Zawadi House - Diani, Eden Escapes
Our stay at Eden Escapes far exceeded our expectations! What an incredible find on the coast. From the moment we booked until we checked out, everything was impeccable. The space was even more beautiful than the photos - it was newly constructed, immaculate and stylishly decorated, and with every tiny detail thought of. The team at Eden Escapes made sure our stay was extra special - our space was always clean, the chef prepared outstanding meals, and everyone was constantly ready to provide little tips and advice about where to go or how to make our stay more memorable. The beds were cosy, the air conditioning was strong, the kitchen appliances were all new, and the towels were enormous and plush....hahah I can't say enough good things! Highly recommend - we'll definitely be back! Thank you to everyone! :)

Luxury Villa with Private Pool, Chef & AC (partly)
We were there as a group of 11 people (family and friends)to celebrate my 50th birthday. We had an amazing time. We felt we were in paradise. Amazing staff from chef Omar, Hemedi, and Abel our pool/security guy 🤣🤣. We were met with smiles every morning. Chef Omar didnt mind us invading his kitchen and cooking with him. The house is beautiful and the pool was the cherry on the cake. The beach is really 5 mins on foot. All you need can be done by hoping on a tuktuk or motorbike (that can be taken right outside the villa) and they will take you anywhere. Joris was amazing always available and ready to answer all our questions and take care of our requests. Thank you again for the wonderful memories. Hakuna matata

Fabulous Beach House with Pool and Tennis Court
Absolute rustic beach-front paradise and such a lovely team of staff! Ocean views are stunning and tennis court is a lot of fun. Jacquie is amazingly responsive and so helpful. Thank you so much!

Ocean facing luxury villa
The chef Daniel , the caretaker Josphat and the rest of the team did a great job taking care of us . The food was perfect every day every meal . Thank you Daniel. Josphat showed around the beach and mombasa town . Great people.

Little Canada Beach House
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.

Thyme Villa
We had a wonderful time at the Villa. The photos do not do it justice. Wish we’d booked for longer. Will definitely be back. Tabitha and Joseph were brilliant. Thank you.

Magnificent Kaskazi Beach House
Fantastic location for a peaceful getaway location. The beach has barely anyone and we had a great time enjoying the beach The garden, pool was spacious and huge. Children loved the space. We enjoyed the food prepared by the chef please note this is a separate cost/arrangement. Omari also organised our transfer from the airport and back. It was an approximate 2hrs drive from Mombasa international airport. I would highly recommend this location. The staff were very welcoming and so was the environment.

*Private Villa with Pool & Chef*
We had a wonderful stay here! Giada, Ibrahim, Adam, and Fatima were excellent hosts. The villa is well maintained and furnished with AC and water heaters in each room. The saltwater pool is spacious and perfect for cooling down after some time at the beach, which is just a 5-10 minute walk. Our hosts were very knowledgeable about the area and helped to arrange transportation and activities. The only difficulty we had was that the address listed brought us to the wrong location on the Uber app. The map location with the geographic coordinates is correct, though!

Sky Villa - Luxury Pool Retreat
The villa is large and beautifully built and decorated. Looks exactly like the pictures. Thomas was extremely accommodating of us - a larger than average group and we had the most wonderful time. Thank you for accommodating some of our more particular requirements. It made the space that much more enjoyable. The chef’s team Duncan, Brighton and Morgan were amazing - every meal was delicious. Grace and the housekeeping team kept the place meticulous. Overall one of my favourite holiday spaces so far!

Luxury 7 Bedroom Self-Catered Beachfront Villa
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!

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!

Azhari Beach Suite - Diani Beach , Kenya
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.

Njera House Watamu. A fully serviced private villa
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. !

Tequila Sunrise Villa - Diani/Galu Beach
Come for the views, stay for the food! What a beautiful spot with tons of space to spread out. The house and grounds were gorgeous, located on a pristine beach, yet relatively private. The staff were all super helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Pool was refreshing, yet surprisingly deep. Chef Nixon made us amazing seafood dishes all week. Only draw back was the lack of A/C in the bedrooms, which most comparably priced stays offer in the area. Check out the kite surfing, SUP, and kayaking rentals right next store. During low tide, head straight out half a mile to the sandbar and enjoy hunting for starfish!

Villa E'mocean
We had an absolutely peaceful and fun stay at Villa E'mocean! The house is stunning and well laid out. The bedrooms are spacious and the living areas are very open. The salt water pool is perfect for little ones to play in and has a perfect lap lane for those that want to really swim. The best part was the amazing staff that took great care of us from Chef Bony cooking meals just for us to Marita and Euralia keeping everything clean and organized. We are so glad we came and we hope to visit again!

Large Family Villa close to the beach
We stayed in Diani over New Years Eve (5 days) and it was fantastic. Joris is a great host, always helpful, replies very quickly and has lots of helpful recommendations for logistics (organized and pick-up from Mombasa airport) and Diani itself! The house was great as well, we were a group of nine adults and it was comfortable enough that everyone had their own space. The staff (chef, maid and house manager) are all extremely kind and considerate. We had a few food allergies in our group and the chef made sure to cook according to our needs. I can really recommend to ask him to cook local food, as it allows you to dive into Kenian cuisine. Overall we had a great stay and would come back in a heartbeat. Thank you very much to the host and staff!

Luxury 4BR villa in Ol-Pejeta | Nyikani House
Tina's place was an amazing setting for a family Christmas. It has easy access to Ol Pejeta, the KWS animal conservancy, hiking trails near Mt. Kenya, and Nanyuki town. Chef John and his assistant Mary are fantastic. The house manager Noel is incredibly helpful and supportive. We had an amazing time and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Taqwa Villa - Lamu, Shela
We spent 4 days at taqwa house and it s was amazing, Elijah the chef is an amazing chef, Peter the manager was very available. Only issue is that the house is a bit far (10min walking) from Sheila and the instructions are not very clear. We will come back

Asali House
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.

Palm Villa @ Red House
A cosy stylish and comfortable appartment with a cool, relaxed vibe. Very quiet and private but east to access all local amenities quickly. Highly recommend.

Swali Beach House - Beach-front House - Sleeps 10
This place was outstanding! Beautiful setting, beautiful house with guest houses for our large group. The staff at the house really made it so special for us. Shadrack cooked us amazing meals (we didn’t need to go out for meals!) and catered for dietary requirements. Hassan also made us feel so welcome and the place was kept very clean. We had a very relaxing time and would happily return.

Luxe 4 BdrmVilla Malindi own-compound&Private pool
Kipepeo House is very beautifully designed and very very private and peaceful. Away from the hustle of the town center. Accessibility is a bit of an issue, to catch a means of transport is a wee bit tricky. unfortunately, common food delivery apps don't deliver to the location, but one can always call any restaurant and get delivery of food. The 2 staff at the house are always ready at ANY time to assist in ANY way. All said, this place is like home away from home

Villa Lindenhof, 10 pers, cook and private pool
It is amazing! And the house is very nice. And the woman who makes the food can cook like crazy! Highly recommendable

Private Indian Ocean Beachside Villa Sleeps 8
The place is amazing. The Master bedroom is very big and spacious with a beautiful private balcony. The rooms are beautiful. The caretaker is very welcoming and helpful. The place has close proximity to amazing hotels and you have access to the amenities at Turtle Bay Resort. Would definitely come again
