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.

Beachfront Home
Our stay at the Beachfront apartment has earned a special place in the hearts of my family and I. Our 2 nights experience was amazing. Everything we needed was at close proximity - literally, first the beach access gate from the apartment complex, a secure pool that gave us peace of mind when the kids were out swimming and It's easy access from the gym was just perfect for me and my wife. The views were absolutely stunning, and the sunrise, unforgettable. The sandy and coral free beach was perfect for evening walks, and we enjoyed the coconut juice offered by vendors along the way—so refreshing! The apartment is also close to two major shopping malls, so it was easy to top up our supplies. There’s even a major hotel next door, The Reef Hotel, which was great for dining out. Overall, it was a wonderfully refreshing but very short holiday, thanks to Vivian’s amazing hospitality. We must come back to this spot.

Great location for a beach retreat.

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.

Samawati, Msambweni south beach
We loved every moment of our stay at Susie's house. It is beautiful itself and has the most beautiful surroundings. The gorgeous beach is only a stone throw away. The pool helped to cool down on a sunny day. There were so many ways to relax... Also we felt in very good hands with the staff, that took great care of us and created very delicious breakfasts and dinners for us. We can strongly recommend to buy some fresh fish, which is offered by local fishermen on request at the house. We had the best sleep while listening to the ocean in front of our windows. And we could sit hours while watching the local monkey herd to play on the grass in the garden. We wish to come back again one day!

Stunning Rooftop House only 2min from Diani Beach
It is always hard to book a place based on online information and travel 1/2 way around the world to get there hoping you won’t be disappointed. In this case, I cannot wait to return! Exceeded all of my expectations! Welcome hostess, Patience and housekeeping Beatrice, kindly go above and beyond. This place is a spacious sanctuary with lush vegetation, incorrigible monkeys, and miles of soft sandy beach. Washing machine, fully stocked kitchen and air conditioning in bedrooms made our stay feel decadent. The on-site restaurant served good food and plenty of nearby restaurants along the water. The clean pools sparkled and the temperature was great.

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
Awesome place, would recommend for anyone that’s looking for a place next to the ocean. There’s a hotel nearby(5min walk) from where you can have drinks and food as well.

MilaMax Beach villa Diani
Our stay at this villa was impeccable. The host went out of her way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The house is just as good as the pictures. It's very close to the beach and the pool area is lovely. The workers at the house are well trained and very accommodating. We chose the option to include the chef and it was well worth it. The food was delicious and made it very convenient not to look for food everyday. Overall a great experience and I wouldn't hesitate to book this villa again.

Mawimbi Cottage Shamsa collection Beachfront Galu

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.

2 bedroom Beach front Apartment near Whitesands

Amani Eco Retreat
We are a family of 4 and stayed at Ulrike's place with for a week. First of all the hosts were very hospitable. We felt welcomed and at peace. The workers were also readily available and and always happy to help. Secondly, the property and the amenities were as described if not better. The space was well kept, maintained, and absolutely beautiful. Services are within 5km range. We hired a car for the entire stay which gave us maximum flexibility. Ulrike gave us a lot of information about places worth of visiting. We fully recommend Ulrike's place! Ulrike and Parvez are people with warm hearts and they've build an amazingly beautiful place that we had the pleasure to stay at. Don't even think twice before booking.

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
Miguel's apartment is highly recommended! Everything is very appealing and clean. The air conditioners work very well, the bed is very comfortable and the pool is great. An outstanding place to stay for Kenya. Miguel is very pleasant in communication and always responds quickly and helpful. All in all: a super AirBnB!

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.
