"Perfect haven in old town Lamu"

10.0

The hotel is so nice and cute and beautiful- very authentic Lamu! It’s perfectly placed in old town. Loved the architecture and staff! So friendly !

Nothing really - they fixed a dirty mosquito net on our second day.

"A small hidden gem indeed"

8.0

I really loved Caro. For my type of personality someone who stays out of my space is a gem. Caro checked me in and did not bother me apart from the greetings. She was still available and very helpful when I needed anything. The staff are so warm and welcoming. I absolutely loved my suite it wad super spacious and the property was so serene. Breakfast was great with great fruits. The balcony joints are to die for. I liked this place. Ensure you book the sunset cruise this was absolutely lovely.

The pool needs regular cleaning. The strews for supper were rather too spiced even after request but the chapatis and vegez were amaizing. Ohh this has nothing to do with the house but if you are visiting Lamu just note the environment is not so clean due to the animals so carry a mask if you want to walk around and do the Lamu tour. Also lower your expectations as the old town has no beach and its typically the coastal culture so a lot of noise from the mosques as well as the donkeys.

"Exceptional"

10.0

Everything about Jannat House was awesome. The pool was so nice to cool off in the HOT Lamu climate. Honestly, I dont think we could have survived the heat without the pool. The service was amazing. We felt so welcomed. Like a home away from home. The chef provided an impromptu cooking class to show up how to cook the fish we caught. Carol provided good advice and has a reputation for being a good, honest, and caring manager. There are alot of areas to lounge in the shade. Its quiet but close to everything. When we come back to Lamu, this is the only place we will stay due to our warm, lovely experience. THANK YOU!!

Nothing. Everything was awesome and comfortable.
