Lovely holiday cottage in secure compound
we stayed at Angela's cottage for 3 Nights. she was very prompt to respond to any concerns. our entire stay was a great one. Surprised that even locals do not know about this local gem of a place. I would highly recommend staying at this cottage. we had a great time with family. checks off all the boxes from privacy, cleanliness, comfort, fun. thank you. Shirin - Canada

Charlie's Plac0112787340s Watamu
I loved that the apartment was centrally located , easy to get by , only a few minutes to the beach and local restaurants and market. Like 3 banks within walking distance . The apartment was super clean , spacious and free from clatter , just what I needed, big open space with comfortable couches . The kitchen was well equipped, I loved that there was a toaster and a coffee machine. The bathroom had a laundry machine and hot water ! Perfect place for holidays/ work trips .

Ma.Fra. House Watamu
My friend and I had planned to stay at Francesca‘s for 4 nights but extended our stay since we liked it so much. The apartment seems to be pretty new, everything is very clean and furnished practically but still with nice details like the carving of the wardrobe or the wonderful terrace/balcony space. We were welcomed by Derick, who was our contact on the ground, but nevertheless Francesca always stayed in touch with me to see if we were fine. The apartment was a bit hot when we arrived, but as soon as we opened the windows and doors there was a nice breeze and it was easy to keep the house ventilated. Also, a BIG plus is that the beds and all windows have mosquito nets, so even if you leave them open, no problems with bites! Also, the accommodation is conveniently located near the beach, 3 mins away from „Watamu mall“ with a supermarket and a coffee shop, and a 15 min walk or short boda-drive from the centre. Overall a great price for value, I would definitely come again!

Oceania 1 Bedroom Double or Twin, Watamu Beach
Safety is very important to me as I have had problems at other locations; Nathan's place has 24/7 security and is very secure.

Full apartment with pool
This place is an absolute gem. My girlfriend and I had to extend our stay and needed a quite place to work remotely. This was it! Very peaceful, great internet and very temperate (never got too hot). Philippe, the host, was super responsive and very accomodating to our needs. Also the kitchen was superb, for any foody looking for a well equipped kitchen, this is the place. As for the location, it is very central, a 5 minute walk to both beaches, a new cafe just opened up on the corner for those looking for fresh croissants in the morning and there is a great gym about 1 minutes walk from the apartment. Loved it... and we will be back :)

She even went out of her way to help me with the transfers. I would definitely recommend her amd be back to stay with her. THANK YOU MARION.KEEP IT UP

A small oasis with a lot of comfort
A little slice of paradise—peaceful, relaxing, and set in a beautiful garden with multiple seating areas and a great pool to cool off in. The apartment itself is well-equipped and feels like a home away from home. It’s separate from where Esther lives next door, so you have plenty of privacy, but she’s always available if you need anything. We rented a motorbike which made getting around really easy—exploring different beaches, restaurants, the supermarket, and even the gym. Esther is a fantastic host—warm, friendly, and always happy to help. Watamu has a lot to offer, we wouldn’t stay anywhere else!

Ramoth House

Malindi -Taji Two bedroom lovely apartment
I recently had the pleasure of staying in this lovely place in Malindi, and it was spectacular. From the moment we arrived, Sila went above and beyond to ensure our stay was seamless and enjoyable. The property itself is a gem –Very Spacious ,impeccably clean, tastefully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The location is ideal, offering an easy access to the supermarket,Banks,the beach, Both African and Italian restaurants Surprisingly our host organized for us a local tour to the Gedi Ruin, Hell's kitchen in Marafa and Mambrui Sand dunes. Sila provided fantastic recommendations for local restaurants, activities, and hidden gems that truly enhanced our experience. What truly sets this Airbnb apart is the exceptional hospitality. Sila was responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making our trip memorable. Alex,the errand/ motorcycle guy who was recommended to us was also very reliable, honest and fast whenever we needed him to ge
