Ebbtide House
Live from Ilashe

Let the tide set the pace.

Fourteen rooms on a quiet stretch of Ilashe beach, twenty-five minutes by boat from Victoria Island. No traffic, no deadlines, just the sea keeping time.

Tideon Ilashe today

Lagos is brilliant. It is also loud. Ebbtide is where you come to hear yourself again.

We are a small house on a long beach, just past the lighthouse on the Ilashe side of the barrier island. Our boat leaves a quiet jetty in Victoria Island; by the time the city skyline shrinks behind you, your shoulders have dropped an inch.

There is no road here. There is a kitchen that cooks what the fishermen bring in, hammocks strung between coconut palms, and a staff of twenty-two who remember how you take your tea.

Door-to-sand transferOur own boat, life jackets for every seat, a captain who's done this run for eleven years.
Power that just worksSolar all day, a hushed generator at night. The AC never blinks.
Barefoot by designSand paths, linen sheets, no dress code. Shoes optional after 4pm.
Wi-Fi if you need itStarlink in every room, and a hammock where the signal "mysteriously" fades.
One day at Ebbtide

From first light to the last ember.

Scroll through a Saturday. Nothing on this list is compulsory; most guests do about half of it and nap through the rest.

Stay by mood

What kind of slow are you after?

The kitchen

Cooked by the sea, for people who came hungry.

Chef Morenike buys from the Ilashe fishermen at 7am and writes the lunch board at 9. Breakfast is included with every room; everything else goes on your tab and settles at checkout.

Allergies, halal, vegetarian, no pepper for the little ones: tell us on WhatsApp before you arrive and it's handled.
Getting there

The commute is the first drink.

Our boat leaves the Ebbtide jetty on Ozumba Mbadiwe, Victoria Island. Park with our attendant (free, 24h guarded), hand over your bags, and step aboard. Pick your crossing below; it's added to your booking.
