We can't fault Jua House. The place is stunning, the decor feels like its out of an interiors magazine. The staff is top-notch and Thomas is a rock star who I loved talking to. Breakfast is exceptional with freshly baked produce daily.

One of the nicest accommodations in Kenya i have been so far. Arnold is a great host who has a lot of tips for Lamu. The place is very clean and ideally located in Lamu Town.

Subira House was perfect as a sole traveller and for an extended stay (10 days). Kiki, Paul, Mohammed and all the staff made me feel really welcome and I met so many lovely people through the social dinners and breakfasts. Breakfast was amazing and the location was ideal in the middle of the old town. Have already recommended to friends and will stay here whenever I'm back in Lamu
