Loved everything! Every detail exceeded expectations from its preserved traditional Swahili architecture, plunge pool, and cozy pergola to the spacious rooms and comfy beds. The house is conveniently located, a short walk from the seafront and popular points of interest, with Mr. Safari and his team going above and beyond, from airport pickups to being just a call away. I loved the thoughtful addition of standing fans, which kept us cool in the Lamu heat! I’d 100% recommend Andavelo House! The location might be surprising initially, as you pass locals going about their daily lives and navigating some less-than-ideal surroundings (like open sewers and donkey dung). However, this is not a reflection of Andavelo House, which is a stunning oasis that makes the journey worthwhile.

That place is absolutely amazing 😍 we had the privilege of getting the big room and the balcony has a perfect view over the ocean and the harbour and the promenade. We really enjoyed the spacious room. It's all ready nicely designed as well. But our favourite thing in pwani house was our host Ibrahim who made the best breakfast for us and was always available during our stay. We will definitely book there again!

After a slight misunderstanding as to the day or arrival, Elizabeth and Cornelius promptly managed to solve the issue and pick us up and have the house ready for us. The staff was always courteous and available to help us. Steven, the cook, cooked wonderful meals as per our requests and we settled all bills directly with him. The swimming pool is marvelous and the terrace is also a wonderful spot when the breeze flows. Highly reccomendable if you prefer to stay in Lamu old Town to explore historic sights, rather than in Shela.
