Seaside Escape
We had an amazing time at Faith's place! The house is spotless, well-organized, and filled with natural light. The balcony offers breathtaking views, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing at the beachfront pool. Faith's communication was outstanding—she was proactive and attentive from the moment we booked, throughout our stay, and even after checkout. She went above and beyond by providing helpful recommendations, including connecting us with a fantastic chef. This experience exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to staying here again in the future!

Cozy 2Bedroom Beachfront Apartment
We had an exceptional stay at Aaron's place. The location was perfect (just by the beach), in a peaceful neighborhood yet close to attractions. The place was spotless and well-equipped. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Aaron was an excellent host, always available on phone and helpful. His sister made an effort to pass by to ensure we were fully settled and took us around the compound to show us the swimming pool, gym, and access gate to the beach. He came in handy when we needed a chef. The balcony view was a highlight for us, directly facing the beach perfect for enjoying morning coffee and sunsets. The amenities, including the fast safaricom Wi-Fi and a smart TV, were great. Overall, it felt like a home away from home, and I would highly recommend it.

Amani Eco Retreat
Nice , Calm,peaceful the most serene place everyone should visit A home away from home

Beachfront Home
I really enjoyed my stay at this Apartment. It looked exactly like the photos..clean, stylish and very comfortable. Everything was well-maintained and thoughtfully set up. The location was great and near the beach.The host was super nice, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond to any questions. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place with a thoughtful host.

Marijani Sea Views Shanzu Beach Mombasa
I booked the house for a family holiday, and it was perfect , we truly felt at home. The house and rooms were clean, and we had a wonderful time. Lena and Winnie were incredibly helpful during our stay, assisting us with everything we needed and making our experience unforgettable.

Stylish Beach House, Diani Beach
We had a great stay at the property and suitable for little children. Rachel the housekeeper welcomed us and came daily, the property had everything we needed for a long week end stay. The beach was a few meters from the house with an Askari (guard) on the gate and an Askari on the main gate so you felt safe. The pool is wonderful just what was needed to cool off in the heat. We chose to have a chef, John, who bought all the groceries and fish and prepared everything requested even during a power cut he produced our evening meal. Would definitely recommend this place.

2 Bedroom Luxury Flat in Mombasa, Kenya.
I definitely would recommend a stay in this apartment. Steve was very friendly and helpful from the very first contact to our check out. The flat is very well situated, with a lot of space, comfortable, fully equipped, good and stable wifi etc., and an amazing view from the big balcony to the ocean. The apartment is also placed close to everything, the sea, the City Mall and nice restaurants. When I get back to Mombasa I will definitely book the same apartment again, if it’s available. Thank you very much Steve, for a very pleasant stay :) Claus

Mlima Cottage
For centuries mankind has been searching for the fountain of youth, and you still won't find it here, but you will find the doorway to paradise. With just one turn of the doorknob you walk through the doorway to paradise. The Indian Ocean rocking you asleep at night, your own personal chef preparing the amazing local delights, and blissful days of beach and ocean activities.

Little Maua | Stylish Hideaway on Galu Beach
We recently stayed with a group of four friends at Little Maua in Diani for three nights, and it was a great experience. The hospitality of the hosts was exceptional; they were very welcoming, and always ready to assist with any needs. The architecture and design of the building are truly remarkable, a mix of modern structures with coastal charm. The location is perfect, with easy access to the beach, allowing for relaxing walks and stunning ocean views. Communication with the host was seamless and efficient, making the entire booking process smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Little Maua for anyone looking for a serene and beautiful getaway. 🌴🏖️

Samawati, Msambweni south beach
Impeccable. Susie and her team were incredibly welcoming and we enjoyed every minute! Will definitely come again

Stunning Rooftop House only 2min from Diani Beach
Perfect vacation home for 6 people. Bedrooms had comfortable beds and great AC! Lots of space to spread out. Nice being in the resort for the service options. Great location near the beach! Patience was very responsive if we needed anything.

