Four Twenty South Slice of Heaven

From the moment we stepped into Dzumbe House, we knew we had picked the right place and were in for a treat! Relax and restore yourself...

Your own chef and housekeeper and the privacy of your own home set in tropical gardens running down to the powder white sands of the Indian Ocean on Africa's most beautiful beach.

KUALUKA
Kualuka, meaning ‘to welcome’ in the local Digo language, is an airy, spacious three-bedroom house a stone’s throw from the beach. There is a double bedroom and a twin bedroom with shared bathroom and shower and a second twin bedroom with bathroom, dressing room and its own access. The spacious veranda, where one tends to while away the hours in the fresh sea breeze has places for sitting, dining and snoozing.

Dzumbe, meaning ‘homestead’ in the local Digo language, sleeps 10 and boasts a large veranda and swimming pool, making it the perfect place for a family reunion or a group of friends. There are five bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and external terrace. There are two double and two twin rooms and an ensuite double annex with its own entrance. Designed in the Swahili style, with a high central hallway, the huge doorways draw in the sea breeze which circulates around the house providing natural air-conditioning. It is stylishly decorated with eclectic antiques and original art works by Kenyan artists.

We had a wonderful stay at Four Twenty. The location is fabulous, just dreamy really. Our cook was so great and made magic with our meals. I also really appreciated the complimentary airport lift and flexibility of early check-in and late check-out to accommodate of flight schedule.

Our Story

The 'new normal’ won't compromise the perfect holiday at Four Twenty South. It is an ideal destination for couples, families or groups with six houses generously distanced from one another in three acres of grounds. Guests have exclusive use of their own house and their meals are freshly cooked in their own kitchen by their own personal chef. It is also a great option for bringing together different generations; grandparents, teenagers and babies can all enjoy their own space and come together for meals. The houses sleep from 2 to 10 people.

We pride ourselves on giving an authentic, old-fashioned, totally relaxing Kenyan beach holiday experience with wi-fi being one of the few nods to the 21st century. The warm waters of the Indian Ocean are the original spa treatment. Good food is very important to us and our chefs are excellent, tailoring their dishes to your taste. All the housework and laundry are taken care of by the housekeeper leaving you free to concentrate on the serious business of having a wonderful holiday!

There are books, board games and playing cards. Snorkels, masks and fins are available and you can take an outrigger canoe to the reef. Watersports, skydiving, riding, golf, tennis and more are all within easy reach. Excursions nearby and trips to game parks such as Tsavo or the Masai Mara can be arranged. Facials, massage, yoga, workouts can all be done in your own house.
