    It was a quaint hotel for a trip to Lamu. It was in a central setting on the maze of Lamu's charming alleyways. Our stay was really enjoyable, strongly recommend this venue to all.

    Nothing negative to say!

    My stay at this amazing place in Old Town was mind-blowing! The location was perfect for immersing myself in the true culture of the local people, and it was conveniently situated. The staff, especially Carol and Adan, were super friendly and took great care of us. But the highlight of my stay was when I asked to cook with the talented chef, Karisa. We had an unforgettable lunch together, truly embracing the sharing spirit of Lamu! The rooms were stunning, with leafy terraces overlooking a beautiful courtyard and pool. It felt like a hidden oasis amidst the charming streets of Lamu. Carol, our host, was brilliant and made sure everything was perfect, from the incredible breakfast to organizing trips. I didn't want to leave and can't wait to go back!

    The hotel is conveniently located close to the city center and not far from the waterfront. It is situated in Old Town, which allows guests to immerse themselves in the heart of the city. The rooms are clean and spacious, providing a comfortable stay for guests. The staff is friendly and accommodating, offering excellent service. The breakfast is tasty and the hotel has various facilities such as terraces and a swimming pool.

    One minor drawback is the presence of nearby stores selling Meera or Khat, which may be uncomfortable for some guests.

    I always return to my go-to place in Lamu. Staff graciously helped me with a late-night bottle of water, and I have no regrets. The amenities cover everything I need, from Wi-Fi to babysitting. Perfect for my business trips.

    We loved the clean, spacious rooms in the old Swahili house with its great terraces. The courtyard with the pool in the center and the peaceful atmosphere were perfect for relaxation. The free breakfast and excellent food from the restaurant were an added bonus. The location was great and the staff, especially Carol and Adan, took great care of us. The highlight of our stay was cooking with the chef, Karisa, and enjoying a lovely lunch together. The pick-up service from the airport was a great convenience. a fabulous stay!

    Felt safe and secure, no complaints at all.

    The value for money was great, and the room was simple but adequate for my needs. Located in the heart of Old Town, it was a quiet and peaceful spot. The staff, especially Ahmed, were very friendly and kind, making my stay even better.

    The breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety and options.

    The rooms at Jannat House were so cozy and comfortable, they made me feel right at home. I loved the seating area where I could just kick back and relax after a long day of exploring. And let's not forget about the private bathrooms - they were clean and had everything I needed. The towels provided were a nice touch too.

    Personally, I didn't enjoy the limited TV channels available. But hey, that's just me.
