I stayed here with a girlfriend after working in the hustle bustle of Nakuru, Kenya for just over a week, and left so relaxed it was hard to muster up the energy to get back on the plane to come back home to Perth. Lamu House was great, private, serene, great restaurant, staff and the ambience. Toby, Michael and the... More

Wonderful place to stay in Lamu, just on the sea front of Lamu, superb arabic style house with very friedly stuff! Excellent low season prices. 3 pools. Each room is different and nice. Best price/performance ratio on my Africa trip!

My friend and... More
