I was about to not book this place because of mixed reviews, but I am very glad I did. We stayed for a week, it really exceeded our expectations! Caroline and her staff were amazing, the place was always thoroughly cleaned in the morning, same with the pool, and the food was surprisingly cheap and really really good. Same with breakfast, which was also varied; many hotels lack that. Our special requests were no problem and they have many nice, private spaces to relax. I absolutely recommend this place.

Jua House is extremely beautiful, furnished with a lot of love, every corner thoughtfully decorated with respect for the local culture. The rooms are beautiful, too, ane the bathrooms and showers are great. The place is really more beautiful than on the pictures. There's a beautiful terrace, where breakfast is usually served, and then another roof top terrace on top – ideal for yoga or sunbathing. The breakfast was amazing! Jua House is known as a bakery, too. There were freshly baked bread, fresh fruit, swahili specialties, omelets, juice and much more every morning. Even the coffee was good, sourced and roasted by a small local company/café/school project. Additionally, there was tea time every afternoon with more house-baked pastries. We wish they would offer lunch and dinner too – we would've probably just stayed at the house all day:) There was filtered drinking water available all day. Amani was super helpful and so nice. We stayed for three nights but we wish we would've stayed for a week or more. They had us picked up at the airport/airstrip by boat and organized transport at reasonable prices whenever we needed it. Shela town is tiny, there are no cars or even tuk-tuks, only a handful of motorcycles coming from Lamu town – other than that it's just small boats, lots of donkeys and an occasional camel for transportation.

Kijani is a charming little hotel in Shela, well located to discover the village on foot, and the nearby islands by boat. It has everything one needs for a perfect holiday; provides a quiet and peaceful backdrop. We loved the flexibility of management (even with last minute issues), return boat transfers included in the price, amazing breakfast and restaurant. Fantastic staff (management, reception, cleaning team, restaurant, kitchen, guards, in short: EVERYONE): kind, attentive, all while being respectful of privacy. We have stayed elsewhere in Lamu and Kijani truly stands out. Thank you.

I loved my time at Shela Bliss. The owner was so kind, always available to help, organized fun activities every day, and made amazing breakfasts with fresh juices every morning. Felt like staying with a friend! I was really impressed by how clean and well-kept the place was. The rooms, bathrooms, and common areas were all fresh and tidy-it made the stay so comfortable. Abdullah clearly takes pride in the place, and it shows! Would happily stay again.
