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.

Luxury Villa with Private Pool, Chef & AC (partly)
It was amazing ! The house is beautiful, the butler and the chef are amazing. Joris is very responsive. I recommend 100% !

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.

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
Nous recherchions une immersion au Kenya et nous avons choisi cette grande villa isolée située à Likoni pour l’absence de touristes et son extraordinaire vue sur le lagon et shelly beach . Nous nous y sommes sentis très bien. Josephat , Leaky et Timoth ont veillés à l’entretien de la maison et nous avons engagé le chef cuisinier Daniels pour préparer certains repas . Si vous souhaitez vous deplacer au restaurant, en safari , dans une boutique ou allez à la plage , il vous faudra un vehicule ou appeler un tuk-tuk mais si vous souhaitez vous reposer, la grande piscine et sa vue extraordinaire participeront à vos vacances tres reussies. Il y a des moustiquaires et de l’air conditionné dans toutes les chambres.

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.

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

Ibis House - Diani, Eden Escapes
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.

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!

Luxury 5Bdrm Malindi Villa | Pool & Outdoor Space
This villa is the epitome of serenity. My friends and I had an incredible stay here. All amenities and restaurants are easily accessible if you prefer dining out, but the in-house services were truly exceptional. The staff, chef, and masseuse provided some of the best experiences in the area. Having in-house laundry services was a major convenience. If you're seeking a quiet and peaceful place to unwind, this is it. Kudos to the host for their quick responses, which made the check-in and check-out process seamless.

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
Prachtig huis met alles erop en eraan! Mc Donald en zijn team zorgden voor heerlijke maaltijden op maat. We hebben genoten van de eerste dag . Heerlijk zwembad en relax mogelijkheden. En alles was piekfijn in orde! Een aanrader. !

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!

Stunning Beachfront Villa – near Mtwapa, Mombasa
I my girlfriend and 4of our friends came to kikambala to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday and it was an unforgettable experience. The villa is located right on the beach, with an open design that’s out of this world. You won’t believe how breathtaking it looks until you see it yourself. The views, the breeze, the layout ,everything was just perfect. The staff were incredible. The chef recommended by the charlotte was exceptional. We felt well taken care of throughout our stay. Even with the property being right on the beach, the villa felt very safe and secure, which made the whole experience relaxing. Charlotte was fantastic host. — very responsive and helpful. She even allowed us a late check-out at no extra charge, which was a huge relief since our flight was later in the evening. It was a 10/10 experience. We will definitely be back.

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

Villa Ndoto
Dejlig bolig, super fine værelser og et godt område. Vi havde en super god weekend i Diani.

Swali Beach House - Beach-front House - Sleeps 10
Grosses Anwesen mit schönem Pool und herrlicher Gartenanlage direkt am Strand mit traumhaften Blick auf die Palmen und das Meer. Wir wohnten zu viert im Haupthaus im Obergeschoss mit zwei Schlafzimmern und sehr grosser überdachter Terasse, die die Schlafzimmer verbindet. Die Küche war hervorragend, im Vorfeld muss man bis auf die Meersfrüchte das Meiste selbst einkaufen. Drei sehr nette Bedienstete, die nebenan in einem kleinen Haus wohnen, umsorgten uns wunderbar. Den Beachboys sollte man nichts geben, dann verschwinden sie auch nach einiger Zeit. Den Bediensteten gaben wir je 2000 ks. Trinkgeld.Alles in Allem: paradiesisch.

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!

Villa Lindenhof, 10 pers, kok en privé zwembad
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
Lovely stay. House is a walk to the beach (not beachfront - Airbnb seems to sort these homes incorrectly when you search) but the house staff are absolutely incredible. They went above and beyond to make our stay beautiful.
