Everybody who comes here gasps. The palm trees. The sandy beach. The speed boats and the sleek blue jet ski. It’s a charmed holiday destination, right by Lake Victoria and it goes against what they imagine South Nyanza, about Homa Bay, and about Mbita.
But Victoria Sands isn’t some mirage or imagination, it’s here with its green lawns, swimming pool and grass-thatched gazebos where you are most likely to find yourself nursing a drink, waiting for the sun to set over the lake.
