Apartment holiday rentals in East Africa

This was one of best Airbnb stays ever! Apartment was spotless and well equipped. Basic cooking condiments and espresso coffee pods were a great touch. Private beach right in front of the apartment was great for swimming. Highly recommended!

Five star apartment with a five star host. Superb views from a spacious well equipped Penthouse apartment. The host, security and cleaner were all very friendly and helpful. Local restaurants at the end of the lane were great and a short walk up the beach to the restaurants of Long Beach. Snorkelling and water sports at your doorstep. Highly recommended.

Would stay again in a heartbeat! Great location and walking distance to the beach, restaurants, bars. I felt right at home here. A beautiful, comfortable apartment with all the kitchen tools needed. Rachel and Fatima were wonderful and responsive. An excellent choice for your stay in Diani Beach!

Ayan was a wonderful host! She welcomed us personally and showed us the beautifully furnished apartment. It was very clean and well maintained. Through her profile, we discovered fun activities and found great inspiration for our stay. She was very helpful, which made our stay much easier. I could reach her at any time, and she always responded quickly to my messages. The apartment is very bright, which we personally really liked. It’s furnished in a minimalist Swahili style, which added a unique and charming touch. If it’s available next year, we’ll definitely book again!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home — spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully equipped. The bedrooms were cool and comfortable thanks to the air conditioning and fans, making nights by the beach relaxing and restful. The housekeeper Sylvia and the chef truly made our stay unforgettable. Their warmth and attention to detail made the house feel like home, and by the end of the trip, they genuinely felt like part of the family. The house has everything you need, including beach towels for both the semi-private pool and the beach, which is just a few steps away. Getting around was easy — we hopped on a tuk-tuk to explore the town and visit places like Stiltz, where we even got to feed bush babies! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily return in a heartbeat.

Incredible stay in this beautiful residence, and what can I say about Noor's sympathy, responsiveness, everything is great, the apartment is super well furnished, the rooms are spacious and bright. I recommend it 1000% 😌

It was the 4th place we stayed at during our trip and we found it to be a perfect end to our trip. Eden Island provides a different flavour from the rest of (laid back/chilled out) Seychelles - pedal-ball courts, tennis court, club house, swimming pools, kid's park, private beaches protected from rough seas, yachts lined up outside every apartment, golf carts to drive around freely, the Eden Plaza mall with a super-store and several high-end restaurants, ice-cream parlors and cafes - everything you could need is within a few minutes of walking/golf-carting. Ronan's place was at a superb location. His communication was clear, helpful and proactive. The place was exactly as described. Very comfortable. Ronan allowed us an early checkin as well as a late checkout - superb host and a superb place!

The place was super peaceful. The pictures honestly don’t do it justice. Great for a reset from the bustling noise of city life. The animals, the birds, the sunsets and the sunrises all these along with the remote nature of the place will have you reshuffling your itinerary to get a day off to sit with a book and a cup of tea. Kim and Tim are also absolutely amazing. Kind, attentive and homely. A few days in and this will feel like a home away from home. The place itself has all the amenities you’ll need and more. Need some milk? They got you. Rusks. Sorted. That thing that gets the core out of your apple? That too. I could go on forever about this place. But 1000 characters available. In summary. A 10/10 stay if ever you’re in the area.

The location is unmatched! You can safely walk to the mall and get all the things you might need. The pool was enjoyable and the view was unbeatable. It’s a suitable place to stay in Mombasa for holidays!

The place is wonderful and the hosts are great. Very responsive and allowed me to check in super early. I really enjoyed staying at the place. It is pricey, but stunning views and great location. My only comments are that I could see some of the furniture has been stained, damaged or worn by other guests. Also for a place this expensive there were no luxury amenities. Amenities were very basic. TV in living room was a bit older so I could not get Netflicks or Youtube. Still a great place but these things would have made a great place - superb. Minor touches but this place is definitely still a 9.9/10 and I would highly recommend it.

