Description

An Elegant Coastal family home overlooking the Indian Ocean

There are two houses on the property (Takaungu House and The Private House) - and although the houses are close, they are two separate entities and we hope you will respect the other houses privacy as much as they will respect yours ! Late nights and parties are fun as are boisterous children round the pool at siesta hour, but please do respect each others quiet times.

There are two individual access routes to the beach which means that the other house doesn't have to wander past you when you have just woken up.

The beach is generally a haven of peace and the "cool pool" at the southern end is a safe swimming/wallow area at any stage of the tide and is a perfect pool for aspiring toddler swimmers. The rag coral caves make for great pirate exploration! If you are exploring this end of the beach, do remember to wear rubber shoes. The water can be quite bumpy at high tide and there are currents. Spring tides are great fun to ride the waves, but are really only suitable for strong swimmers. We recommend children do not swim at spring tides.

Rooms Types

Wishes Cottage

Built as a separate but self contained Granny flat, this cottage comprises a big double bed and adjoining twin beds in the sitting room area which share a bathroom. The cottage has its own veranda and can easily be utilised as extra accommodation for either of the houses.

Tom's Room

This double room was built for a younger son and although the Lego has been replaced with Arab or Campaign furniture the ensuite bathroom is definitely built for younger people!

Double Room

This room was for many years the master room and is a comfortable double room with its ensuite bathroom. It shares its veranda with the room next door.
