Seaside Escape
We had an amazing time at Faith's place! The house is spotless, well-organized, and filled with natural light. The balcony offers breathtaking views, and we thoroughly enjoyed relaxing at the beachfront pool. Faith's communication was outstanding—she was proactive and attentive from the moment we booked, throughout our stay, and even after checkout. She went above and beyond by providing helpful recommendations, including connecting us with a fantastic chef. This experience exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to staying here again in the future!

Cozy 2Bedroom Beachfront Apartment.
We had an exceptional stay at Aaron's place. The location was perfect (just by the beach), in a peaceful neighborhood yet close to attractions. The place was spotless and well-equipped. The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. Aaron was an excellent host, always available on phone and helpful. His sister made an effort to pass by to ensure we were fully settled and took us around the compound to show us the swimming pool, gym, and access gate to the beach. He came in handy when we needed a chef. The balcony view was a highlight for us, directly facing the beach perfect for enjoying morning coffee and sunsets. The amenities, including the fast safaricom Wi-Fi and a smart TV, were great. Overall, it felt like a home away from home, and I would highly recommend it.

Amani Eco Retreat

Beachfront Home
I really enjoyed my stay at this Apartment. It looked exactly like the photos..clean, stylish and very comfortable. Everything was well-maintained and thoughtfully set up. The location was great and near the beach.The host was super nice, easy to communicate with, and quick to respond to any questions. Overall, a smooth and pleasant experience. I’d absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place with a thoughtful host.

Marijani Sea Views Shanzu Beach Mombasa
I booked the house for a family holiday, and it was perfect , we truly felt at home. The house and rooms were clean, and we had a wonderful time. Lena and Winnie were incredibly helpful during our stay, assisting us with everything we needed and making our experience unforgettable.

Two Bedroom apartment- 5 mins walk to the Beach.
Really enjoyable stay. Betty and the other ladies at Ella Homes were so helpful. Very spacious apartment with excellent facilities. Only slight negative is the lack of hot water in the kitchen and bathroom sinks also no mixer in the showers so it's either cool or very hot once you put on the water heater

2 Bedroom Luxury Flat in Mombasa, Kenya.
I definitely would recommend a stay in this apartment. Steve was very friendly and helpful from the very first contact to our check out. The flat is very well situated, with a lot of space, comfortable, fully equipped, good and stable wifi etc., and an amazing view from the big balcony to the ocean. The apartment is also placed close to everything, the sea, the City Mall and nice restaurants. When I get back to Mombasa I will definitely book the same apartment again, if it’s available. Thank you very much Steve, for a very pleasant stay :) Claus

White House, beach cottage
We lived our stay at the White House cottage. It exceeded our expectations and we would love to return. We are a family of four and it was perfect. The staff was so warm and helpful. Definitely hire the local chef recommendation. We had delicious food in the convenience of our own veranda looking at the ocean. The location right on the beach with the private, expansive grounds was perfect. The house has incredible views and is extremely comfortable. I highly recommend. If you have a big group, try to rent the White House next door and have an amazing holiday with family or friends.

Fig House
Our stay at fig house was on all accounts flawless. The property sits on the edge of a very peaceful creek, with varying sea / creek views from its many vantage points. The house itself is wonderfully spacious with beautiful finishings and an enormous and aesthetic swimming pool. It was a joy to wake up and swim in the pool or the creek everyday, and then to enjoy meals prepared by the highly skilled staff (every meal was top quality). The local hangout spot less than a 10 minute walk from the house provides a uniquely jungly and relaxed atmosphere with a small shop fully stocked with anything you could feasibly need. There is also a coffee bar which serves very tasty local beers and smoothies, and a small restaurant / event space with delicious food. Freddy is a top host, very accommodating and responsive, and the house itself is certainly a stand out rental on the Kenyan coast, and sure to be a family for us moving forward. Thank you!

Stunning Rooftop House only 2min from Diani Beach
Perfect vacation home for 6 people. Bedrooms had comfortable beds and great AC! Lots of space to spread out. Nice being in the resort for the service options. Great location near the beach! Patience was very responsive if we needed anything.

Luxury Ocean Front Family Villa Tiwi Beach Kenya
What a gorgeous place. If you’re an animal lover, this is the best place to be in the Diani area. Monkeys everywhere on the veranda, in the garden, by the pool! Gorgeous birds. Starfish island nearby. Adequate snorkeling. I was initially worried because the Honeymoon Tent seemed like a better choice online, but to us, Ocean View villa has the most to offer of the properties on the compound! Lovely as a couple or for a group you know intimately (the rooms are quite porous if sharing the home). Mike was incredibly helpful and flexible, with an incredible life story. Martin our chef was warm and went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. Would definitely come back again. PS would recommend ordering the shopping ahead of time, can be a bit hectic to do it on the night of your arrival.

