"Lovely traditional house with beautiful roof terrace"

8.0

This is a beautiful old house with a lovely roof terrace, and we enjoyed the private balcony outside our room. It’s a great place to explore Lamu Town from, and Mohamed was super helpful and friendly, as well as an informative guide. They provided a cot for us, which was useful, and pick-up from the airport worked very smoothly. The breakfasts are delicious. I appreciated the commitment to reducing single-use plastic, with filtered water provided in the rooms.

I probably wouldn’t recommend it for a stay with very small children - the design of the house means you have to keep a very tight eye on them at all times, which is a little stressful (there are some fairly low walls with a drop of several storeys into the courtyard, and our boys managed to break a couple of things too as soon as our backs were turned). In retrospect it would have been better for us to stay closer to the beach somewhere more designed for families - it’s quite a trek to get to the beach from the town. But for a single person or couple it’s great.
