Entire villa pool garden kitchens near amazing sea
We spent 2 amazing nights at Giulia’s House. Marica and Justin were so nice, helpful and friendly. They helped us a lot in many ways. Lovely villa indeed with cozy rooms, clean and large bathrooms and beautiful swimming pool & terraces. Highly recommend!

Family friendly, cozy 3bdr !
thank you Sara for the wonderful stay you offered me. The villa is very nice,spacious,bright and ventilated, a stone's throw from the beach. I appreciated Sulubu's smiling and thoughtful welcome, who is also a great cook. She made me a delicious dinner with fresh fish. The villa is truly ideal for a relaxing holiday for the family and I will be back soon to enjoy it with my loved ones.

Enjoy your holidays at Danisa Villa, Malindi!!
it was a fantastic stay at the villa. The place is even better than the pictures, Jhoseph helped us on everything and was very welcoming and friendly. I would recomend this place to anyone!! Hope to be back soon.

Elena House Luxury Family Holiday Coastal Villa
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Elena House. Kevin was super helpful, easy to contact and very quick in his responses. He also had plenty of very helpful tips about the area, things to do, contacts etc. The house and the pool were wonderful. Perfect for a big group and ac in every bedroom. The staff were extremely friendly and assisted us with everything we needed. The beach is just a short walk away and there are lovely restaurants a TukTuk trip down the road. We also recommend a boat tour to the beautiful sand islands. Highly recommended place!

Amani House
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.

Stay at Casa Bella. Romantic villa with pool views
Debra’s place was exactly as depicted in the photos, and the accurate maps made arrival hassle-free. The space itself is lovely, featuring a kitchen equipped with everything you might need. Jasmine, who manages the property daily, was absolutely charming. The shared swimming pool is stunning and conveniently located just steps from the house. Generally felt secure even walking back to the residence in the night. The beach, easily accessible via Marine Park Road, is just a short walk away. One minor note: While the pool’s easy accessibility was a plus, it posed a slight challenge with my 2-year-old daughter—temporary safety barriers could enhance the experience for families with young children. Overall, our stay was fantastic, and I’d highly recommend Debra’s place as the go-to choice for anyone visiting Malindi.

Baraka House, Beautiful Watamu beachfront location
Absolutely incredible villa, everything went above and beyond what we could have wanted. Fantastic location with incredible views of the beach and the sunset from the roof. Everything is spacious, clean and we felt very at home and in our own private oasis. Joseph, Dixon, Moses, Robert and the team were such a delight and always on hand whenever we needed and we were so grateful for everything they did to enhance our experience. Couldn’t recommend this villa more

Beach Front Villa - Watamu
Thank you Antonio and Yasmine for a lovely stay in Watamu. The staff in both villas made us feel completely at home. Chef Evans continued to impress us with his delicious meals, Maggie, Andrew and the staff in the 2nd Villa were all amazing. We would recommend AC units in the main villa as the rooms would get hot at night. The other villa has nice cool rooms because they had ACs in each room. Overall, a fantastic stay - great food, great location, great rooms and great fun in the swimming pools - day and night. Thank you for your hospitality.

Villa Piano B
We felt welcomed as a family, the staff was attentive, clean and kind. Excellent cook, to the point that we always preferred to eat at home! Serena, she guided and recommended us and never abandoned; courteous, helpful, professional but above all very quick to respond to requests and questions. Thank you, we highly recommend... we will be back

Pota Pota House , Malindi
The best bang for buck on Airbnb! The pictures don’t do the property justice… What a beautiful villa!! The team at the house was excellent, highly recommend staying here!

Ibambe Villa, plot 32, Watamu, Kenya
We had a wonderful stay at Ibambe Villa, one of the nicest properties on the Kenyan coast. We were with two families and 4 children. Kids friendly pool, with easy and direct access to the best stretch of beach in Watamu. The house is beautiful, clean, tastefully decorated, with spacious and comfortable bedrooms. Elias and the team were very helpful. Food was amazing. Would wholeheartedly recommend Ibambe to anyone!

Villa Designs,architect Marzia Chierichetti
A wonderful getaway with friends. The villa is beautifully appointed, spacious, and a great place to be away from the bustle of the big city, and even the small. It's close enough to arrange a tuk-tuk to get groceries or to a restaurant, but far enough away that you feel like it's an oasis. Friendly and accomodating staff, and Biliana's a very responsive host. Exactly what we were all looking for over the course of a long weekend, and an impressive find. Cheers!

Araliya House -Stunning Ocean Facing Villa
Amazing stay! Gorgeous spot on the ocean with lovely grounds. The pool was large and great for relaxing. There were trees and flowers, all beautiful and nicely taken care of. The staff was more than accommodating and the chef was AMAZING. Loved our stay.

VillaTamu fully staffed between Ocean and creek
We were a group of 6 adults. The home was filled with lovely open spaces that were tastefully furnished. Each room beautifully and thoughtfully designed. The gardens and pool were generous and the pool was nice and deep. We played ball which was a lot of fun. The staff were really excellent- friendly and accommodating and available whenever you might have needed them. The food was fantastic - we ate only fish and seafood with salads our whole stay. It was a beautiful location - although the small streets leading to the house were littered with a lot of small rubbish which might feel a bit surprising to new comers to the coast. The location felt safe and it was nice to have an Askari on duty all night. We’d visit again in a heartbeat. Thank you to the staff and to Armelle.

MICIO's house di Micky e Rooney
We had a great stay at Micio House. Michela and Rooney are great hosts and very friendly and so are the staff. The compound is a little oasis with a beautiful terrace, pool and garden with lots of trees and bushes. I highly recommend staying here if you're coming to watamu as a small group or couple.

Medina Palms three bedroom Beach Villa in Watamu
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

Low Up
Chini Juu is a wonderful oasis in Watamu. Set tucked away about 15 min from the busy town centre, but within easy reach by tuk tuk or boda boda. Lucy and Denzel, the 2 staff on compound, are very helpful and around if you need. Great amenities, well equipped kitchen, beach/swim towels at hand.

wonderful villa with service staff, pool and park
We had an amazing stay. The villa is spacious, and especially the outdoor pool area is perfect for relaxing. The furniture in the villa is a bit old and worn out, but it's not too big of a problem. The caretaker, Franklin, is very friendly and helpful with everything. The villa is located close to restaurants. I can highly recommend staying here for a relaxing vacation or getaway.

Amazing villa in Malindi
Such a beautiful place. The best was the outside area.

It was a perfect stay in all its aspects. The house is beautiful, a short walk from the sea and Mida Creek. Jackson the cook is really great. Excellent cleanliness. Highly recommended, we hope to be back soon.

J&R White House Mayungu,Malindi
My family and I had a great time at Rufus' house in Malindi. It was neat and tidy everywhere, we constantly got good service if we needed help. All in all, 100% worth the money!
