This
is an invitation to buy your own African hut on the shore of Lake Victoria in
south-western Kenya. We prefer to call it the west coast of Kenya, the east
coast being the coast along the Indian Ocean.
Your hut will be part of the Lake Victoria Safari Village.
You
can read about the existing facilities and view some photographs of Lake
Victoria Safari Village on this page.
On
the same page
you will also find links to a lot of information about the area and its attractions as
well as things to see and do while you are here.
The project
was started in August 1998 and the Village consists of the following facilities
to day:
o
2 no.

2 self-contained guest rooms, both rooms with private veranda
-
1 no. accommodation hut (diameter 6 m) containing one self-contained double room with private veranda

o Bar near the beach.
In stage II
(from 2002 onwards) the following buildings will be added:

private veranda overlooking the lake.
There is
spacious room for at least 15 huts. Electricity, sewage and water pipes have

of these huts are financed by cost-sharing contracts) All huts will be situated
within a distance of 60 – 80 m from the beach.
