Jaha House
At the northern end of Shela Village where the houses meet the sea and the ancient craft of dhow building is still practiced with bow and drill and traditional hand-tools, stands Jaha House. Walk up the sandy path from the beach shack at the high tide line and in two minutes you will stand before the door of a beautifully plastered house with the sound of cool splashing water and the scent of delicious herbs and spices cooking filtering from within.
The views to Lamu channel and the mangroves of Manda Island are gorgeous, the sunrises and sunsets from the roof terrace are un-missable and the ambience of the house will ease your mind and feed your soul.
The house has three bedrooms, each with ensuite bathroom. Elegantly decorated with Swahili stucco, dressing tables and reading lights.
