Great value for Shela!
While it’s true that Jannataan could use an upgrade, this hotel is perfectly clean and has all the basics for a budget traveler who wants to stay in Shela. I paid 4,000 KsH to stay in a big room here, the next cheapest place was 6,000 KsH.
The breakfast here was good, and I really enjoyed the pool on the hot afternoons when it was too scorching to wander around.

Be cautious when it comes to valuables.
I came to unwind at Jannataan Hotel from the 7th to 12th of Jan 2024. At first, I absolutely appreciated the great value for the stay but it is with deep sadness that I have to give a negative review as my phone was stolen from room 5A as I had just stepped out to have breakfast. The manager tried to help retrieve the phone by asking to search the staff members but it seemed pointless as there are no CCTV cameras and or a safe to store valuables! I didn't receive any form of compensation & had to ask for assistance from back home in order to find my way back to Nairobi. Be cautious!

Terrible hotel
The firts 2 night I slept in a room which was quite small but not so bad, however the bathroom was terrible. There was not handle in the bathroom door. The WC was dropping water and there was a giant bins to collect the water. The sink was rusty and the bathroom was very dirty, there were even hairs on the floor. Totally disgusting! I slept in many low budget hotels and in hostels but I never saw a bathroom like this, even wrst that a public bathroom!!! The third night I was moved to another room that was bigger and have a more normal bathroom. The manager was nice and gave me a discount because of the terrible experience in the first room. The swiiming pool was ok. The breakfast very small.

It has SO MUCH potential, but needs action! For now, good budget option for few days
The moment I walked in I started wondering every thing I would do if I managed this place to make it #1 in TripAdvisor. It doesn’t really need a whole lot of money as the building itself already has so much potential!
First the good:
- The terrace has a great 360 view over Shela. You can see the sea, the neighboring buildings, etc. It was by the best rooftop view we had while in town.
- The verandas are lovely… Spacious, with plenty of places to sit/lay down and just relax! They also come and serve breakfast/meals in the verandas which is lovely.
- The staff is GREAT! They make everything they can to help you and always with a big smile on their faces!!!
- The pool is quite big and looks nice, although it wasn’t very clean when we were there (I’ll assume it is because it was low season and we were the only guests and showed up by surprise! There’s no excuse to not be clean the rest of the year!)
- Breakfast was fulfilling and we had lunch there one day which was simples (grilled chicken, rice, fries) but tasty!
- They have a fridge in each floor where we can keep our outside drinks, food, etc.
- Location is great.. Shela is lovely and this place is just few steps way from Shela beach.
Now, the improvement opportunities… small things that can make a huge difference:
- Need to do some maintenance in the rooms… Ex: rusty metal around the windows, our window wouldn’t fully close because of that, fan was rusty (although it worked perfectly), etc. Also need to add window nets to prevent mosquitoes to come inside (the mosquito net on the bed was good though)
- Desperately needs to do maintenance in the bathrooms… In our room the toilet seat was half missing, the water hole in the floor was totally opened, shower was rusty and had a hole in the wall.
- Need to make sure the place where the linen/towels are kept does not smell like an old closet. During low season they can put the clean linen/towels in the sun every now and then (or re-wash) so they don’t get this smell.
- Get rid of ugly furniture… Our room had beautiful Swahili furniture…. plus a modern ran down wardrobe that had nothing to do with the rest. Just get rid of these things that don’t add to the property and room will feel more spacious and well decorated.
- Provide WHITE toilet paper… doesn’t need to be fancy, but the grey one is overly cheap like what you’d get in a busy and dirty train station.
- Keep the pool clean AT ALL TIMES. It is such a big plus of this place, but when you go upstairs and look down and see the sand in the bottom is a big letdown...
- There’re 3 types of rooms: double room, twin room and family room. Twin room and family room are fine, spacious, good ventilation and the bathroom is slightly better. Double room feels a bit small - I'd skip them (and if I managed the hotel change them to single room to gain space). It is worth paying a lit big extra for the big room or sleep in the twin one for the same price.
With this changes, this would make this the best budget place in the island, by far!
To make it Top 3 in Tripadvisor (considering value for money as I found the better hotels a bit overpriced - I truly believe it has potential), then it need some investment (but not too much) in renewing the bathrooms as they look quite ran down and adding some fine touches (e.g. better linen, redoing the beach chair covers, investing in a beautiful decoration in the ground floor, add more green to the garden, etc.)

Value for money
The nearest 5-star hotel is across the channel on Manda Island. It costs 6 to 10 times more than at Jannataan. There levels of service cannot be the same. You get what you pay for. We figured out how to eat well at Jannataan. Talk to staff, set your menu and give them money to buy ingredients. You will have a wonderful meal at a fraction of the nearby restaurant. If you are on a budget, it's the place to stay.
