The hotel was great, hanging out by the pool was wonderful. Reminded me of the Road hotels in Morocco with the pool in the centre open with plants around. The meals were all very tasty and portion sizes just right. The view from our balcony was informative and immersive to watch. Our room was kept spotless and netting around bed much appreciated, that being said we had only one mosquito bite between the two of us. Many people came by on the tour to take photos of the pool, I think the hotel was part of the tour of Old Town. Shout out to Esther at the front desk, always friendly and took care of any needs we had. Wifi was excellent.

Lamu Old Town is a step back in time, and if you remember that you can forgive the small transgressions of one accustomed to modernity..

Beautiful hotel and I think the nicest is Lamu town. Beautiful pool in a central courtyard. Restaurant was relaxed and plentiful servings with included breakfast. Staff very friendly and I appreciated the glass water bottles, and sustainable use of reusable shampoos in glass bottles.

Noisy because it is on the main road. Construction was happening and started up loudly and continue through the day. Lots of flies at breakfast but the fans helped.

A remarkable property, full of history and character, and stylishly decorated. Our quiet room and private terrace at the back of the hotel overlooked charming rooftops, with dhows on the sea in the distance. The multiple pools, each set in its own secluded courtyard, are perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the island or the historic Old Town, and the waterside restaurant is totally delightful. Best of all, the team are so warm, welcoming and genuine - they really embody the spirit of Lamu and Kenya.

The decor and design, the hotel was stunning with beautiful decor all over. It had a beautiful courtyard that our room overlooked. Perfect location in rhetorical heart of lamu with a stunning view of the water. The staff were all so kind and helpful. The barman made the best cocktails! Food was great, breakfast was an incredible feast, recommend the Swahili breakfast.

The staff were really accommodating, couldn't do enough for you. Rooms were very authentic and clean. Food in the restaurant was very good. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay

My only reservation was that it was hot in the rooms as there is no air-conditioning but large fans in the rooms keep the room just about cool enough to sleep. We were there, however, in a very hot period.

An oasis-like escape from the hustle and bustle of Lamu Town right outside its doors. Lovely and helpful staff. Well-kept and well designed facilities. Multiple pools to choose from for a daily swim.

The mosquito nets and ceiling fans couldn’t protect us from restless sleep on uncomfortably hot nights.

Beautiful old building with a lot of character very close to the port in Lamu old town. Big and clean room with private veranda. Good restaurant and bar overlooking the ocean. Pleasant and helpful staff

Nothing

The hotel was charming and of historical interest. We thought it was beautifully decorated and we loved it

We liked it all. However the pool could have been a tad cleaner

The space, the welcoming and attention to details. The staff and the service.

Quite some mosquitoes

The pictures don't do it justice. It's absolutely beautiful
