DenmarkAbsolutely beautiful house. Plenty of space and in a good location in Lamu town. We’d have loved to stay longer and have more time to appreciate this lovely house, including the pool.

United KingdomWe liked the traditional style and especially the small splash pool, to cool off in. The location at the heart of Lamu town was really special.

AustriaWe stayed at Ttunu House in January 2025, and it was simply incredible! The house is beautiful, lovingly restored, and tastefully furnished. There is truly not a single thing to complain about!
The Ttunu House team—Cornelius, Stephen, and Jackson—did everything to make our stay perfect and unforgettable. Stephen cooks whatever guests desire, with only the cost of groceries charged, while the service itself is included. Upon request, we had the best tuna steaks of our lives, served with grilled vegetables and Kachumbari (a Kenyan tomato salad).
For those looking for an extraordinary vacation far from tourist hotspots but without sacrificing luxury, Ttunu House is the perfect choice! We would love to come back.
