Top Lamu Hotel Reviews

Peponi Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This resort is a dream! The property is gorgeous, the staff were exceptional, and the food was amazing. We loved every single minute of our stay. From our greeting by Charro with a perfect G&T to the 3rd generation owner Kaila’s caring assistance our 5 day visit was truly special. The entire staff was just superb. My only note is to provide more towels as the extreme heat made for many showers. If you have an issue with heat like we do, I suggest booking far in advance for one of the few aircon rooms. I highly recommend the Peponi Resort for all travelers to Kenya! You will want to return again! ❤️"

Kizingo Beach Eco Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Kizingo Eco Lodge lived up exactly to what we were looking for: a totally off-the-beaten track eco lodge (consisting of 8 'banda' straw guest bungaloes), well away from the hustle and bustle of Lamu Town and Shela. Its location could not be more perfect: one corner of the lodge faces the Indian Ocean, while the other faces the river/mangrove area (which also boasts the nicest sunsets in all of Lamu). From our banda, built on stilts into the dunes, we could hear the waves of the Indian Ocean and feel the ocean breeze blow through our room every night. The staff attended to our ever need, so despite being the only guests during our stay, we never felt alone. We combined 4 nights here with one night in Shela, which felt like an appropriate balance for us between spending time with nature vs. learning more about Lamu Town, its history and its culture. (To be clear, Kizingo's thatched roof bandas made largely of straw and reeds are more open to the elements than even a Safari tent (which have zippers, etc), so come prepared to be at one with nature.)"
