Lamu is a very laid-back style island, people is friendly and is easy to move around. The area is very safe and accessible right at the seafront. In Lamu we have no cars and everything in town is within walking distance. We move with little taxi boats within the islands and this makes our beautiful Lamu just unique. Shela village is about 10 minutes by boat and Manda Island about 10 - 15 minutes. The airport is also located a short 10 minute ride from the house.
