The Home

Welcome to Shuma! This large 2 acre home is a place of beauty, tranquility and pure connection with nature… This is bare foot living at its best! This house has been built with organic, sustainable materials and has its own private access to one of the most beautiful beaches on the Kenya Coast, the famous Protected Marine Park of Watamu. The house is completely secluded and surrounded by a verdant natural garden full of flowers and birds… a perfect place to come and escape the pressures of modern day living, a place to come and forget all your troubles, find healing, reconnect with your soul and get in touch with your body. Every effort has been made to provide a space where you can totally relax and re- charge your batteries, be cooked for by our amazing and talented chef and pampered with massages and treatments by our wonderful staff.

A very large and beautiful Sacred Space has been built in the heart of the garden for all types of Exercise and Wellness classes, and also Art courses. 

The Retreat

We invite you to our Yoga retreats which incorporate 5 days of Yoga , 3 days out on safari and 2 days of travel. In total a 10 day trip to Kenya!

For those who do not wish to do the safari they can relax and enjoy Shuma as a holiday home with continued Yoga classes for the extra 3 days, and enjoy even more pampering by our staff! Since this is a large private residence and not a hotel we may have to ask you to share a room. If you are booking individually and not as a couple please state very clearly if you prefer not to share. All bedrooms have their own suite bathroom.

Included in the price:

Pick up from the airport 2 daily Yoga classes- one in the morning, one in the evening.
The evening class will incorporate some more meditation and breath work.
One Early morning float . This is a once in a lifetime experience where you go to the creek and ´float`out on the quickening of the tides caused by the waxing or waning moon – the creek has amazonian looking channels which lead out through the mangroves to the open ocean where you are pulled by the current around onto a deserted beach.
A professional and qualified team will be looking after you and guiding you and you will have life vests, but it is perfectly safe. There on the beach our staff will be waiting with a delicious picnic breakfast all laid out. Everybody says it is one of those never to be forgotten, once in a lifetime experiences!
One Dolphin Watching expedition.
One Snorkeling Expedition.
3 full body one hour massage sessions.
Visits to see Turtles Laying Eggs or Hatching on the Beach ( seasonal).
Lunch at Papa Remo Restaurant to see the amazing 7 islands beach and float around in its shallow lagoons.
The Sunset cruise dinner party on a Kenya Dhow boat on the creek to close the first part of the retreat.
