Beach Haven! Cozy Villa
This was one of the best Airbnb I've ever been to. Late night walks at your private beach. Serene environment and lots more. Francis was super cool and made the check in process easy. Oh I can't forget about Carol OMG!! you have been such pleasant person and you made us feel at home. We will definitely be back before our vacation time ends. Thank you so much

Beach Haven! Cutest Tiny Villa in Kikambala. 2Bdrm
We enjoyed our stay at Dee's place, everything was as described and I would say that the photos don't do it any justice. The caretaker was also very kind and helpful. I definitely recommend for travelers looking for a getaway at the Coast

Magical 4-bed staffed Watamu house with epic views
My wife, I and our three children had a great holiday here. The house is located in a picturesque village surrounded by coconut palms. One of the most beautiful beaches in Kenya is about a 10-minute drive away. We had our own car, so it was not difficult for us to get there, but if you do not have transport, you can always use a tuk-tuk or a motorbike taxi. The beach is beautiful! Next to the house is an ocean bay with mangrove trees. We were very pleased that the house has two excellent SUP boards! At high tide you can ride them through the mangrove forest and it is very, very beautiful! But take shoes with you because there are sharp shells at the bottom. Nice people work in the house. Chef Joseph cooked well and was very kind. Thank him very much! We were lucky with the weather, it was not stuffy at all, so we never used the fans at night. Thanks to the owner of the house Tom and his team for good memories!

Le Pleiadi Alcyone
Great experience at Le Pleiadi. The rooms are spacious and the pool is splendid. Proper value for money. Would certainly recommend. Will be back.

Nyumba Ya Madau - Stunning Beach Villa in Watamu
Great house to spend time with family and Friends ! We loved The location on the beach, near a kitesurf spot, the swimming pool, the staff… Thank you, Flore

Donnelly House, 3 bedrooms, private beach access
This is a lovely house on the beach just next to Treehouse Watamu. The location is excellent, the staff very friendly, and the house has lots of spots to relax and hangout. It also has a nice pool, good mosquito nets and lots of fans. The ocean is a 3 minute walk and this particular stretch of beach is peaceful, empty and hassle free. The house has two good sized double rooms with a bunkbed (double down, single up) in a small corridor. It fit our family of five perfectly. Will definitely be back.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

PucciHouse 3 rooms apartment-swimming pool & Spa
The hosts are very friendly and kind. They made sure that we settled in well. We had a dedicated chef and housekeeping. There is also a SPA in the compound; if you are looking for a 3 bedroom apartment with en-suite bathrooms in a quiet area, very central, this is the right place to stay in Watamu. The supermarket is 10 minutes away. The beach is 10 min walking distance

Lion House beach house
We had such an amazing time at this house, I'm ready to go back and my birthday vacation just ended. Our host gave us all the instructions some of which we didn't know we needed- we had no questions prior to check in and the actual process was easy. Everything about this house is adorable, a beautiful space. They said beach front, we got exactly that and moving around to town was easy. I especially loved the fact that since we had no access to the kitchen the basics were provided to us and honestly as someone who prefers to eat out while on holiday, this place was perfect. It's obvious our host takes pride in his place, and as a guest,we couldn't help but treat this beautiful, aesthetically designed space with care and the same respect. Our bed was super big, super comfortable, The shower water gets nice and hot so showers are a dream. So glad I stayed here & it was the perfect getaway in every way. both logistically and aesthetically. I hope I can stay here again and again

Ahadi Beachfront Villa with pool and beach access
The house is amazing and the setting is wonderful. They also provided us with the contact to hire a cook who was great and a driver to get around the area. I recommend it 100%.

Sultan Palace Beach Holiday Apartment
Loved our stay at Mahine's place. We would definitely recommend! Timely response from Mahine in case of issues or requests. Beautiful scenery, access to the white sandy beach, several swimming pools to accommodate the many people who’ve chosen to stay there for the gem that the place is. The little ones are also well taken care of with the various baby pools and kids play and entertainment areas. Very family friendly. We will definitely be coming back.

