The location is fantastic—just a short walk from great restaurants and charming coffee shops. Getting into Lamu town was also hassle-free. The accommodation itself is immaculate—spotlessly clean and well-maintained, with breathtaking views. The terrace with Swahili-style couches was a perfect spot to unwind, soak in the scenery, and enjoy the sea breeze. We also felt safe and at ease throughout our stay. Breakfast was delicious with fresh juices and fruits that added a refreshing touch to our mornings. Abdalla, the owner, was quite helpful and communicative. He provided us with useful recommendations, arranged our boat transfers to and from Manda Airport, and even booked a stunning sunset dhow cruise. Emmanuel, who manages the place, was always ready to assist whenever needed, ensuring our stay was smooth and comfortable.

Thank you Sai Shanti. We will be back!

Staying at Beytul Habaib was a great cultural experience. The mix of modern and traditional decor was beautiful, and David's service was excellent. The two-bedroom apartment was perfect for our family. We enjoyed cooking and felt right at home. The views were amazing, with stunning scenes of the island and ocean from every angle. Being close to the beach was a big plus, and my children loved playing there.
