Holiday rentals with a pool in East Africa

We had an amazing break away for 8 adults and a child and the accommodation ticked all the boxes with high quality beds and bedding. The pool has a safety net over which immediately set me at ease with regards to kid safety. You really don't want for anything in the kitchen, it's fully equipped. The host was really helpful and responsive on questions. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to go back again.

everything i hoped for and more! Elle was so responsive and sweet. Bummed i didn’t have enough space in my luggage for coffee. Kingston and Bali kept me company all day and made me feel so safe. Thank you Elle!!!

I really enjoyed my stay at Kyle’s place. very clean and peaceful. I’d love to visit again in future.

One of the most beautiful airbnbs I have been to! The host is wonderful and the house manager Daisy and David are so servanthearted and helpful! I believe the pictures don’t do justice on how amazing the place actually is, so spacious and peaceful! We are so grateful!

Great host, great house, great staff, great stay! We’ve visited Watamu many times over the years and found our stay at Dragonfly Cottage one of the most copacetic. Pete’s a great host - always responsive, very accommodating. The cottage was lovely - a great use of space - well designed, stylish, and comfortable. Both bedrooms and the common room open up onto the covered veranda leading to the pool and tranquil garden. The cottages are well-located near a quiet section of the beach - which is reached down a shaded path - and a walkable distance to both the center of town and Mida Creek. Doris and the rest of the staff were very welcoming - each making a point of introducing themselves - and helpful, without being underfoot. Dragonfly’s a lovely place to stay!

We had the most incredible stay! The house was absolutely beautiful spacious, clean, and so well-equipped with everything we needed. The setting was nothing short of magical, with breathtaking views of the Crocodile River right from the property. Tim was a fantastic host friendly, responsive, and extremely helpful with recommending local safari providers, which made planning our days so much easier. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely love to return. Highly recommend!

We love Rudy's house on Jambiani beach. Look no further, it's a smooth 10 and perfect if you want to chill in a beach house.

I had a wonderful stay! The place was exactly as described : clean, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The location was perfect for exploring the area, and the neighborhood felt safe and welcoming. Our host was an amazing host ; responsive, kind, and thoughtful. They made sure everything went smoothly and even included some lovely personal touches that made the stay extra special. I’d absolutely recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting and would love to return in the future!

Absolutely STUNNING villas. I would stay here over and over again - highly recommend selecting this spot on your stay. They also offer the option for dinner and the sunsets on the patio are some of the best I've seen. Only downside here is that I worked remotely for the 4 days that I was there... the WiFi worked well overall, but it would cut out on video calls (Zoom, Google Meet, etc.). Without my eSIM + being able to hotspot from my phone, this would have been a MAJOR problem for me. Other than that, if you are solely on holiday and not needing that, this spot is the winner!

I loved the place! It was much more beautiful than the pictures could capture. There are only two downsides: Having no kitchen kind of defeats the purpose of booking an Airbnb, and secondly, all of the outlets in the house are wired for Italian electronics. You must have adapters, or you will not be able to plug anything in. Kenyan/UK plugs will not work. American plugs will not work. European plugs almost work, but they are loose and fall out. You will need Italian power adapters.

We had a great time in this apartment. Everything was very clean and thoughtful. The rooms are beautiful, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The residence is superb, quiet, with an ideal swimming pool for relaxing. The beach is a few steps away, which is really nice. The neighborhood is pleasant and peaceful, perfect for a relaxing vacation. Tawhida and her husband were welcoming, responsive and remained available for any questions📩, which made our stay even more enjoyable. 😌 We leave delighted and highly recommend this accommodation. 👍

Excellent location. A bit of confusion during check in as the apartment wasn't ready, but the maid and the front desk ladies were super kind. We just waited an hour and were able to enjoy the beautiful apartment. This stuff happens.

The villa is absolutely beautiful. Artistic fixtures everywhere that gave the feel of walking through an art gallery. Swimming pool, gym & jacuzzi all included in your stay. You couldn’t really ask for more. Florian was an amazing host, clear & timely communication, suggestions on what we could do every day (even BEFORE check in) on different parts of the island. He was persistent is ensuring we had a great experience. We have stayed at SO many different airbnbs all over the world & honestly I would say Florian is the best host we have encountered. I’m not just saying this, we don’t owe him anything this is just a true reflection of our experience. We stayed in a hotel before we stayed here & wished that we had found this place & stayed here the whole time. It turned our trip from good to great & is a big reason why we would even return to 🇲🇺. If I could rate our stay 7 stars I would as 5 doesn’t even do it justice. Thank you Florian for everything & we hope to stay with you again!

Honestly, fantastic experience! The space was clean and smelt good, it matched the photos and Vicki was an extremely communicative host. Highly recommend.

Great host. Super responsive. Highly recommended.

We had a beautiful stay at Niks place
