Pumbao House: A Stunning Villa With Swimming Pool!

KateRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We loved our stay at Pumbao House. It was perfect for our family: two parents and three young adults. It was our final stop after an few weeks traveling through Kenya, and provided the peaceful, casual, comfortable space we needed. We enjoyed every meal cooked by Mwembe, and left the decision making up to him. It was not hard to say "yes!" to "catch of the day"! He and Alex made us feel at home, and were so helpful in every way. Every bedroom was spacious and had an en suite bathroom. We used the pool every day, as well as the outdoor shower. Peponi's was just a few steps away and provided the perfect place for a "sundowner" and a card game at the end of each day, before returning to the house for dinner. I would definitely recommend this house for a family or couples/families traveling together. We created amazing memories there, especially up in the "crow's nest" at the top of the house, where we lay on deep comfortable cushions to look at the stars. We will be back!

Jaha House Shela

StaicyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Jane was very helpful even before our trip, her house, Jaha is definitely prettier than the pictures. She has done a good job with the interior and she a nice collection of books you can read while relaxing. James the chef made such tasty meals, his soups are a must have 😅 Juma was also very proactive and he helped us around the Island. Jane has done well with her team, including Nasir who picked and dropped us at Manda Airport. We had a such a lovely stay.

Mbibo House in the Shela Dunes with Pool

ClaraRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our stay at Hannah's villa in Shela was nothing short of a dream - my friends and I felt right at home from the moment we stepped foot in her beautiful home. Hannah was extremely helpful from start to finish, giving us great local recommendations and helping us book activities on the island, and checking in once in a while to make sure we had everything we needed. Surrounded by beautiful views of the Shela dunes, the house's architecture was like stepping into an Architectural Digest magazine - the bedrooms and bathrooms were pristine and incredibly comfortable, relaxing by the lovely pool was dreamy, and Lawrence's delectable cooking did not disappoint (still dreaming of his famous ginger crab and fish curry!). We were sad to leave but are looking forward to staying again soon!

Exclusive Waterfront Private Villa - Manda Island

DinaRating, 5 stars36 months ago
Feisal's place was amazing. The house sits on its own plot on Manda Island, just a quick boat ride from Shela and Lamu Town. We had a family of 5 adults, 2 kids, a toddler and 2 infants. There was more than enough space with a balcony on each floor and 3 bedrooms. The sea breeze was incredible and the pool did not disappoint. There is a long dock to go to the boat and as the level of the tide varied each day we enjoyed swimming in the sea some days and beachtime on others. Amina the housekeeper and her daughters kept the place clean and helped us with anything we needed. We hired a chef, Yousef, who cooked amazing meals and even grocery shopped for us. This allowed us to truly relax and our kids loved their time on the island..it was a true adventure for them. We visited the Takwa Ruins, shopped in Shela and ate at several local restaurants. The weather was gorgeous and when it rained it only lasted minutes. The internet speed was great both inside and outside and allowed for streaming and movie afternoons when the kids were tired. We would love to return some day!
A shaded balcony features a wooden table surrounded by woven chairs, offering a view of a calm waterway dotted with colorful boats. Lush greenery and thatched roofs are visible in the background, enhancing the serene coastal ambiance.

Shela Bliss - Al Naeem Apt.

JamesRating, 5 stars5 months ago
Fantastic place - we had a wonderful few nights here - easily could have stayed longer. Great location near the beach and other amenities (restaurants etc.). Our host could not have been more accommodating in respect of arrangements or extras, nothing was too much trouble. He is almost available 24/7. The apartment has been laid out beautifully and the all that you need for a comfortable stay. There are very clear instructions for everything. Nothing to complain about! Would thoroughly recommend staying here if visiting Lamu/Shela, you won’t be disappointed. Our little 3 year old also really enjoyed it. Access to the roof terrace is fantastic as it is a great place to chill and look at the beautiful surroundings. Delicious breakfast and able to accommodate a variety of tastes including gluten free. Beds turned down and water refilled is a very nice touch. Simply wonderful!
The dining area features a round wooden table surrounded by rattan chairs, complementing the natural wood-beamed ceiling. Artistic wall paintings add character, and built-in shelves display a minimalist decor. A kitchen space can be seen in the background, equipped with essential appliances.
