The Lodge
Originally a seaside getaway where Ernest Hemingway stayed and fished, in 1986 Shimoni Reef Lodge opened and began its new life as a hotel with a few cottages and has organically grown over time while keeping its intimacy and size to maintain the same atmosphere as when Hemingway first visited in the 50s.
For over 40 years we have remained true to the ethos of the local culture and we are proud to be a part of the local community.
