About this lodge

Two linked domes beneath a majestic baobab, set within the mangrove forest and raised above the water channels, with a large wooden terrace and a private outdoor jacuzzi.

Set within the mangrove forest and elevated above natural water channels, the Baobab Bubble Lodge offers one of the most immersive stays at The Rock & Sea. Its defining feature is its setting beneath a majestic baobab tree, whose presence gives the lodge a unique sense of place and deepens the connection with the surrounding landscape. A scenic wooden walkway through the mangroves builds the sense of arrival and seclusion, while the newly expanded private terrace offers generous outdoor living space, complete with a private outdoor jacuzzi. The dual bubble layout separates sleeping and living areas, so the two of you have room to spread out without ever leaving the forest.

A magical and unique place… luxury within nature.

Delicious, uncomplicated and culinary restaurant at a beautiful and remote spot of Watamu. The service was just excellent and the owners are probably the most helpful and caring people you’ll find.
