The place is amazing,the stuff very helpful. I wish i could come back❣

Clean, modern, breezy rooms, small boutique hotel, good breakfast, friendly staff

The staff was SUPER helpful. Amani made sure everything was done in a timely and effective manner - be it our meals, transport or excursions. The breakfast was amazing. The spread was lavish and everything tasted delicious. The rooms were very quaint and comfy. The property overall was quite clean! The decor was quite tastefully done and the common areas were also super nice!

Lovely outside casual areas on the roof, excellent breakfast with homemade breads, juices, jams, and more; quick access to the restaurants and beaches (five minute walk); lovely accommodation with all amenities nicely done; friendly staff including a captain that can arrange trips.

We loved everything about our stay at Jua House. John and Amani were very kind and attentive to what we needed. The house is lovely, with traditional Swahili decoration, the room is spacious, comfortable and clean. We'll definitely come back!

I was on Lamu for 2 nights/1 day, and the best time I spent there was during my leisurely mornings at Jua House. The place is stunning, so well thought through, peaceful and comfortable. I wouldn’t have wanted to stay anywhere else from what I’ve seen on the island

Very good breakfast and house located near the main point of interest in Shela and 10 minutes walk from the sea.
