Villa vacation rentals in Great Rift Valley

Kevin’s place was so great we decided to go back again for another few days, towards the end of our trip. Everything was impeccable, and Kevin was very attentive and flexible, allowing us to have a late check out which suite our travel needs perfectly. Rose cooked a few times for us this time and her food is fabulous, we highly recommend her services, plus she was very friendly, patient and very accommodating. Another great stay at Kevin’s place, it’s home away from home. Kevin a great bloke, friendly, chatty, helpful and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again and hopefully one day we get to meet Kevin in person for a beer. Thank you, Julz and Mina ☺️.

Villa Kaya is a stunning place. The house is beautiful and clean and the pool and garden are gorgeous. Florence, the housekeeper was a delight and it was a fantastic getaway for my friends and I. Location is slightly off the main road but once you enter, it’s a paradise that’s not more than 10 minutes from all the fun spots. Serene, clean and with all the needed amenities. There is a guard at night, gardner and housekeeper available. Due to the lush gardens expect one or two tiny harmless guests (moths, centipedes) around the property. Kathryn was super responsive and it was the perfect staycation for my friends and I.

The house is a little paradise overlooking the Creek and mangrove. all rooms are amazing and Chef Henry's food was excellent. I would recommend it without a doubt

Anne’s place was modern and clean. The staff was amazing and went over and beyond to accommodate us whether it came to booking tours/ excursions or something we randomly needed around the property. I would 100% recommend if you're looking for a balance between remote and relaxation but close enough to get to the main attractions of the island.

Our stay just couldn’t be better! Nina’s place is a little paradise, the house is very spacious and clean, with a lot of areas to hang and relax. The pool was definitely a highlight for me, it was so nice to start the day with the swim and also to read a book floating on a mattress. The house is located a short walk to island’s most beautiful beach Shela and also just 5 min from the harbor. But all this would not be the same without chef’s Daniel fresh and local cooking. He treated us with fresh seafood dishes every day and his cooking was way better than any of the restaurants on the island. Already planning my return and can get boy recommend this place to anybody traveling to Lamu.

We had such a lovely stay in the villa, it was so peaceful and luxurious. The food was excellent and the staff went above and beyond for us

Great place to stay. Secluded, private and wonderfully located. Kitchen staff superlative. Pool great for all the family. Very roomy.

We had the most wonderful time at above the moon. Such a beautiful house. The chill out area by the pool is a such a vibe to hangout during the day! The staff at the house are all so nice and helpful and the chef if top class. Some of the best food we have ever had! Only positive things to say about this house. Lastly the host Rachel who is super responsive and very accommodating. Kudos to the above and moon team.

We discovered our Eden, where the reality of the place exceeds the listing description. A beautiful discovery with a perfect balance between the modernity of the amenities, the design and the perfect harmony of the place with its natural environment (tropical fauna and flora) around the theme of eco-responsibility. The view from the outdoor terrace is breathtaking and transports us to a waking dream. As for the hosts, Karl and Salha, it's hard to do better. Always attentive, trying to find solutions to make our stay easier and what responsiveness. Perfect communication and additional services offered to further improve the experience (driver, local guide, cook, home massage, car rental brought directly to the accommodation...). In short, the best compromise between the services of a palace and the tranquility in the well-being of a private rental. We didn't want to leave, little paradise

Enjoyed our stay The villa is as described in the photos and in fact better in real life due to lovely touches in the villa. The villa is new with all furnishings , utensils , cutlery of a very high standard . So much so that we tried to buy their rugs and blankets. The outdoor area is well equipped with sun beds, sofa, dinner table fans and the pool is good size ! All aircon and fans work very well which is a must in Diani. Air con in all rooms and in living area. We hired their chef - Siiraj who was very skilled and could make range of meals and was able to make chocolate cake for a birthday in our group. Was able to meet all our requests. The chef was also able to arrange fresh fish to be delivered to the villa. Not beachfront but beach is only a 2 mins away so easily accessible. Beds are comfortable and all 3 bedrooms of very good size. All staff on site - helpful and gets cleaned everyday. P.s. they provide filtered water too which was handy.

