Mind and body rejuvenation form part of our core here at Banana House. We offer various wellness opportunities for our guests and other visitors to Lamu to take part in. These include daily yoga classes, guided meditations and access to Natural Lamu’s Beauty Spa. It also helps that we set our entire property up to invite moments of quiet reflection and relaxation. For yoga classes there is no need to make a reservation.
