The staff and manager of the house so helpful. Lots of advice and recommendations where to eat. Also easy to find in the maze of Lamu, close to the jetty but far enough for a peaceful stay

Beautiful and spacious villa with stunning design - staying here you feel like royalty. The house staff are absolutely amazing with fantastic service and attention to detail. Definitely hire the chef and take your meals outside by the pool. Air conditioning was a huge plus. Fantastic stay.

Gorgeous house with spacious rooms! We were a group of friends and had a great time relaxing around the pool and enjoying the wonderful hospitality of the house management.

Umma House is the perfect place to stay in Lamu. Comfortable and well located, the house has everything you need from the pool to the rooftop. The team provides great service so you can relax and explore during your stay. The house has modern comforts while still feeling like a true Lamu home. I’d happily stay again and recommend it to friends.

    Very clean and friendly staff, the villa is cozy and there’s many spaces to relax on. Everything worked well and the Umma house team catered to all our needs. It’s better to prepare because there is a lot of mosquitoes

    Beautiful house with private pool, spacious bedrooms and several terraces to hang out on. Great location in old Lamu, close to shops, museums and the sea with great boat rides to wonderful beaches Manda and Shela.
