Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Malindi

A beautiful place. Had wonderful time with my family. The place was clean and spacious. Zawadi the caretaker was lovely. Would recommend this place. Perfect for family.

An incredible house in a beautiful garden. We loved sitting outside by the pool and using the upstairs area. Host was very helpful and accommodating. We had a fantastic time. No complaints at all!

We had a good stay at Prudence's house. It's a modern, new, beautiful house. The pool is also suitable for night swimmers. It's very quiet. By tuk tuk you are quickly in the center of Malindi.

Very nice and comfortable.

WOW!! What a fabulous trip had by all!! 8 adults and 1 baby stayed for 10 nights at Shuma house. We had an incredible trip. Shuma is breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful, you really feel at one with nature here!. Shuma house itself is stunning, plenty of space for everyone, all the rooms are quirky, spacious and full of personality. The staff were all very welcoming and accommodating, and all work incredibly hard to ensure we are well fed and looked after. Martin, Shumas chef cooked us the most delicious meals night after night! Lots of choice and flexibility with meal choices/timings/allergies etc. Robert was amazing and tended to our every need, especially our daughter Elkies needs! Thank you all so much for making our trip to Shuma House absolutely fabulous! It was an emotional goodbye, but it certainly wont be the last!! We will be back!! Thank you! 🤩

We were genuinely happy and excited during our stay at Korosho House and the staff - Moses for showing us around and taking us on different activities, Francis for the very tasty food, excellent and accountability while doing the meal plans, Vivian for always keeping the house clean and being around. The view and the pictures on the website were upto par. Fun fact : When you go there plan to go for at least 2 weeks #many activities available. The only "disappointment "is that we only stayed for 3 nights next time we should definitely come for 7 nights. The pool was very clean, the compound was well kept, there is an outdoor patio along with an outside gym. The environment was serene and secure and the creek had a beautiful sunset view. Also games for kids and ocean related activities. The price is inclusive of the chef's services.

This is our 5th visit to The Beach House. We keep coming back for a bunch of reasons. Rehema, Ali and the rest of the staff are the best. The location right on the water with perfect views is unbeatable. Communication with Rory is consistently great. The top porch is some of my favorite square footage on the planet. And … have I mentioned how terrific Rehema is?

This is a wonderful home and we had a fabulous time. We came as 2 families of 4 (from London) + grandparents (from Nairobi) - so 10 of us in total. The house is beautiful - very charming and comfortable - and spills out onto the beach (via a private gated entrance). The kids loved playing in the small private pool and having daily walks out onto the reef in low-tide. The stretch of coastline the house is on is idyllic - about 20 min drive from Watamu town. The chef and staff are very attentive. We're all vegetarian and they handled that pretty well (though naturally they're more accustomed to a meat/seafood menu). As a family/group holiday venue, this is highly recommended.

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

My stay in Watamu, with my two friends, was very lovely. Yasmin, Antonio, and Mary made our stay very comfortable with their warm personalities and responsiveness to any queries we had throughout our visit. This was much appreciated when we needed assistance with things in the house. The open plan feel of the apartment with the strong breeze was something of a lifeline in the heat by the Indian Ocean and the effective A/C in all bedrooms was a blessing. The pool was clean and also very quiet which made mornings and evenings very peaceful to swim. The apartment is very well located and is just 5minutes, if that, to Watamu beach and also positioned close to the bank and nearby shops. I will be staying here again if and when I am on the coast, Gus (UK 23-29/08/24)

Murasi never disappoints. This was the second time we were hosted by him in his cosy apartment. We felt at home and were very satisfied with the service we received. Murasi is very understanding, hospitable and goes out of his way to make you feel at home. I strongly recommend him and will certainly be back in his apartment in the near future.

Felt at home in this house…very peaceful and spacious house and property. The pool is lovely and great for kids and really feels private. Paul and Evans work hard and make sure you are ok, but also give space so you have privacy. The fans worked well to keep us cool at night. The house is in a great location, not far from Lichthaus/Garoda Beach area. Emilie is a wonderful host and very accommodating and communicative. Only spent a couple days there, but it was a nice break for our family.

Joanna’s place was amazing. My daughter with 6 friends went there and Joanna was very supportive and welcoming. The house is large, breezy, in great conditions, with large en suite rooms. The girls had a cook who helped prepare breakfast and dinner for a very reasonable prize , the pool was cleaned daily and the place was excellent for groups of families or friends. I would highly recommend and we will definitely go back !

Lovely environment, peaceful neighborhood, and a great house.

We loved our stay at Nyumba ya Bubi! It is a beautiful home and located just a short walk to the beach. We were able to enjoy slow mornings and daily adventures at the beach. We recommend going on a local boat to see the star fish. The caretaker, Shaban, made our stay exceptional. He did a wonderful job & was very attentive. Laura was a very responsive and hospitable host. We enjoyed local cuisine at fine and just a short walk down the beach. The only downside for us what the construction happening on other villas was loud. Also, pack water shoes to wear since this part of the shore line is very rocky and there is a lot of seaweed. However the rest of our stay was great. We highly recommend this location!

Lynda's House is lovely! The setting is great, less than two minutes down a sandy path to the beach. The house had everything we needed for a family with two young children. The pool is lovely and had a large shallow section which our daughter loved. Fondo good us beautiful food and Joyce kept the house spotless. We are looking forward to coming back soon.

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.

This is the second time I have been a guest in this villa. It is perfect for me and my family, large rooms, beautiful garden, swimming pool and direct access to the sea. I would like to highlight the staff, always available, professional and very discreet. I hope to be able to return soon.

Very Responsive Host, amazing house managers and very clean and ready to help. Easy to access and would recommend anytime. Planning to come back again.

Loved this place. Rael, who manages the property, was a star. Would highly recommend.

I had an amazing stay in Watamu! The space was incredibly spacious, clean, and beautifully maintained. I absolutely loved everything about it—from the cozy interior to the spacious rooms. It's also perfectly located, just a short walk from the beach, which made the experience even more special. A truly lovely place that I would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area. I’d definitely come back.

The apartment was very very nice and the hosts are very helpful and courteous. My guest was very happy. Oasis village however is in a very bad state of repair…

Andrew and Daniela are amazing hosts… My family and I felt right at home from the get go. Their home is beautiful just like the pictures I would definitely recommend and we shall be back if you will have us…. Every place Daniela recommended did not disappoint , restaurants , activities , lounging etc .. Andrew made everyone happy on top of that he’s a great chef, if you love sea food you are in the right hands. Thank you both for hosting us…

We stayed with 6 people at the house. The house is at a stunning location, close to the beach (but luckily not next to the beach, would have been so loud). It is 1 of 5 houses on the large compound. It is surrounded everywhere by beautiful plants and trees. The house itself is very large and has enough space for all of us. We never sat inside, always outside, enjoying the breeze. There is a huge swimming pool available at 100m from the house and it is probably the most enjoyable thing of this place ( cause it's hot every day). Although the houses and surroundings are old glory (houses could use some proper renovation inside), we had Makini (cleaning lady) and Sheena (chef) who made our stay comfortable. Her food was excellent (like a private restaurant). Our kids liked them very much. Watamu beach is stunning, especially at low tide. Make sure you have shoes when going in the water. Locals will try to sell you things, be aware. Mohamed was a great host, very helpful in any situation.
