Sai Shanti House

Clean and quiet place, very central to many places. Chris was friendly, picked us from Jetty and explained to us how to navigate Shela, the map helped a lot

Very warm and friendly reception. Beyond expectations! We were initially doubting to book due to a false comment of bathroom privacy issue, but we took chances and had a lovely stay, bathroom/shower is separated with locking mechanism from both sides. Host is super friendly, and greets/welcomes from Jetty, and even from Airport offers pickup service, which feels like home. We broke a glass accidently and they were cool about it too. Very accommodating, always at service to take us around as historical alleys there don't show up in Maps. We will return for sure.

Bed sheets could be changed more often. Definitely try Sunset Sailing Boat, and negotiate the fare with speedboats.

Chris is a lovely host, knowledgable and helpfull. Thank you for making our stay enjoyable, we hope to see you again soon in Shela. Sai Shanti is well equiped hideaway- perfect for recharging and relaxing.

Great location, easy to get local Swahili cuisine / health food stores and to walk to the hotels or beach or sand dunes. Good amount of space for kids to run around inside and friendly neighbours. Great communication with Chris and his team. We would definitely stay again if we are in Shela.
