100% local, 100% coastal, 100% dedicated.
Stephen - Manager / Cook
Stephen is a fantastic cook. With over 20 years experience on Kenya's coast, he is our point of contact with all our local vendors. Stephen knows all our local fishermen and picks out the best of the day's catch for us. We always give him advance warning if we are keen to enjoy a range of crustacea, as he finds it easier to source this in advance of our arrival, rather than the day before. His repertoire includes such delicacies as banana leaf barbequed whole fish with freshly made sauces and salsa, stuffed calamari Moro style, prawn curry, best fish and chips, fresh crab salad, garlic lobster.
Rajab
Rajab helps in the house with Stephen. He is also in charge of the swimming pool and takes great pride in ensuring that it is clean and leaf-free as much as possible throughout the day. He reports for duty quite early in the morning to clean the pool before we surface... but will be around most of the day.
Idi - Gardener
Idi works to ensure the garden looks glorious but not a complete jungle. This means daily pruning of our beautiful tropical plants, as well as trees and borders. We find Idi's garden heavenly.
Mbega Julo
Mbega Julo has been our nightwatchman for over 25 years. His experience in looking after the house is extensive. He comes on duty around 6:30pm, greet us, tidy up around the pool and outside. When we retire to bed, Mbega helps lock the house up, and stays on duty until 6:30am.