Mzuri Beach House - Diani - Kenya
The house is beautifully presented with 4 enormous double bedrooms, two with equally enormous balconies. The pictures do not do the property justice. Mzuri House is part of a well run little complex. Security is ever present and you feel perfectly at ease at all times. The house feels very private and is 20M from the quieter Galu Beach, an extension of Diani beach. Sails and Salty Squid restaurants are excellent and only 100M. However the main attractions at Mzuri House are Liz the housekeeper and Shee the chef. Both were amazing hosts. Liz will communicate with before you arrive. She will arrange everything for you from airport pick-ups to restaurant bookings as well as keep the house spotless. Shee the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and lunch and / or dinner. All meals were extraordinary local dishes that our usually difficult to please 3 kids devoured! We can not recommend Mzuri House enough and in particular Liz and Shee.

B3 at Diani Beachalets
I enjoyed with my family stay at John's place, beachfront cottages.

MilaMax Beach villa Diani
The home was easy to get to turn right immediately after Bahari Dhow on to the cabro road. The pin on the page takes you elsewhere. Bit once you get there the staff are very friendly, responsive and helpful. Check-in was quick and easy. The home is breezy, clean and feels very homely. The pool is very clean. The chef gave us a shopping list based on our menu choice and was flexible throughout. Shamila herself was also available on chat and very responsive even though she was not in the country. There are fans ans ACs in every room. The beach is practically 2 minutes walk from her gate. Just the usual vendors trying to sell you stuff. I will def be back.

Mawimbi Cottage Shamsa collection Beachfront Galu
Anna was a great host and it was so lovely to have our chocolate Labrador join us and enjoy the location right by Galu Beach. Anna has 2 really cute ridgebacks who are super friendly and got along with our dog. The house was super cute and clean, and perfect for a couple with a dog. Walking distance from Salty Squid and close to a kit surfing school as well. It was slightly hot during the night, but Anna provided an extra fan which did wonders! Anna was a wonderful host and super friendly and helpful, Thank you for a great stay, we hope to be back soon :)

Seaview Nyali, 3BR for 6pax
The apartment is close to Nyali City Mall, if you cannot find a TukTuk you can actually walk, just 5 minutes. But usually TukTuks are available. This is an extremely clean apartment, evrything is in very good order. One of the main advantages is the calm location, hardly any noise at night. I have stayed in other apartments with a lot of noise (traffic and other) at night. Communication was superb. Minor issues (and they were really minor) were solved immediately. The view from the 3 balconies is amazing, you can see the ocean. Beaches are within minutes by TukTuk. Netflix and Amazon Prime accounts are available. I will definitely consider booking again when I come back, even though the price is a bit on the high side.

Luxe apt |sea view|Ac|@antalya nyali
I had an absolutely incredible stay at this apartment. The view alone is worth every penny you can see almost the entire Mombasa coastline from the windows and balcony, making each sunrise and sunset unforgettable. The apartment is spacious and beautifully kept, with a modern yet cozy ambience that made me feel right at home. It was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities I could ask for. Additionally, the location was perfect, with a nearby mosque and a walking distance to all shops, supermarkets you name it; adding a unique cultural touch and peaceful vibe to the neighborhood. The combination of breathtaking views, cleanliness, and a relaxing atmosphere made my stay truly special. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone visiting Mombasa! Thank you to Soha abodes and her entire team i had an amaizing stay.😃

EMERALD 1-kikambala
The first thing that strikes you about the place is the amazing view of the sea... absolutely gorgeous! Couldn't get enough of the view really 😍. Then the house is so spacious and airy, with loads of light from the large windows. Thomas completes the equation, he is so friendly, helpful, calls when he wants to inform you of something, and was absolutely flexible both for check-in and check-out. I would recommend Thomas's place anytime to anyone... and I will definitely be back.

Chalbi residence at Sultan palace beach resort
This was probably the best AirBnB I had been to. The place was beautiful, the views were amazing and the proximity to the swimming pool and the beach were just what we needed. Gumato was very responsive to all our needs and recommended an amazing chef who honestly overfed us! Once or twice the electricity went out but the back up generator came on almost instantly. I can't wait to get back here. I'm giving this place a 10/10 rating! I couldn't ask for more!

A 3-Bed Peaceful Retreat near Vipingo Ridge Golf
We stayed at Samuels place and were very satisfied with the host’s responsiveness and attention to detail. There is also a small supermarket on the premises that allowed us to get a few groceries and food as we situated ourselves. Considering the location, there were two power outages during our short stay. Though it is not the hosts fault, and they did keep us updated during this period, it is worth mentioning. All in all, we would definitely recommend the place for your next trip.
