Lamu County : locations de vacances au bord de l'eau

Great stay in a traditional Swahili home. Katana was a great caretaker and made us feel comfortable and welcome.

Vackert och enkelt boende som ger mer känsla för byn Shela än att bo på hotell. Vi blev väl omhändertagna av hushållerskan Elizabeth!

Paradise! The Shanti Beach House was an exceptional place to spend our last week in Kenya. The staff was excellent and answered any questions that we had about the island, traveling to Shela/Lamu or the food. We never did try any of the restaurants as Katana’s cooking was magnificent. Any little hint of what we might like to try for a meal and he made it happen! The accommodations were exactly as described, but the outdoor shower was the best part! Leave your cares behind and unwind at this beautiful beach front property. I highly recommend!!

Mary and the team at Mangrove house are fantastic. Amazing location with great swimming beach in front. Rooms are airy and neat with fans! The staff are lovely…and meals were amazing.

We had a wonderful stay in beautiful Shela! We especially enjoyed the swimming pool and the most magnificent garden! Claire is a very responsive host who provided tailored recommendations for our needs.

I spent 4 wonderful days in this wonderfully beautiful house, it was paradise! The house is very large and beautifully furnished, on the terrace there are beautiful lounges and deck chairs with a fantastic view of the sea and Shela in the background. The beach is very nice and quiet, the water is clear and you could swim well even at low tide. The staff was very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious. There is a boat with a captain available if you want to go on excursions. I can really recommend it, it's fantastic there, I loved and enjoyed every single moment! :-)

Lovely place in the hustle and bustle of old town Lamu. Jamhuri and Zeinab are super helpful and kind and Abu was a great tour guide who has a lot of passion for Lamu. Tarik has been wonderful from the start and flexible and considerate so if you’re looking for a place in town this is the spot!

I spent a week at Ras Firdaws with 6 of my friends to celebrate my 50th birthday, and I couldn’t have chosen a more perfect villa and location. The Villa is so spacious, all rooms have en suite bathrooms and there are plenty of balconies and various areas to relax and chill. There is a rooftop terrace, perfect for sundowners- we even had a live music performance there on the evening of my birthday! Being right on the water it was conveniently located for water taxi/Dhow pick ups and drop offs. And for taking a dip in the bay to cool down. The villa comes with a wonderful team of friendly staff who shopped, cooked, cleaned and took care of all our needs with a smile. The owners/hosts were extremely helpful in providing us with any assistance or information we needed. All in all we had the most blissful holiday and have all fallen in love with magical Lamu.
