Jannat House, hotel in Shela

Offering an outdoor pool, garden and a restaurant, Jannat House is located in Lamu Old Town. It is situated a short walk away from the Waterfront and the Main Road. Free Wi-Fi access is available.

The residence was quite okay and matches the photos provided. The staff were very friendly and helpful including activities to do around Lamu. Although small, the pool was a nice addition for the hot afternoons inside the premises.

Royal House Shela, hotel in Shela

Situated within 200 metres of Manda Beach and 200 metres of Mnarani House, Royal House Shela features rooms in Lamu. This 5-star hotel offers room service and free WiFi. The hotel has family rooms.

Fantastic stay at Royal House, primarily thanks to the excellent service and friendliness of Baya and Omar who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The location is great - both very central in Shela (1 min to the beach) and very quiet. The hotel is clean and comfortable, though shows some signs of wear and tear. We hope the new owners will continue to ensure its upkeep. Highly recommend.

    Great place with no other than pedestrians and donkeys.

    Great place with no other than pedestrians and donkeys. Lovely locals and not to many visitors. A day spended out on sea, for fishing and snorkeling ia a must, fishermans are just the Kings!! Seafood cooked at your place is a must, fishes, crabs, vegetables, all with great spices.