Neem Tree - waterfront villa on Marine Conservancy
What a great place to stay! Really loved the house, the pool, peaceful beach, great snorkelling. Helpful and friendly staff. Just the get-away on the coast that we were looking for.

Kaleb's Beachfront Villa
Liked the cottage a lot. Needs some refreshing to get a total 5 star for the value from me. Otherwise enjoyed being there much.

The incredibly friendly and helpful host Franca responds quickly and is highly flexible. She effortlessly accommodates all wishes and needs, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable stay.

Isana House - a tranquil oasis
Isana House is a true gem - incredibly stylish, airy and beautifully designed with access to the sea, which is great for snorkelling at low tide. The team working at the house were exceptionally helpful and kind with a talented cook at hand running the house and creating the best food around with fresh fish and crab ordered in to your taste. We will hopefully be back, because it couldn't have been better!

Ritchie House Stunning peaceful beachfront 5BD
We had a wonderfull stay in Ritchie's House. The house itself is wonderful, has a very beautiful garden and access to the beach. The service was excellent, and the chef was very professional and good as well. In short: we had an excellent stay at Ritchie's House. On top of that, all communication with Vivienne went extremely smooth. We felt warmly welcomed, even long before we even arrived. Vivienne is very responsive, and helped us with restaurant recommendations as well.

Stunning Beachfront Villa – near Mtwapa, Mombasa
We were a family of 5; 2 adults and 3 kids aged 14 year old, 5 year old and a 2 year old. Charlottes place was amazing. We loved everything! The staff at the house make sure you are comfortable. They cleaned everyday and we had clean towels daily. The guard Suleiman, is great to book excursions if you need, a very friendly man. We hired a chef called Katana, whom Charlotte recommended. His food was fantastic, delicious and nutritious. Just let him know your preference like swahili dishes, or other dishes and he will make it. We had him make Breakfast, lunch and dinner. Polly the manager, is at the site and she can help you if you have questions, she is very responsive and friendly. I recommend this place for families with small kids and teenagers. The pool is another gem in this house. Thank you Charlotte, we miss your house already ❤️

Kilifis hidden gem
Wonderful house in a quiet area, within easy reach to Kilifi in 5 minutes by car/ 10 minutes by tuk tuk. Three large bedrooms, plenty of space to relax around the pool and a big garden... we felt so comfortable that we found it hard it to leave the house to explore Kilifi. On top of that, the fantastic staff always ready to help you and to prepare great meals (and when you are Italian food expectations are quite high..) no doubt where to go if I had to come back to Kilify. Thanks Susie for hosting us and for the early check-in.

Family beach house, birder's paradise.
Our stay at Villa Mkauju was absolutely fantastic! The villa is stunning, offering tranquility and comfort. A big thank you to the wonderful staff who were incredibly attentive and made us feel at home. Special thanks to the owner for maintaining such a beautiful property. We highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a luxury getaway in Malindi. Can't wait to return!

Kas Cottage
The space is exactly what you want for a beach getaway with friends - beautiful coastline and sea views off the back verandah. The staff are incredibly helpful yet unobtrusive, and being on Bofa Road means the rest of Kilifi is easily accessible. Highly recommended!

Panoramic penthouse overlooking the sea and wonderful pool
we had the best stay at Silvyas place. The ocean view from the apartment was amazing, access to the beach was easy any time and our chef Gibson was amazing too and on time as well.Silvya is also very Jovial 😊. Value for money and we will be back

Paradise Haven Mambrui/Malindi
It's a great place to stay but if you are traveling with kids you need to find some activities out of the villas due to some specific rules specially at the pool, other than that we enjoyed and appreciated the quality of the premises and attention in this place. Amina it's an amazing person and she always took care of us. Please ask for her whenever you come to visit this villa. Thank you.
