Our Story

A Peaceful Retreat
Born from Passion

Founded in 2016 by Kadogo Nyawade, Kanyawegi Dala Resort was born from a deep love for Kenya and the desire to share its beauty with the world. Kadogo — who moved to Europe at 24 — never lost her connection to home. In 2009, she established the Kadowinja Foundation for community development, and later transformed her vision into this tranquil lakeside retreat.

Today the resort is more than accommodation — it is a living piece of Luo culture nestled in Kanyawegi Village, just 20 km from Kisumu, on the shores of magnificent Lake Victoria.
