This is an outstanding place to stay at. All 3 rooms have ensuites, very convenient! There's also another toilet downstairs. Jonathan and Johnson were always helpful and cooked breakfast for us 3. It says sea view which is true enough, as the sea is a few feet away. However, there's a road in front before the sea and there are rocks rather than sand in front of this place. The beautiful Shela beach is about 15/20 mins walk away, as is the Old town, so not the best location. However, it's a very large airy property, and the wind keeps the heat down. Jonathan got vegetables and lovely mangoes delivered, also 20 litres of water in 2 containers, which I wouldn't want to carry myself! It could sleep about 10 people apart from 6 (3 couples in each bed) because there were lots of mattresses, especially on the top floor. Those mattresses wouldn't have mosquito nets which could be more difficult. Highly recomended.

Great place and great host. Ivor is very helpful and always responsive. We were traveling as a group of friends and he was communicating mainly with my friend, everything went very well. The place is amazing, peaceful pool in a beautiful garden, plenty of places to chill and hangout in the house. The house is walking distance from Lamu town and Shela, and it is in front of the sea. You can even see the sunrise from the terrace. Staff was helpful and nice. Only note, mattress in the bedrooms can use a renovation, they were not very comfortable. We will surely come back. Thank you Ivor.

Nous avons séjourné dans l’appartement à l’étage. C’etait comme une maison. La piscine est un vrai plus pour les enfants. Nous avons aussi dîner près de la piscine pour profiter du barbecue. Le personnel de la maison est très gentil et attentionné. Le chef Juma a très bien cuisiné pour nous. Boniface qui travaille dans un hotel a Lamu a su nous orienter sur les choses a faire et visiter. La maison est le long de corniche path ce qui permet d’accéder très facilement a Lamu ou Shela. L’appartement est extrêmement spacieux. Les terrasses donnant sur la mer sont plus qu’agréables et la vue est magnifique. Nous serions ravis de revenir.

Beautiful palace. The rotunda has a 60 foot or higher ceiling. Beyond anything I ever dreamed of experiencing. Jonathan our host was fantastic. Friendly and there 24 hours to help in every thing. Be sure to order breakfast. The rooms were spacious, with unique African carved antique furniture. Lots of authentic wood decor Each room had a balcony looking over the beach. Truly amazing place. It was a rare find that made our trip exactly the authentic Kenyan experience it should be. Airbnb should use this place in their promotions.
