Lawford, a unique experience

Arriving at Lawford is already a unique experience in itself.... The typical roof of the place, which overlooks the reception which leads to the lush garden, is a work of art. The villas and rooms are located in the green so you never feel like a crowded hotel. The restaurant cuisine, with an Italian twist, really deserves it. The two large pools in the green are very pleasant (and always clean).
I stayed in a villa: private pool and stylish Kenyan style furniture for a super holiday!

The colonial charm of lawford in Malindi

The place is charming, different from other hotels in Malindi: the garden is large and lush and slopes down to the sea with two swimming pools. The villas are camouflaged in the greenery and treated in every detail with a simple but local style furniture and private pool. The food is excellent, local but with an Italian twist, to try!
The staff is friendly, sometimes a bit slow, but always helpful. From there you can easily walk around to visit Malindi.

A choice for a special stay a step away from the ocean

Priceless location just a step away from the ocean where it is wonderful to walk, letting your eyes run to the horizon... Location very nice and welcoming. Spacious rooms, tastefully furnished and with an excellent view of a well-kept garden. Friendly and helpful staff. Delicious breakfast (don't miss the passion fruit jam). At lunch we had a really tasty lobster!
A corner of peace to relax by one of the two swimming pools...

Great hotel in Malindi with direct access to the beach ibclose to the beach

Large and nicely decorated rooms. The garden is beautiful with direct access to the long beach. The staff in the restaurant was very friendly and the food excellent. We had grilled lobster and finished our meal with mango ice cream.
I will surely come back!

Very good location
