Joseph was the most welcoming host and he helped me with everything I needed. He also arranged the boat from and to the airport which is cheaper than what I had been told by friends visiting so I recommend seeking to Joseph about any questions you have.

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.

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

Location is perfect, directly on seafront and accessible and walkable to everything. The interior is charming, clean, and comfortable. Air-conditioning and ceiling fan inside room great. Amazing view and sunrise from balcony and roof.
Travellers on a budget looking to experience a place like a local will enjoy homestays. This simple accommodation is in a private home, where the host also lives. All facilities are shared and in most cases breakfast is included.
Mellisa was very helpful, giving us local contacts to make our stay easier and more relaxing. The apartment was spacious and comfortable and had everything we needed. It was within walking distance to both the village and the beach. The locals were also very friendly and helpful.
Homely stay in Shela
Nice spaces on the roof to enjoy sunset or to relax
Freshly cooked breakfast (omelette + fruit)
Joseph was a great host and tried to help whenever I had questions
