Lamu House Hotel  

On Lamu’s seafront in the Old Town, a boutique hotel that feels like a cluster of restored Swahili townhouses. Steps from Lamu Fort (about a 5-minute walk) and roughly 2.5 miles (4 km) from the Takwa Ruins, with panoramic views of the dhow-filled channel. A family-friendly seafront base for exploring Lamu’s historic streets.

Made from two joined Swahili houses, the property has just 10 superior rooms—arched doorways, hand-carved wooden details, coral stone walls and breezy verandas. Rooms offer private furnished patios, refrigerators and ensuite showers with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Expect understated luxury, quiet inner courtyards and a personal concierge to shape your stay.

Three elegant pools plus a plunge pool and a swim-up bar, a rooftop terrace and lush garden, plus a full-service spa. Picnic and barbecue areas, complimentary daily reception and a roundtrip airport transfer (private boat). Wake up to sea-breeze mornings and unwind in real coastal style.

Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the property, a 24-hour front desk and concierge service. Multilingual staff and airport transfer support make arrivals smooth.

Moonrise Restaurant and an in-house waterfront restaurant serve local and international dishes, alongside a coffee shop and bar/lounge. Grab a complimentary continental breakfast daily (7–10 AM), enjoy the swim-up bar, or order room service during limited hours.
