While the house itself is architecturally interesting, beautifully furnished, and features a breezy, albeit a bit dusty, roof terrace with a great view, our experience at Samaki House was disappointing due to the owner's poor handling of a booking mixup on their part. The manager on site was friendly, and the room we had booked and eventually stayed in for 2 out of 3 nights was bright and airy, but we were initially given a dark, moldy room with a bathroom encrusted in rust and with cockroaches scuttling about that we hadn’t booked.

Situated 200 metres from Gallery Baraka and 200 metres from Lamu Fort, Beytul Habaib features free WiFi and units fitted with a kitchen, balcony and seating area.

My recent two-nights stay at Beytul Habaib was an absolute pleasure, creating unforgettable memories. The Apartment Suite was incredibly spacious and offered a fantastic view that added to the charm of my stay. The staff were exceptionally helpful, ensuring all my needs were met with a smile. The security was top-notch, making me feel safe and comfortable throughout my visit. One of the highlights was the unique wheezing sounds that gave the place a distinctive character. I thoroughly enjoyed the walk to the town center, where the locals were extremely friendly and welcoming. The management also arranged a town tour for me, rich in culture, as well as a sea tour, both of which were truly memorable experiences. I highly recommend Beytul Habaib to anyone visiting Lamu. It’s the perfect blend of comfort, culture, and hospitality.

Since Stopover is the first guesthouse you see when arriving at Shela's seafront from Lamu, my gut instinct was to see where else we could stay, but we could not have imagined a more perfect, relaxing (and very clean) place. Hamid, the manager of Stopover, made us feel very comfortable and safe, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our 2nd floor balcony overlooking the sandy approach to Shela and line of fishing boats and dhows was a bargain itself. Add the mosquito-netted traditional Arabic beds, eager-to-please staff, and delicious fresh fish meals and you have the perfect spot to experience the varied cultures of Lamu island. You can wander around Shela village, walk the beach, or go into nearby Lamu town (for which I highly recommend Ali as a guide to introduce you to Arabic culture through his eyes). It is SAFE, relaxing, romantic and so interesting to experience. The Stopover (Shela location) is the perfect base for your Lamu adventure.

Located in Lamu, less than 1 km from 18th Century Swahili House Museum, Tabassam Guest House features rooms with garden views and free WiFi.

Tabassam guest house is good value for the money for few days. Nothing fancy but has a good location, cheap price, and the manager Mohammed is a good guy ready to help you with anything you possibly need. Recommended

We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay!
