This was a cool relaxed place. The food, both breakfast and dinner, were good and there was evn gluten free banana pancakes 🙂. The staff were great and helped organise trips. The pool was as refreshing in the midday heat. Would definitely recommend.

Nothing to dislike about this hotel, we had an amazing stay and would definitely stay there again if we find ourselves back in Lamu.
