Seaside Escape

DesmondRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We had an amazing time at Faith's place! The house is spotless, well-organized, and filled with natural light. The balcony offers breathtaking views, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing at the beachfront pool. Faith's communication was outstanding—she was proactive and attentive from the moment we booked, throughout our stay, and even after checkout. She went above and beyond by providing helpful recommendations, including connecting us with a fantastic chef. This experience exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to staying here again in the future!

Modern 3Br Penthouse w/ ocean view & pool

JanellRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had a great stay at Miriam's place! The location was very convenient (Ubers always just minutes away and lots of restaurants available for food delivery through Glovo), and wonderful communication from both Miriam and Georgina. The place was clean and we had access to a cleaner each day to do some small cleaning and bedding changes. We only had two minor issues: 1. The listing states that there is private beach access, which is not really accurate. There is a back gate that leads to the water, but no beach, just a rocky area. This was a main reason for booking the place, so this was disappointing. 2. We were told by Georgina after we were already there that the pool is not suitable for swimming. This should also be updated in the listing. Would still recommend the place, and we enjoyed our stay.

Great appartment, really well equipped kitchen that made it possible to cook. Very much enjoyed my stay. A pity the gym was closed due to refurbishments at the time, but otherwise excellent.

White House, beach cottage

SarahRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We lived our stay at the White House cottage. It exceeded our expectations and we would love to return. We are a family of four and it was perfect. The staff was so warm and helpful. Definitely hire the local chef recommendation. We had delicious food in the convenience of our own veranda looking at the ocean. The location right on the beach with the private, expansive grounds was perfect. The house has incredible views and is extremely comfortable. I highly recommend. If you have a big group, try to rent the White House next door and have an amazing holiday with family or friends.

For centuries mankind has been searching for the fountain of youth, and you still won't find it here, but you will find the doorway to paradise. With just one turn of the doorknob you walk through the doorway to paradise.

Had a wonderful time at Little Maua. Really appreciated how helpful and responsive Carl & Delphine were - and the hospitality was truly genuine, over and above.

The Koi Casbah beachfront home on Galu Beach.

PatriciaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
My family and I booked last minute to stay at Boris's house and I must say they made the last minute rush possible. Amy who is Boris's co-host was extremely responsive and facilitated pick up from sgr and recommended a chef who was remarkable and prepares wonderful, finger licking meals. All issues raised were addressed immediately and I couldn't be more grateful to them for being such gracious hosts. Would absolutely visit again.

Luxury Ocean Front Family Villa Tiwi Beach Kenya

NirvanaRating, 5 stars4 months ago
What a gorgeous place. If you’re an animal lover, this is the best place to be in the Diani area. Monkeys everywhere on the veranda, in the garden, by the pool! Gorgeous birds. Starfish island nearby. Adequate snorkeling. I was initially worried because the Honeymoon Tent seemed like a better choice online, but to us, Ocean View villa has the most to offer of the properties on the compound! Lovely as a couple or for a group you know intimately (the rooms are quite porous if sharing the home). Mike was incredibly helpful and flexible, with an incredible life story. Martin our chef was warm and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Would definitely come back again. PS would recommend ordering the shopping ahead of time, can be a bit hectic to do it on the night of your arrival.

Mzuri Beach House - Diani - Kenya

PaulRating, 5 stars9 months ago
The house is beautifully presented with 4 enormous double bedrooms, two with equally enormous balconies. The pictures do not do the property justice. Mzuri House is part of a well run little complex. Security is ever present and you feel perfectly at ease at all times. The house feels very private and is 20M from the quieter Galu Beach, an extension of Diani beach. Sails and Salty Squid restaurants are excellent and only 100M. However the main attractions at Mzuri House are Liz the housekeeper and Shee the chef. Both were amazing hosts. Liz will communicate with before you arrive. She will arrange everything for you from airport pick-ups to restaurant bookings as well as keep the house spotless. Shee the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and lunch and / or dinner. All meals were extraordinary local dishes that our usually difficult to please 3 kids devoured! We can not recommend Mzuri House enough and in particular Liz and Shee.

