Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Kenya

My family really enjoyed their stay. Evans was flexible when we ended up having more guests than we initially expected. Evans’ parents prepared very good food for my family at a fair cost. They were also very kind and accommodating. We shall definitely be recommending Evans’ place and will book again in future.

Lovely house, great pool, attentive but unobtrusive staff including a great chef. You need some reliable Tuk Tuk drivers to get to the beach and other places but you wouldn’t get a place of this quality/price by the beach. Both our families had an incredible stay at Watamu.

Deborah’s place is perfect for a getaway. The peaceful atmosphere and amazing views are great for relaxing. Don’t forget to carry your binoculars, for birdwatchers.

Jess place was ideal for our group of friends. The location was perfect and offered enough space for all 8 of us. The staff were the best humans who ensured our stay was beyond comfortable. This will definitely become a home away from home. I highly recommend staying and experiencing this home.

The property is even more beautiful than the photos. Esther and the staff made the stay utterly seamless and comfortable. It is incredibly peaceful and I look forward to returning.

A wonderful house in the most beautiful scenery with amazing staff, unforgettable stay :)

We felt very comfortable! The apartment was well equipped, clean and comfortable! We can highly recommend!

We had an absolutely delightful weekend stay with our family. The serene environment allowed us to hear birds chirping in the morning, much to our toddler’s excitement as she eagerly ventured out for bird-spotting. Sheila’s prompt responsiveness was commendable; when we encountered an issue with the fridge, she swiftly resolved it in no time. Her warm and friendly demeanor made our experience even more enjoyable. For anyone seeking a peaceful retreat from Nairobi’s bustling life to relax and rejuvenate, I highly recommend her place. The cozy ambiance and homey furniture made us feel right at home.  Additionally, the property’s convenient proximity to the main road made trips to Buffalo Mall or Naivas effortless whenever we needed to pick up supplies.

Liz was a good host. The flat was just as advertised and the beds were very comfortable. The location was ideal and there was good security for the building and access which made us feel safe

Perfect place to stay! Peter was wonderful too

We really enjoyed the space. It's located close to a Mall, making it easy to access supermarkets and restaurants. It's very tastefully furnished and feels very warm and homely. We will be back.

Alice is truly one of the warmest, kindest hosts I’ve ever had the pleasure of being hosted by… She was so gracious and kind to me, and welcomed me into her beautiful apartment. The apartment itself is spacious, comfortable, and felt just like home. High standard amenities, a very comfortable bed and beautifully decorated with all the furnishings… I need to also mention that the location of this apartment is absolutely superb, it is literally within steps at the Garden City Mall , with all kinds of coffee, shops, artisan restaurants , and a wonderful grocery store literally right there . This also seems to be a much quieter side of Nairobi , which I LOVED, but yet very easy to reach the main downtown area of bustling Nairobi. The apartment has a balcony, which was perfect for coffee and tea, and at night it’s very quiet it makes for a great sleeping, which I also loved. The bathroom is great, plentiful, hot water in the shower, and I love the kitchen also, with all the pots needed.

Perfect location for a long stay with easy access to restaurants and the mall is just a few steps away. I enjoyed my stay here.

The host (Damaris) and staff are super friendly and easy to work with. The apartment was clean and spacious. I was able to easily walk to the Yaya center, Lavington Mall and Jefferys sports center whenever I felt like it. The neighborhood is surrounded by an endless network of paved sidewalks. I really enjoyed hours of walking. I am looking forward to my next visit.

The place was great but it gets noisy in the early morning the security guards talking so loud and being that I was on the ground floor it was a little uncomfortable

Staying at Beatrice’s place was an absolute pleasure! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. Beatrice was incredibly communicative, friendly, and thoughtful, making the check-in process seamless. The space itself was exactly as describe;clean, cozy, and full of personal touches that made it feel like a true home away from home. I would highly recommend staying with Beatrice to anyone visiting the area, and I would absolutely love to stay here again. Thank you, Beatrice, for such a wonderful stay!

It’s 2 bedrooms apartment with comfortable beds. It’s very clean apartment and couple minutes a way from the beach. It’s has all the amenities I could as for such as utensils to cook and high speed internet. I’ll recommend anyone to rent. Thank you Maithya.

Very beautiful, clean and big apartment. I could not get enough of the ocean view. Beds were very comfortable. Loved the simplicity of the decor. Clean and clutter free. I was bare feet the whole time. They offer plenty of slippers ( indoor shoes) for both adults and children. That was a nice touch. Kitchen is big and well stocked with utensils. If you plan on cooking, basic spices like salt and pepper are not available. Laundry services are offered or you can DIY. There is access to an outdoor sink, hang line and pegs. There is a beach front hotel that plays music in the evening until about 11pm. I will definitely be back.

I had a great stay at Wendy’s, looks like the pictures and very clean. I felt safe and at home. she is very responsive and helpful. Would have stayed longer if the dates were available.

My stay at Maureen’s Marvel house was awesome. The place is as shown in the photos. The place is clean, with clean furniture, kitchen well equipped. Having two beds was especially helpful for what I needed, worked perfectly. Maureen is a super host! She was quick to respond to inquiries regarding her house like when water was not heating in one bathroom a maintenance person was there in an hour. She gave me information on different issues as I requested including transportation, as a Kenyan but not lived in that locality before this was super helpful. Having spent almost a month in the house she allowed for later check out since my flight was in the evening. I couldn’t have asked for a better host. The only disclaimer on location is transportation as Ubers sometimes would refuse to go. The location itself is quite accessible but since the overall area is known to have some challenges accessing they would hesitate. Describing how near the road the house is helped. Thanks Maureen.

the place was absolutely lovely and lookes just like the pictures. justinah was a great and a responsive hostess who reached out proactively and was always happy to help. I had a wonderful stay

Esther has been a wonderful person, very friendly and quick to respond. I will definitely come back.

L’appartement de Jackline est conforme à la description et aux photos, il est fonctionnel et très bien placé. La salle de sport, la piscine ainsi que la boulangerie sont de vrais avantages. Nous recommandons et si nous sommes de nouveau de passage à Nairobi, nous reviendrons! Merci.

Isaac was very Responsive and communicated very well. The place also matched my expectations and matched the pictures. Very good!
