Beachfront holiday rentals in Kilifi County

The place is easy to find, matched what was sold to us and Joyce was a great host who kept the communication lines open.

We was in the off season there … it was very private and the park was huge and at the private beach front was nobody. Thats what we where looking for. The whole aerea felt very safe, but you need an own car to enjoy it because its very quiet …

Absolutely stunning house and great communication from the host and office. The house is a bit older so bathrooms are a bit old and had some issues, but apart from that it is absolutely beautiful and right on the beach. Even better than on photos!

Very nice quiet clean place. If you’re looking for a place to unwind and relax then this is your go to place.

Stayed only one night at Ian's tent in the campsite and was great to have access to the pool, beach nearby, and cute little bar

Lorine’s place is amazing! I feel like the antique furniture and aesthetics of the colonial styles was flawless! I will definitely be recommending this place to all of my friends in the future. I can’t wait to come again to see the wonderful puppy/guard dog who is always so friendly! Thank you Lorine and Emmanuel!

Very nice and comfortable.

Joanna’s place was amazing. My daughter with 6 friends went there and Joanna was very supportive and welcoming. The house is large, breezy, in great conditions, with large en suite rooms. The girls had a cook who helped prepare breakfast and dinner for a very reasonable prize , the pool was cleaned daily and the place was excellent for groups of families or friends. I would highly recommend and we will definitely go back !

Great place, clean with great access to the beach . the pool was very clean and staff were quiet attentive. would definitely recommend

The hosts are very friendly and kind. They made sure that we settled in well. We had a dedicated chef and housekeeping. There is also a SPA in the compound; if you are looking for a 3 bedroom apartment with en-suite bathrooms in a quiet area, very central, this is the right place to stay in Watamu. The supermarket is 10 minutes away. The beach is 10 min walking distance

Wonderful host, nice place that Linda has there. The housekeeper Mary was quite helpful. We had a delay with our transport so Linda extended our check out time which was commendable. She's a good host. Will for sure visit again.

Our stay at Villa Mkauju was absolutely fantastic! The villa is stunning, offering tranquility and comfort. A big thank you to the wonderful staff who were incredibly attentive and made us feel at home. Special thanks to the owner for maintaining such a beautiful property. We highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a luxury getaway in Malindi. Can't wait to return!

Not much to add to my previous reviews. My favourite place at Cowrie Shell. 100% recommend.

Liked the cottage a lot. Needs some refreshing to get a total 5 star for the value from me. Otherwise enjoyed being there much.

Our stay at Linda's place was great! Her place is spotless and beautiful. The interior decor is welcoming and lovely. Her recommendations about Chef Zena made our stay unforgettable. The Housekeeper, Jemimah, does a great job at it. She was also very helpful and responsive. The outside look might look disappointing due to the ongoing renovations, but once you get in, you realize you made a good decision to book the place. I'd write on and on, but to put it simply, you will not regret booking Linda's place. We loved it!

This is our 5th visit to The Beach House. We keep coming back for a bunch of reasons. Rehema, Ali and the rest of the staff are the best. The location right on the water with perfect views is unbeatable. Communication with Rory is consistently great. The top porch is some of my favorite square footage on the planet. And … have I mentioned how terrific Rehema is?

Lovely home, with very helpful staff and a responsive host. Definitely going to re-book when in Kilifi

Fabulous villa with masses of space and well equipped kitchen . Photos on Airbnb don’t do it justice as the villa spaces are far bigger than you’d imagine and the air conditioning worked well . The villa is private , clean , spacious and the team from medina palms looked after us extremely well . Every day we had a lovely house team who cleaned and then also came in the afternoon to do the turn down for the night . We went snorkelling one day and also enjoyed near by restaurants and the markets for shopping . Plenty of tuk tuks whenever you needed one . Thank you for a wonderful stay

We just loved this place and thought it it even more beautiful than on the images. The tasteful house offers a spectacular view directly onto the ocean. The architecture is beautiful and everything works well. The place is located in a very safe and luxurious estate with access to a private beach an larger pool. We had daily visits from cute monekys and other pretty birds. The staff is very reliable and friendly and the chef great (this is a fully serviced house wirh a cook, someone doing the clothes etc.). Our only problem was, that we did not want to leave !

We recently stayed at this Airbnb and overall had a pleasant experience. The town house was clean, well-equipped, and exactly as described in the listing. The location is far from the airport and train station as it is in Kikambala but next to beautiful white sandy beach. We, however did encounter a hassle with the check-in process. Despite this minor inconvenience, which was amicably resolved, the stay was enjoyable, and the host was responsive and accommodating. I would definitely recommend this place for its comfort and location next to the beach

The space is exactly what you want for a beach getaway with friends - beautiful coastline and sea views off the back verandah. The staff are incredibly helpful yet unobtrusive, and being on Bofa Road means the rest of Kilifi is easily accessible. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay at Hubert and Milkah's studio!

Great listing. Easy place to stay. Super helpful host. Watamu is a great spot and Medina Palms and Jades Apartment is right in the middle of it all and super lovely and convenient for the pool the beach and all there is to offer. Thank you!!!

I had an incredible stay at Luxx Suites! The resort is stunningly beautiful, with a breathtaking pool and beach that truly feel heavenly. The rooms are clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed, with pristine bathrooms that add to the comfort of the stay. The staff is exceptionally helpful and polite, always going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. Their warm hospitality made my visit even more memorable. If I'm visiting Malindi again, Luxx Suites will definitely be my go-to destination. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway!
