Renta de alojamientos vacacionales con desayuno incluido en Manda Island

Lamu är verkligen inte en plats för alla. Vill du ha nöjesliv, shopping, upplysta gator, underhållning, service och gourmetkrogar ska du söka dig någon annan stans. Men letar du efter vacker arkitektur, spännande kultur, arbetsro, enkel och vällagad mat, idel vänlighet, salta bad, åsnor, båtar och natur är Lamu rätt. Och helt fantastiskt. Hos Gilles och hans syster bor man mitt den speciella staden i hus från 1700-talet, renoverat och försett med liten svalkande pool. Wi-Fi på taktersssen som är perfekt som arbetsrum eller för umgänge med skyddande tak för solen och utsikt över vattnet. Mgogo sköter om de dagliga bestyren - frukost samt lite av varje inklusive att mata de tre sköldpaddorna. Jag bodde ensam här i tre veckor, gick ut själv och åt på närbelägna Lamu House eller i Shela. Åkte till stränder och badade (man tar enklast en båt-taxi) och umgicks med vänner i närbelägna - och ner tusistiga - Shela. Var mycket produktiv och hann vila. Kommer tillbaka.

Samaki house was great place to immerse yourself in Lamu’s culture. The house itself boasts beautiful Swahili finishes along with a stunning view from the terrace. The location is within walking distance to several local restaurants, land marks and is located near the Main Street where all the local stores are. Moses, the house manager, was extremely helpful. Breakfast was an added bonus, and the provision of different breakfast options was very appreciated.

Our stay was wonderful. The house is beautifully renovated, with a pleasant rooftop. The host Gilles has been very responsive and proactive to organize our stay. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We used the services of a local cook who prepared for us delicious local food. I would definitively recommend this place to friends and wish I'll be able to come back.

Beautiful house well located in Lamu Town with kitchen and roof top terrace. Katana, who looks after the house and its guests, is a very nice guy and super helpful. He also prepared the breakfast, which I really enjoyed. Lovely place!

I instantly felt right at home. Thomas, Amani and all the staff were very accommodating and were responsive to anything I needed. The breakfast is amazing (make sure to try the banana pancakes and the vegetable scrambled eggs). They make almost everything in-house so you really feel like you're eating a home-cooked meal. The afternoon tea and snack was perfect while I needed to work remotely and the wifi worked very well in the common areas so I was able to get a lot of work done during my stay. The bed was comfy, the water was hot, the room was spotless and it felt like a home away from home. Thank you!

Great spot. Fantastic views. Fascinating walk through Shela to get there. We loved the terrace and the excellent breakfasts. Thank you so much!

Jua House, exudes calm and tranquility. Pale colours and clean spaces invite book reading, chilling and time to unplug. Amani and his team couldn’t be more helpful. Hot showers after a morning swim in the sea, Belgian waffle towels and a banquet style breakfast was our daily morning routine. After this we retreated to the top floor with views all around. The hush of the sea stirs in the background. Fresh baking bread wafts up from the bakery on the ground floor. Village life occurs around about, so you feel part of the Shela community, who are welcoming and helpful. It feels like a privilege to be here in Lamu. Thank you.

Super host, highly recommended, was on travel no take too much time to write review, but trust Arnold, you will never disappointed. Thank you Arnold!

My stay at Jambo House was absolutely amazing. I had booked 4 days but Lamu was so good I added an extra day at the end of my stay. Jambo house is located in Lamu town close to the waterfront. The rooms are clean and there is a rooftop terrace with wifi, sockets and a magnificent view of Lamu old town and a glimpse of the sea. Arnold the proprietor is very knowledgeable on activities you can do in Lamu and he helped me get alternatives you couldn't get at any other stay. Arnold himself is a traveler and shares a lot of insights and we often chatted for hours about travelling. Fred made delicious breakfast every morning and it was always served with 2 different fruits and fresh juice. Jambo is a great place for a budget traveler and I would recommend it for anyone who want's a cozy place and lots of information on Lamu and the surrounding islands. I'm definitely going back.

nous etions a Lamu town.bUn endroit sans pretention mais propre avec une vue mer agréable, petit déjeuner descent et staff très gentil.

Our 2-night stay at Amu house was a dream. We were specifically interested in staying in Lamu's Old Town in contrast with accommodations in the more touristy resort-studded area of Shela, and we were not disappointed! Between wandering the local alleys filled with locals of all ages and donkeys, relaxing at night on the roof with views of boats in the harbor, surrounded by the sounds of the Ramadan prayers, we felt totally immersed in the unique, rich Swahili culture of Lamu Island. And this is to say nothing of the beautiful, comfortable, spacious accommodations of Amu house! Check-in was a breeze: Mohammed Aweso from Amu house met us promptly at the airport, where he led us on a short boat ride and a 3 min walk to the house. After a quick tour of the house, Mohammed offered to arrange any number of excursions and activities for us throughout our stay. We took up on his offer for a walking tour of Old Town, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. We can't wait to return again!

I couldn't think of a better place to stay in Lamu! Located in a typical Lamu building, the location gave you easy access to everything, as well as meaningful interactions with the residents in the area. Room was as described and appeared even better than in the pictures. Just one thing to remind everyone is that there did not appear to be hot water for shower, but I was totally fine with it! Arnold was very helpful in giving out recommendations/ hidden gems and helped us to arrange a very authentic dhow evening trip! The breakfast french toast was to die for, but there are also gazillion a of other items on the menu to choose from. JamboHouse Lamu is THE place to stay at for any visit to Lamu and I 100 percent recommend Arnold & team to everyone!
