"I reserved and paid back in October. When we arrived on Jan 11 -- we were told that our reservation was cancelled. In fact they were hosting a wedding - and cancelled our reservation without any warning. They proposed a disgusting replacement hotel (one-star backpacker hotel) which was 30€ per night rather than the 90€ per night we paid. We wasted 2 hours of limited time in beautiful Lamu. They refused to reimburse us and refused to send an email confirming that they cancelled a paid reservation...

"The location is great. But the property owner wasn't honoring expedia booking . Since it was late (5:30pm) , he allowed me to stay one night but next day I had to check out. Overpriced for the quality or upkeep of the lace. It is great for people looking for unconventional family owned traditional set up but a non for business travellers. Only one electrical point for charging in one room was another turndown "

Lamu House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast was excellent, especially the coffee and eggs. Staff very helpful and responsive. Beautiful room with views of the water. Swimming pool nice."

Peponi Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What an absolute gem. From the second you're greeted off the plane by the team who help you on the boat to the island until the moment you leave, everyone is super friendly including the dogs! Comfy giant beds, powerful showers, refreshing pool with lots of shady lounging spots, gorgeous vistas, delicious food, punchy cocktails and a long stretch of pristine beach. Great location for day trips or just unwinding on site. We will be back."

Kijani Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was a cool relaxed place. The food, both breakfast and dinner, were good and there was evn gluten free banana pancakes 🙂. The staff were great and helped organise trips. The pool was as refreshing in the midday heat. Would definitely recommend. "
