you with a terrace. Probably one of the most beautiful properties you could find on the island. For a creative professional, being at every corner of Swahili Dreams Apartments was a pure joy, every detail is so well curated. The private apartment was really spacious and had so much air while the common space tempts you to lounge there all day. Bravo to the team and the architect! It is a masterpiece we will remember for long.
