Jannat House

Jannat House - Lamu Kenya coast

Jannat means paradise in Arabic. The hotel is situated in the old town of Lamu. The beaches are not far from the property. The house dates from the 18th century and was originally built as a merchant´s house, although today it has modern style upper floors. This small hotel is steeped in history, having been owned by the famous Muawiya family, descendant from the uncle of the Prophet Muhammed.

Jannat House has 16 bedrooms mainly doubles and a total of 35 beds altogether, original Swahili style with typical furniture, 5 terraces some with sea view, swimming pool, good JAVA coffee, bar and restaurant. Jannat is a hotel that offers you the ultimate experience of relaxation, adventure and exotic Swahili lifestyle. It is a perfect place for professional and personal retreat.

There is an atmosphere of silence and peace which makes Jannat House the perfect place for relaxation. The hotel has no air-condition nor glass windows, as the soothing wind from the Indian ocean is quite effective. There is cold and
warm water (no hot water ). There is no TV or telephones in the rooms.

Cuisine in the restaurant is influenced by the Swahili flavour, characterized by coconut milk and Arabic spices. The restaurant maintains a smart-casual dress code for dinner. A la carte and barbecue dinners are common. Some rooms have been recently renovated and are small but of higher standard than the old rooms. Some rooms are self contained, others share bathrooms.

Safari Destinations

Zanzibar Beach

Just like Tanzania, Zanzibar is three hours in the advance of Greenwich Mean Time (GMT+3). It doesn't operate daylight saving time, and consequently there's no time difference between Zanzibar's summer and winter months.

Discover Uganda

Uganda is a truly “authentic” safari destination - definitely less sophisticated than Tanzania or Kenya in terms of infrastructure and not in the same “big game” league, but equally untouched and as genuine as Africa gets.
Uganda’s gorillas, chimps, birds and the wider range of special-interest attractions (from butterflies to orchids) makes it a perfect match for first timers and seasoned African visitors alike.

Visit Tanzania

Tanzania home to Africa's most dramatic and famous features.  Fantastic wildlife, stunning scenery and idyllic beaches Tanzania is virtually unrivalled in terms of wildlife population and diversity. From the biggest African plains, the Serengeti, to the highest African mountain, Mt Kilimanjaro, to the deepest African Lake Tanganyika.
Pemba offers classic tropical beaches to those wanting to get away from the crowds, whilst the Selous Game Reserve never disappoints those looking for lion and elephant!
