“BEST BALCONY IN SHELA”
23 Aug 2023
Since Stopover is the first guesthouse you see when arriving at Shela's seafront from Lamu, my gut instinct was to see where else we could stay, but we could not have imagined a more perfect, relaxing (and very clean) place. Hamid, the manager of Stopover, made us feel very comfortable and safe, and the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Our 2nd floor balcony overlooking the sandy approach to Shela and line of fishing boats and dhows was a bargain itself. Add the mosquito-netted traditional Arabic beds, eager-to-please staff, and delicious fresh fish meals and you have the perfect spot to experience the varied cultures of Lamu island. You can wander around Shela village, walk the beach, or go into nearby Lamu town (for which I highly recommend Ali as a guide to introduce you to Arabic culture through his eyes). It is SAFE, relaxing, romantic and so interesting to experience. The Stopover (Shela location) is the perfect base for your Lamu adventure.

“LITTLE HEAVEN IN SHELLA!!!”
31 Jan 2023
Stop over is one of the first guest houses you notice when arriving in shella situated directly on the oceanfront.It is such a great place! Very nice rooms clean, and beautifully furnished.The staff could not be more welcoming and friendly! Breakfast was decent! The view of the ocean from the guest house was simply mind-blowing!!! For sure the best place to stay in Shella for that price bracket, talking from experience having visited a couple others before which are way inside the village. Will definitely come back here! Highly recommended

“Comfortable Inn in Shela”
27 Nov 2022
The hotel is spotless clean and beautifully furnished. We were at the penthouse which was huge. The private terrace has a bed great for taking naps, two armchairs and a beautiful view to the sea. The beds were very comfortable and huge, with nets for insects. Rooms lack toiletries, but provide towels. The hotel has a very good restaurant and serves an equally good breakfast with many choices (not buffet, you chose an option for carbs/protein, a fruit or juice, and coffee or tea). The checkout is strictly at 10am and you have not the option to use the common areas, but you can leave the luggage at a deposit for free until your departure time from the island. The staff is kind an eager to help (tips are welcome). The hotel arranged our pick up from the airport at an extra cost. Then we arranged different activities with the boat captain. It would be great if the hotel could offer activities in the island. The hotel is very close to good restaurants and some shops, and the Shela beach is reached in less than 10 minutes walking. All the restaurants we tried were very good (Peponi, Pizza 0 and Bahari).
