A gem of a hotel, fantastic location, decor, views and breakfast and staff.
Excellent location in the heart of Lamu town. I was given the choice of the available rooms. I loved the decor. Beautiful view of the sunrise from the terrace. Breakfast was so tasty. Muhammed also arranged a brilliant sunset boat trip for me for a great price.
I was awoken at 04.50 each morning with the noise from the nearby Mosque, but it was to be expected.

A perfect place in Lamu
AMU house is a beautiful old and carefully restaured historical house. And the terrace on the roof top is perfect for relaxing and reading. The right place when you prefer the authentic life of Lamu to the touristy places of Shela. Thank you, Mary and Hussein for your hospitality, for your time, for organizing a stunning sailing trip, and for our unforgettable walk on Manda Island.

Like connecting with long lost family
Everything was fantastic at Amu House from the moment we arrived we were treated like family & that continued for the duration of our stay including sharing dinner with Mary and Hussian and the rest of the wonderful family, New Year's Day watching the Dow race together on our own private boat & many enjoyable conversations over breakfast Breakfast was an absolute treat with the banana pancakes being the best I've ever tasted so much so that we ended up having double portions of them and the apple French toast every day along with freshly squeezed juice from local fruits and as much spcied chia tea as we could drink On the first night we stayed I didn't sleep very well as the mattress was too soft for my back, as soon as I mentioned it to Mary she immediately bought a new mattress so that I would be comfortable & I slept like a baby for the duration of our stay There's so many more great things I could say about Amu House including the fact that its great value for money but it's best that you just try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed 😊
That we couldn't stay longer 🥺

Amu house is stunning, really it’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve stayed in and was quite sad when the time came to leave. It has beautiful architecture and furniture, very clean with really friendly owners and staff. There are lots of chill out spaces in the communal areas and very centrally located.

Staff were incredible, always on hand to help with organising boat trips, transfers down to Shela (nearby more touristy area at south of Lamu) and flexible for breakfast timings.
Hot tap in our shower didn't work, water pressure was very soft. Although this didn't matter too much given how hot the weather was - cold showers weren't too bad!
