Beachfront vacation rentals in Diani

Sandarusi is a beautiful house, set on our favourite stretch of beach - we'll be back! Thanks to Anthony and Rodgers for looking after us so well

great place inside the apartment and funny different on the outside facilities. lots of friendly people, private beach area. and great staff. Also good clean pools. Free beach chairs. we loved it

We had a great stay at the property and suitable for little children. Rachel the housekeeper welcomed us and came daily, the property had everything we needed for a long week end stay. The beach was a few meters from the house with an Askari (guard) on the gate and an Askari on the main gate so you felt safe. The pool is wonderful just what was needed to cool off in the heat. We chose to have a chef, John, who bought all the groceries and fish and prepared everything requested even during a power cut he produced our evening meal. Would definitely recommend this place.

Beautiful and large house, garden, and beach. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, in-house chef made delicious food, the beach was basically private and the owners communicated well with us. The location is fairly remote but even without our own transport, we were able to take a taxi to diani without a problem. The beach itself is fairly shallow so massive swims are not really an option but snorkeling works and it is still very beautiful. Would come here again any day. Thank you team!

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.

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.

This place gives a feeling you won't get anywhere else. me and my friends had an amazing time in the company of Rose and Halima. Thanks to amazing Scarlett who helped with literally everything.

Michael is a great host, very friendly and responds quickly to messages! From the outside, the apartment building looks a bit outdated, but its location is great and has direct access to the beach. The apartment itself looks good and has a nice balcony with beach view.

We spent a week in this apartment, and had a great time. The apartment and resort are very nice, and we were taken very well cared for by Emily the housekeeper, and Iddi the chef she recommended!

We had an incredible stay at this beautiful home — spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully equipped. The bedrooms were cool and comfortable thanks to the air conditioning and fans, making nights by the beach relaxing and restful. Irene (the housekeeper) and Abdallah (the chef) truly made our stay unforgettable. Their warmth and attention to detail made the house feel like home, and by the end of the trip, they genuinely felt like part of the family. The house has everything you need, including beach towels for both the semi-private pool and the beach, which is just a few steps away. Getting around was easy — we hopped on a tuk-tuk to explore the town and visit places like Stiltz, where we even got to feed bush babies! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily return in a heartbeat.

Almahali is one of those rare places where you feel so at home you don’t want to leave. The host Sean is a truly wonderful individual. Extremely accommodating and he is extremely responsive. Honestly I had a truly amazing time and I was so relaxed I’ll probably need a week to readjust myself back to reality. If my words aren’t convincing enough of how much I’d recommend the stay I can only say you need to try it yourself

Great big place, with tasteful furnishings and beautiful stained glass windows. Joseph is a great cook, and Rebecca friendly and helpful. It's a little closer to the house next door than we were expecting from the photos. The beach is stunning, and the shared pool on the beach side is great for kids. Recommended!

The apartment had everything i needed for a comfortable stay and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The grounds are absolutely beautiful with 2 pools to choose from, and great views looking over ocean. The swing seats near the bar area were my favourite. The location is great, it's located in the quieter end of diani beach but close to amenities. I'd definitely stay here again!

Found the place no problem on Google maps. John was very helpful and communicative. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The Wifi and a/c worked great and it was nice to have a full kitchen with stove, microwave, fridge, kettle, etc. Unfortunately, the washing machine was out of service during our visit, but John was very helpful in arranging to have our clothes washed anyway. The unit is inside what was built to be a resort, the infrastructure of which is a bit run down in parts, but didn't negatively impact the quality of our stay. The location was great with plenty of restaurants and shopping just a short tuk-tuk ride away. Overall, a great value for the area.

The apartment was great. It’s big and looks good. The building is called Heiner’s Sandbox. It’s in the approximately 6th row to the beach which is about 800m or 5 minutes walk to the beach. This information would be helpful to be included in the description. There’s a private beach access where I could also let my kite stay protected for a couple of hours. Kiting in front of the beach access was good.

If you're planning a trip to Diani, do yourself a favour and book yourself in this apartment! Don't be fooled by the outside appearance, whether you're looking for restaurants, the beach, swimming pools, clubs, everything is right there for you, just a few strolls away. Add to that the quietness, the cleanliness and the availability of the host and Nyawira's apartment is the go-to place. Definitely recommend!

The Lantana resort / gated community is one of the best of the Diani/Galu coast. Beautiful villas and apartments, surrounded by lush gardens, with an excellent restaurant and the beach just outside. Katrina’s apartment feels like staying in a villa thanks to its very quiet position on the ground floor near a swimming pool accessible directly through the garden. Plenty of space, comfortable and elegant. Great value, will come back for more!

The place was exactly as expected and Susan was the kindest and most helpful host I have encountered. It felt like I never left home.

Great place to stay. Private. Clean pool. Beautiful grounds. Easy walk to the beach. Very responsive hosts and housekeeper.

The host was nice. Very quick responses. The place is at a great location. We faced some small inconveniences during our stay but the host was quick to resolve. Would definitely recommend.

lovely house, amazing location, will definitely be back!

Apartment has good location. Communication with Peter was great, he arranged everything.

We were lucky to book the chalet next to the beach - with great outdoor verandah's and views of the beach and the ocean. There are about 4 or 5 other chalets in the same compound. Nice gardens. A quiter area of Diani Beach - not that many beach boys, and walkable to some nice beach side restaurants. The accommodation is basic, no-frills self-catering, which is what we wanted.

We had a wonderful time with the family. It is in a great location and Godfrey the housekeeper and chef was great
