Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Kilifi County

My stay in Watamu, with my two friends, was very lovely. Yasmin, Antonio, and Mary made our stay very comfortable with their warm personalities and responsiveness to any queries we had throughout our visit. This was much appreciated when we needed assistance with things in the house. The open plan feel of the apartment with the strong breeze was something of a lifeline in the heat by the Indian Ocean and the effective A/C in all bedrooms was a blessing. The pool was clean and also very quiet which made mornings and evenings very peaceful to swim. The apartment is very well located and is just 5minutes, if that, to Watamu beach and also positioned close to the bank and nearby shops. I will be staying here again if and when I am on the coast, Gus (UK 23-29/08/24)

A beautiful place. Had wonderful time with my family. The place was clean and spacious. Zawadi the caretaker was lovely. Would recommend this place. Perfect for family.

looking forward to a future stay 😁

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 !

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?

This is a wonderful home and we had a fabulous time. We came as 2 families of 4 (from London) + grandparents (from Nairobi) - so 10 of us in total. The house is beautiful - very charming and comfortable - and spills out onto the beach (via a private gated entrance). The kids loved playing in the small private pool and having daily walks out onto the reef in low-tide. The stretch of coastline the house is on is idyllic - about 20 min drive from Watamu town. The chef and staff are very attentive. We're all vegetarian and they handled that pretty well (though naturally they're more accustomed to a meat/seafood menu). As a family/group holiday venue, this is highly recommended.

Emma's house was beautiful. so many places to sit and have great views, lovely coastal forest path to the beach which was not too busy. we were so well looked after by Saidi, Mariam and Ngumbaos. Highly recommended

This place was absolutely beautiful - felt right at home! It’s a great, clean, and convenient base in Watamu. The apartment was spotless and so practical for our stay, with a fully equipped kitchen. We had an incredibly comfortable stay. The property has a pool and is right on the beach, with stunning beach views from our balcony - it was gorgeous! It’s also very close to the market and a lovely brunch spot that serves the best ice cream. Highly recommend staying here!

Time slows down as you recline on the cushions, a frosty drink in hand, your face cooled by the breeze. Looking out over Takaungu bay, the flippers of the fishermen bobbing up and down in the waves, dhows outlining the horizon, the kids distracted in the pool, gives you the space to let go of your city worries and let the serenity wash over you like the waves of a calm mid-month ocean tide. Thank you Charlie and Philip and the amazing team for taking such good care of us. Christine's lemon cake will not be soon forgotten! We will be back!

Great place in a beautiful location with beautiful views of the neighbourhood. The host was very responsive incase of anything and made my stay even more enjoyable. My family and I will surely be back.

We had a good stay at Prudence's house. It is a modern, new, beautiful house. The pool is also suitable for night swimmers. It's very quiet. With the tuk tuk you are quickly in the center of Malindi.

Fantastic stay at the White House . Fabulous outside terrace /dining /sitting room . Perfect for chillying and cocktails! Great location 2 min walk to beach . Fantastic staff who looked after everyone beautifully

I have stayed multiple times at the Palm Beach Villas and it is always a great experience. Ben is very accommodating and responsive to any needs that may come up. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. It’s not far from the beach or town. I always look forward to coming back.

WOW!! What a fabulous trip had by all!! 8 adults and 1 baby stayed for 10 nights at Shuma house. We had an incredible trip. Shuma is breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful, you really feel at one with nature here!. Shuma house itself is stunning, plenty of space for everyone, all the rooms are quirky, spacious and full of personality. The staff were all very welcoming and accommodating, and all work incredibly hard to ensure we are well fed and looked after. Martin, Shumas chef cooked us the most delicious meals night after night! Lots of choice and flexibility with meal choices/timings/allergies etc. Robert was amazing and tended to our every need, especially our daughter Elkies needs! Thank you all so much for making our trip to Shuma House absolutely fabulous! It was an emotional goodbye, but it certainly wont be the last!! We will be back!! Thank you! 🤩

The house is spacious and has an absolutely breathtaking view of the ocean from the living room balcony. The onsite manager, Juma, was very nice and helpful and was an awesome tour guide for our excursions (snorkeling, dolphin watching, and sunset cruise) Host was responsive and was quick to address any issues. Would book again

We liked our stay very much! Very big place for ourselves with kind staff. Efrat also knows many contacts to make the stay more comfortable (drivers, chefs etc.) The private chef was a new and very affordable experience which we enjoyed very much.

we had a great stay, thank you very much.

Great location next to Che Shale Hotel that has a great restaurant and a Kiting School. Well stocked and in person checkin and checkout

Really enjoyed my stay. Gianni was very clear in his instructions and everything was set up just as we had asked for. Kashuru, the groundskeeper, is a great guy and very friendly. I also recommend you use Morris the Chef. An extra 1500 Kshs/day but his food is delicious and you can easily get groceries.

Fabulous little important, in a peaceful area close to the beach. Adhiambo was an incredible host too, always easily contactable and flexible. Charming place to stay in Kilifi. Only (small) issue was with apartment wifi. I went to Kilifi for a four week work trip and the internet was not great for calls so had to hotspot from my phone a lot. OK in general (emails/browsing) but not strong enough for calls. But there is some excellent places/cafes near by with good internet coverage. And when there were a few power cuts Adhiambo was incredibly helpful and responsive with updates.

Felt at home in this house…very peaceful and spacious house and property. The pool is lovely and great for kids and really feels private. Paul and Evans work hard and make sure you are ok, but also give space so you have privacy. The fans worked well to keep us cool at night. The house is in a great location, not far from Lichthaus/Garoda Beach area. Emilie is a wonderful host and very accommodating and communicative. Only spent a couple days there, but it was a nice break for our family.

Amazing place to relax and feel on holiday. Great restaurants in the area and the own private pool is the place to be. Alex and Pendo are the icing on the cake, great people, always welcoming and supportive and great people.

It was a reservation in the last minute, but never the less all went smooth. Gideon was responcive and gave great direction advice. Studio was clean and cosy. I wish Internet is a little better.
