Welcome to Casa Kik — a soulful retreat offering an unforgettable experience within one-bedroom apartments nestled deep within the winding alleys of Al-Mina, Tripoli. Cradled by history and softened by time, this intimate hideaway lies along a quiet pedestrian path, where weathered stone walls and wooden shutters whisper stories of the past. In this part of the city, days unfold slowly. The air carries the scent of the sea and the rhythm of footsteps over old stone, inviting you to settle into a gentler way of being.

Al-Mina, often called the "Old Port" of Tripoli, is a coastal gem where time moves gently and history lingers in every stone. Originally the ancient city of Tripoli before the inland expansion, Al-Mina is known for its narrow alleyways, sea-weathered architecture, and laid-back atmosphere. Unlike the bustling old souks of Tripoli proper, Al-Mina offers a calmer, more open rhythm—perfect for slow strolls, quiet coffee breaks, and sunset views. The neighborhood is dotted with Ottoman-era buildings, modest mosques, and aging mansions with wrought-iron balconies. Locals still gather in family-run cafés, fishermen mend their nets by the shore, and the scent of fresh kaak drifts from corner bakeries. Despite its modest size, Al-Mina is rich in character—where every street seems to carry the memory of stories once told. From here, you’re close to seaside corniches, small harbors, and scattered ruins, as well as just a short drive to the more bustling cultural core of Tripoli. Whether you're visiting for a quiet retreat or looking to explore Tripoli’s layered heritage at your own pace, Al-Mina offers a charming and authentic window into everyday coastal Lebanese life.
