It is situated 300 metres from Lamu Fort and offers luggage storage space. In addition to free WiFi, the property also features a sun terrace as well as beauty services. It was a great trip to Lamu. The hotel owner will give you a map with detailed information about Lamu and will also tell you the transportation price in advance for reference. The view from the rooftop tower is great, you can watch the sunrise, the breakfast is delicious, the room is very comfortable, and I had many great conversations with the owner in the evening. I hope the business will continue to improve.

Decorated with wood-carved Swahili furniture, the rooms have a seating area and some of them have private balconies. The bathrooms also come with towels. Extras include linen and a fan. Jannat was the best place I could possibly think of booking in Lamu. It's super close to everything.but it is quiet at night. The staff is amazing! The pool is nice and clean. The sunsets are to die for. The room was simple but very clean and comfy. And they make amazing food!
