FORODHANI HOUSE
Private beachfront house at the beginning of Shela Beach, facing the channel and Manda Island.
A PLACE IN YOUR JOURNEY
A DIFFERENT OUTLOOK.
A PLACE TO PAUSE.
Forodhani House stands directly on Shela Beach, with terraces looking across the channel towards Manda Island.
Five ensuite bedrooms are joined by several lounges, dining areas and terraces, allowing a group to gather or find a quieter corner. The operator describes accommodation for ten to thirteen guests, but the extra-person arrangements and bed allocation should be agreed explicitly.
A cook and house team handle meals and day-to-day service. Nobu would consider Forodhani for travellers who want the character of a Swahili beach house with practical support on site.
