Funzi Keys Hotel Lodge, voted for the second time as one of the top 101 hotels in the World by Conde Nast Publishers and voted one of the Top Six private Island Resorts in the World by Conde Nast Traveler is tucked away on an unspoilt island in the Indian Ocean, yet only 15 minutes flying time from Mombasa, The Funzi Keys´ Lodge unique appeal is its luxurious seclusion and beautiful natural scenery. Surrounded by water and superbly located on a west-facing beach with glorious views of the African sunset, this remote and exclusive hideaway is the perfect place to escape from the outside world in style. Funzi Keys Hotel looks out over the ocean and offers dramatic views combined with a high degree of comfort, unparalleled on the east coast: Omani architecture, Lamu coral ceilings, arid mangrove poles and intricate plaster carvings.
Life at The Funzi Keys hotel is relaxed and many guests do little more than unwind on the wooden deck of the free-form pool with a drink while watching the local fishing dhows sail by. But for more energetic guests it is possible to enjoy sailing, creek fishing, snorkeling, windsurfing and canoeing or perhaps take a boat trip up the Ramisi River or Funzi Creek for an unforgettable glimpse of kingfishers, crocodiles and even dolphins! The hotel is an excellent base for deep-sea fishing and scuba diving in the Pemba Channel, which can be arranged and paid for locally.
