A Perfect Island Escape - The Majlis Resorts

Kenya Manda Island

In the Indian Ocean, off the north coast of Kenya, within the Lamu Archipelego, is the picturesque Manda Island, separated from the mainland by the narrow Mkanda channel. Having been abandoned for decades due to water scarcity, the area was only recently redeveloped to house luxury beachfront resorts, attracting tourists seeking nature and relaxation. For the cultural aficionados, lamu offers the oldest living Swahili town in Kenya. Dating back to the 12th century the Old Town is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The mixture of Swahili, Arabic and Indian Cultures is deeply felt in Lamu, which wasonce part of trade routes and flourished as amaritime hub.