INCREDIBLE stay!!! One of the best Airbnbs I’ve visited. The home and grounds are even more beautiful than in the pictures. The hosts Abdul & Ramadhani are so responsive and very helpful organizing local rides, tours, airport transfer, etc. Food was delicious and much enjoyed. We will certainly stay again if we find ourselves back in Zanzibar!

Absolutely beautiful! Location is perfect. The house is stunning, with plenty of space for large groups, a lovely pool and breathtaking view. The staff were amazing and took great care of us. An unforgettable holiday!

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!

It’s hard to imagine, but these photos can’t do this property justice. It is truly beachfront, and is absolutely romantic and beautiful. If you have an issue with wildlife, especially pesky monkeys, or you aren’t comfortable in an outdoor environment, or you don’t want to have to walk down a path through the jungle to get to your romantic hideaway, nestled in the jungle and looking out over a pristine, white sand beach, then perhaps this is not for you, but for us…? It was absolutely magical. Nicole is an amazing host, and everyone who works there is kind and caring. The service was excellent —and do not miss the breakfast. This property far exceeded our expectations, and truly lived up to everything we had hoped for.

Natalia’s lodge was an amazing stay in an incredible location that will likely show up in my dreams now that we spent some time here. Me and 9 friends had an amazing time, with every aspect taken care of by Natalia. The chef was incredible and made amazing meals constantly throughout our trip, and the housekeeper kept the rooms super clean. There was an issue with the showers unfortunately but Natalia stayed in constant communication with us and even came to the Airbnb late at night to support. The issue was resolved and she continued to oversee repairs to ensure future guests don’t face the same thing. My birthday also fell around the time of our stay and she made sure to make it incredible, even providing a wonderful mango cake. Natalia and the staff at the lodge made our Zanzibar trip and we would love to come again!

Beautiful house with everything you need! Mc Donald and his team provided delicious meals tailored to size. We loved the first day . Lovely swimming pool and relaxing opportunities. And everything was perfectly fine! Recommended. !

Had a great stay. Food was amazing… Tom and his crew did such a great job and were very friendly. The location was very private and so peaceful. The weather is of course hot, but the architecture really allows so much breeze to flow through plus all the rooms had fans. Would be glad to come again!

It was amazing ! The house is beautiful, the butler and the chef are amazing. Joris is very responsive. I recommend 100% !

Byron and his assistants were very responsive and helpful with every aspect of our stay. It is a beautiful place, nice pool and open layout, very short walk to a nice beach and restaurants, stores.

We were initially worried because the house is a bit far from the city center, but we’re so glad we chose this place. It’s truly a luxurious and clean neighborhood, full of greenery! We felt just like we were in our own home. Check-in was very easy. The house was clean. There were bicycles available, and there was a large supermarket within walking distance. If I ever come back to Arusha, I would definitely stay in this house again. Thank you!

The house was cozy and very private in an idyllic location steps from the beach. The staff, Elizabeth and Duca are wonderful and made our stay so comfortable. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating. Can’t wait to come back.

Beautiful property in the heart of Paje, walking distance from the beach and restaurants. The host and his team were very helpful and responsive. I would definitely stay there again.

This is truly a one of a kind villa- perfect for long term stays as the rare feature of uninterrupted solar electricity is a luxury in Zanzibar. Arnaud is a kind stalwart host, ready to attend to the villa at anytime. Anne is superb at sweet efficient communication. They really know how to make you feel at home. The 24 hour Maasi attendant and 3 cool dogs ensure a safe stay. The villa is situated perfectly between Kendwa and Nungwi beaches, two pristine beaches which can be reached in a short walk or ride. Grocery stores are a quick walk as well. Barakana restaurant delivery has plenty of yummy menu choices. The villa is perfectly equipped with spacious rooms and ample shelving. The bathrooms are fantastic! Extra large showers with hot water and Kardashian luxury disappearing sinks- allowing space for an entire family's toiletries. The rooftop pool penthouse lounge is marvelous, offerring panoramic sunrises and sunsets and exquisite star filled nights under the African sky.

I have to say that from start to finish the help and consideration taken by Jasmin was outstanding. The actual location look and feel of the Air BnB was something to be hold and we didn't realize that it was across two houses with pool in between. The staff of the house also need mentioning as their service, attitude and attentiveness towards their clients was outs standing. What a fantastic time we had at this location and would travel back again and again.