Patricia is a super host. She communicated well and made things run smooth. This place was great! Super clean, comfortable and spacious. Risper the housekeeper and Wafula the chef made this vacation extra sweet for us. We cleared the plates from delicious meals everyday and Risper was very hospitable. Having the pool was a plus. This is a hidden gem that we hope to come back again to someday. We are forever grateful!

Sheela was very nice and helpful, the apartment was very clean, better than the pictures and very nice. Everything needed and more was present in the apartment. Only thing to consider is you really need a car if you are renting this apartment, there is secure onsite parking.

Nice simple accommodation, in a great location. Directly by the sea with access to the sea with great snorkeling opportunities. There is a small supermarket nearby and Victoria is also only 15 minutes away by car. We were super satisfied!

We had a lovely stay at Ilze's place. Our check in went smooth. We were greeted by a very clean, modern and tidy bachelor pad. The little amenities of coffee, tea, sugar, body wash etc was a nice touch. The estate is safe and quiet. The Ilze was very responsive. We had a lovely stay and would definitely use it again. Thank you.

The apartment was really great! The location in Black River (west of Mauritius) is perfect for excursions and daily supply (supermarket, restaurants, boulangerie etc.) is just around the corner. The apartment complex is very nice, clean, safe and well maintained. The pool and the lookout from there on black River Bay and Le Mourne is tremendously great - not only for sunsets. The apartment itself doesn’t lack anything. It was perfectly clean, felt very nice, private and welcome to be inside of it and the balcony is great to enjoy your food or just to relax. It’s in our opinion of a perfect size for four people (family) and the available utensils/ items in the kitchen are well thought-through. Priscilla is a wonderful host with a perfect balance of being very helpful, friendly and reliable without forcing you to anything. We would definitely recommend the apartment as we experienced it.

Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful home! We cannot wait to return

We had a lovely stay at this place. The little book sent was useful and appreciable.

We had a pleasant stay: functional kitchen, linen provided, coffee maker, coffee capsules provided for the first days, same for laundry. This is very pleasant when you arrive, because it takes a little time to recover from the 11 hours of plane and go shopping. The accommodation is high up, the view is exceptional. There are a few turns to take before you reach the top and access the accommodation. The road is not or is poorly lit, so it was a challenge to go up by car in the evening. A small binder is provided, with all the instructions and which acts as a tourist guide (it's super nice). Céline is responsive and that's really reassuring, knowing that it was a first for us in Reunion. We didn't use the spa because we wanted to enjoy every second of Reunion. We will miss breakfast on the terrace, it's so nice. Very nice apartment!

One of my favourite Airbnb stays. Loved staying in the local village. Eric was so friendly and the accommodation had everything we could need. We could walk to restaurants and the supermarket and it was a short drive to beaches and places of interest.

We had a fantastic experience staying at this Airbnb! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated, with all the amenities I needed for a relaxing stay. The location was perfect—quiet, safe, and close to local shops, restaurants, and public transport. It made getting around really easy. Our host was incredibly responsive. Thank you for the hospitality Jorge.

Their place is absolutely gorgeous. Amazing view of the morning sunrise, but also in general. It’s a comfortable home.

A beautiful apartment in the perfect location for anyone needing to be in the Sandton area. Will definitely stay again.

Fantastic and spacious 3 bedroom apt on 22nd floor - great view over Nairobi and opposite to JW Marriott hotel. safe location in Westlands, easy access to any location via Bolt/Uber. We truly enjoyed our stay and even extended by 2 days. We will certainly come back to this place, once we visit Nairobi again. Fully recommended.

Maryland is a friendly, warm hostess, full of little intentions. The accommodation is decorated with great taste and is equipped with all the useful and necessary amenities. The Zen spirit and the cozy Cocoon side are totally present with the Zen garden/terrace and the Jacuzzi. We wanted a relaxing cocooning weekend: mission accomplished.
