Domestic flight schedules in Kenya can shift unexpectedly, so it pays to pick budget rooms with free cancellation so you don't lose money if plans change. Also, when booking lower-cost spots, keep an eye out in reviews for mentions of weak fresh water pressure, power outages, or tired furniture. Take a quick look at recent guest feedback to see how things run day to day.

Beautiful property with very central location. The rooms themselves are basic but the hangout areas have nice views to the sea. Friendly staff and great value for money with lovely breakfast included.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND for all the budget travellers or not haha.
The house is always clean and rooms cleaned at your request.
A budget-friendly accommodation with a beautiful rooftop view. Good basic breakfast, friendly and amazing staff (thank you, Tom and Sam) Good location, just a few meters to the beach.

Beautiful hotel in Shela Village! The Swahili breakfast was delicious and the swimming pool was perfect after a day at the beach. Will definitely come back!
I visited shela in Lamu me and my friend were looking for a budget accommodation considering it was during the festive season in December.
Amazing cool Ambiance. Swimming pool at your door step. Food is Amazing.
Totally worth it. Most important it's located in Shella and not Lamu town, its near to Jua house. Level of cleanliness and the rooms are amazing. The rooftop room has some amazing views!
I loved my stay at Shiban House. I stayed about 8 days in total, both alone in a small room and then with a friend in the top room. Sidi and Joseph helped with our trip and made great breakfast.
My stay at Shiban house was great. Staff members Joseph and Saada did their utmost to ensure my visit was comfortable and pleasant.