MilaMax Beach villa Diani

Regitze SkouRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed our stay at MilaMax! It was like paradise. Very nice and helpful staff, and an excellent chef who cooked everything we wished for. Very beautiful home inside and out - we especially loved the pool area and the proximity to the beach. We also had a very nice massage at the end place. Can only recommend!

Seaview Nyali, 3BR for 6pax

RainerRating, 5 stars4 months ago
The apartment is close to Nyali City Mall, if you cannot find a TukTuk you can actually walk, just 5 minutes. But usually TukTuks are available. This is an extremely clean apartment, evrything is in very good order. One of the main advantages is the calm location, hardly any noise at night. I have stayed in other apartments with a lot of noise (traffic and other) at night. Communication was superb. Minor issues (and they were really minor) were solved immediately. The view from the 3 balconies is amazing, you can see the ocean. Beaches are within minutes by TukTuk. Netflix and Amazon Prime accounts are available. I will definitely consider booking again when I come back, even though the price is a bit on the high side.

Your Coastal Oasis!

Richard GeromeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I love this bnb! this was my 2nd stay and won't be the last. whenever am traveling to mombasa this is my go to spot. the bnb is beautiful the decor is kool unique and stylish . the seller is the view!! it's what really draws me there each time. loaded with amenities pretty much everything you can think of is there. very comfortable sofa seating and bed. I literally have no complaints the only thing that could make it better is if it was in a more happening area but it's easy to get around with ubers. the host is amazing she always gets back to me with any concerns and rectified them. she definitely takes wanting us to have a good experience serious. pro tip . there is a store nearby on called food plus where you can get cases of water, snacks and even food stuff for cooking. the big thing is there is also a pharmacy and atm in that same Plaza. good to know because there is not an atm at the premises where you'll stay. cash is king.

Stunning Beachfront Studio Apartment

IsaiahRating, 5 stars2 months ago
My stay at this beachfront Airbnb in Diani was nothing short of spectacular! The location is perfect—just a 2-minute walk to the beach, making it incredibly easy to enjoy the soft white sand and turquoise waters at any time of the day. One of the most magical experiences was watching the morning sunrise from the property. The view was absolutely breathtaking as the golden rays reflected off the ocean, creating a peaceful and serene atmosphere. Whether you’re sipping coffee on the balcony or taking an early walk along the shore, the sunrise here is unforgettable. The house itself is well-maintained, spacious, and equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay. The host was welcoming.

Blue Marlin Beach front apartment

CourtneyRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Faith is a kind and responsive host. I always choose to stay with her when I am in Diani as I know I can count on her to always be available. The place itself is in the best location at Blue Marlin and next to Salty Squid, but also with fully equipped amenities. I would recommend to anyone!

If you're looking for a safe and secure place to stay in a good part of Mombasa this is it. Located in English Point, Nyali, the complex and apartment is with easy reach of everything you want to see. The view is great, the place is new and has a wonderful view.

Demure

KaraniRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
I had a wonderful stay at Marie’s apartment during my conference at PrideInn Paradise, Mombasa. The location was perfect—conveniently close to the venue yet peaceful enough for rest after long days. The apartment was clean, well-equipped, and exactly as it looks in the photos. The host was incredibly responsive, friendly, and made check-in and check-out seamless. Overall, I truly appreciated the hospitality and would gladly stay here again during future visits to Mombasa. Highly recommended!

LUXE NYALI Seaview 3BR, Beach, Pool- AC EXTRA COST

Nasra Mohamud AliRating, 5 stars2 months ago
had a rocky start with Bernice as I felt she was snappy at the first encounter but during my stay she was unbelievably on point with communication. she responded like minutes later and she fixed whatever that bothered me in less than 10 minutes. Yes, I said 10 minutes!!!! I don't believe there's any host better than her. she made my experience so much better in mombasa.
