Severin Sea Lodge

An introduction to Severin Sea Lodge

When it comes to being beach beautiful, Severin Sea Lodge is the cream of the hotel crop. We're talking soft-as-silk white sands. Bath-warm, sapphire seas. More palm trees than you can shake a coconut at. From the moment your clap eyes on these stunning surroundings, you'll truly know you've arrived in paradise. And it's all just footsteps from your window.

Whether you're staying in the main building or in one of the palm-thatched rondavels, your room's a peaceful oasis of effortless luxury. Cue Arabian-style beds draped with mosquito nets. Floors so polished you can see your face in them. And fabulous views that'll take your breath away. See the sun set over the Indian Ocean, watch monkeys playing in the gardens or glimpse the pool sparkling through the trees – whichever way your room faces, you get a vista to-die-for.

Speaking of the pool, it's time to slip into your swim suit and make a bee-line for those glittering turquoise waters. Use your towel to reserve a sunlounger in the shade of a swaying palm and dive straight in. After a few laps, hop out the water and onto your sun lounger where you can dry off the natural way – under the warm Kenyan sunshine.

If you fancy a change of scenery, head down to the beach bars. Wander down and pull up a swing at the aptly named Swing Bar. They do amazing things with fruit here, so order a fresh fruit cocktail - heavily laced with rum - and simply soak up the view.

When dinner time rolls around, you simply have to check out the 'Imani Dhow'. This authentic Arabic sailing boat's been turned into a fantastic a la carte restaurant. Sticking with the nautical theme, you can look forward to a top notch menu of freshly caught seafood and fine wines.

But the jewel in the Severin Sea Lodge crown is the staff. Friendly and welcoming, they'll go out of their way to make your stay special. So think hakuna matata because at Severin Sea Lodge there's no need to worry about the little details.