Mzuri Beach House - Diani - Kenya
The house is beautifully presented with 4 enormous double bedrooms, two with equally enormous balconies. The pictures do not do the property justice. Mzuri House is part of a well run little complex. Security is ever present and you feel perfectly at ease at all times. The house feels very private and is 20M from the quieter Galu Beach, an extension of Diani beach. Sails and Salty Squid restaurants are excellent and only 100M. However the main attractions at Mzuri House are Liz the housekeeper and Shee the chef. Both were amazing hosts. Liz will communicate with before you arrive. She will arrange everything for you from airport pick-ups to restaurant bookings as well as keep the house spotless. Shee the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and lunch and / or dinner. All meals were extraordinary local dishes that our usually difficult to please 3 kids devoured! We can not recommend Mzuri House enough and in particular Liz and Shee.

B3 at Diani Beachalets
I enjoyed with my family stay at John's place, beachfront cottages.

Under The Stars Kenya, Diani South Coast
Our stay in villa was pure bliss. From the warm hospitality to the exquisite food by cook Rowa and his team, every detail was perfect. The tranquil surroundings and breathtaking views made for a truly relaxing escape. A heartfelt thank you to the wonderful team—we can’t wait to return!

MilaMax Beach villa Diani
The home was easy to get to turn right immediately after Bahari Dhow on to the cabro road. The pin on the page takes you elsewhere. Bit once you get there the staff are very friendly, responsive and helpful. Check-in was quick and easy. The home is breezy, clean and feels very homely. The pool is very clean. The chef gave us a shopping list based on our menu choice and was flexible throughout. Shamila herself was also available on chat and very responsive even though she was not in the country. There are fans ans ACs in every room. The beach is practically 2 minutes walk from her gate. Just the usual vendors trying to sell you stuff. I will def be back.

Seaview Nyali, 3BR for 6pax
The apartment is close to Nyali City Mall, if you cannot find a TukTuk you can actually walk, just 5 minutes. But usually TukTuks are available. This is an extremely clean apartment, evrything is in very good order. One of the main advantages is the calm location, hardly any noise at night. I have stayed in other apartments with a lot of noise (traffic and other) at night. Communication was superb. Minor issues (and they were really minor) were solved immediately. The view from the 3 balconies is amazing, you can see the ocean. Beaches are within minutes by TukTuk. Netflix and Amazon Prime accounts are available. I will definitely consider booking again when I come back, even though the price is a bit on the high side.

Luxe apt |sea view|Ac|@antalya nyali
I had an absolutely incredible stay at this apartment. The view alone is worth every penny you can see almost the entire Mombasa coastline from the windows and balcony, making each sunrise and sunset unforgettable. The apartment is spacious and beautifully kept, with a modern yet cozy ambience that made me feel right at home. It was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities I could ask for. Additionally, the location was perfect, with a nearby mosque and a walking distance to all shops, supermarkets you name it; adding a unique cultural touch and peaceful vibe to the neighborhood. The combination of breathtaking views, cleanliness, and a relaxing atmosphere made my stay truly special. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone visiting Mombasa! Thank you to Soha abodes and her entire team i had an amaizing stay.😃

Beautiful Beachfront Studio-Apartment
Enjoyable stay at Omondi's place. Easy check in process. The building is generally old but the apartment had all the basics required. The host was extremely helpful and responsive and proactive . We had an enjoyable stay overall. Thank you Omondi.

Apartment Sandcastle 108 Seaview Diani beach
A great apartment for a perfect holiday. The service team on site was reliable and very friendly. The communication with Miguel was excellent and helpful. I'd love to come back next time.

Blue Marlin Beach front apartment
Faith is a kind and responsive host. I always choose to stay with her when I am in Diani as I know I can count on her to always be available. The place itself is in the best location at Blue Marlin and next to Salty Squid, but also with fully equipped amenities. I would recommend to anyone!

3 Bedroom Deluxe Beach Apartment
If you're looking for a safe and secure place to stay in a good part of Mombasa this is it. Located in English Point, Nyali, the complex and apartment is with easy reach of everything you want to see. The view is great, the place is new and has a wonderful view. The hosts have you covered on information and places to stay. Good wifi and beach below. Good for families or singles. Lovely dog Bobby. I'll be back.

Demure
Marie truly understands hospitality. My stay was comfortable... the neighbourhood is tranquille... the place is well maintained & cleaned. There was refillable dispenser water. I liked the fact that there was a coffee maker too. Marie is also responsive and helpful. I'll definitely stay here again.
