Amani Eco Retreat
Nice , Calm,peaceful the most serene place everyone should visit A home away from home

Kiboko Bay Abode: Lakeview Apartment-0792877152
The cozy apartment was exactly as advertised. Faith met us at the building and got us situated in the apartment. We did use the mini-fridge to keep some items cool but didn't cook. The fan in the living room made things comfortable there; we might suggest a fan in the bedroom, too. We had a little trouble getting the mosquito netting panels to overlap completely at the sides of the bed. The view from the rooftop is lovely.

Not much to add to my previous reviews. My favourite place at Cowrie Shell. 100% recommend.

Apartment in front of the pool and a stone's throw from the sea
Silvia as well as the cook Gibson were very friendly and accommodating. Silvia always responded very soon and was always happy to help with any questions or requests. Overall the best Airbnb experience I’ve had so far. The kitchen was properly kitted out and had everything. The location was great and very clean. Just a very short walk from the beach. Gibson was an amazing cook and housekeeper and we could always reach him, very humble guy. The food was always fresh and cooked from scratch. Very very happy with the stay and would always recommend! Thank you so much for making it so comfortable!

Luxury Creek Front Villa
Our stay was stress free and Jess’s team was very responsive. The property is beautiful as is the view. Would recommend this stay for larger groups since it’s a fairly large house. All in all, we had an amazing time

Kilimandege House (Kilimandege Sanctuary)
This beautiful, historic home was everything we hoped it would be and more. Millie was very friendly and helpful. We all wished we could have stayed longer.

Magical 4-bed staffed Watamu house with epic views
This place is definitely worth your time looking at. I thought I’d miss being right at the beach, but honestly, we looked forward to coming ‘home’ to Joseph and David and the calm, quiet, cool of Ruby House. We spent time reading, playing games, reconnecting and resting, as well as swimming and bobbing in the creek - listening and watching birds. It is so peaceful - chatting with fishermen, and just taking in the surroundings. We went for a few day trips- the Gede ruins are well worth an hour of your time, sand dunes north of malindi were great. And we LOVED Garoda Beach - much less seaweed and less busy. I could not speak more highly of the staff - they were present but not, flexible, understanding and really wanted to help make your time enjoyable. The rooms were so comfortable. I think it may be a little hot in the very hot month, but it gets a lovely breeze and there is always the one room to escape into for an afternoon nap if necessary - but we didn’t need to do this. Thanks!

Kiwayu Bay House, a unique experience
Thanks again Alec!

Ka 'Makuti Villa
Such a lovely home, well kept and clean. Very welcoming and so private. Will definable come back.

The Lake House at Sungura
We had a wonderful stay at the lake house! So calm and so close to the nature. At night we sat by the fireplace listening to the sounds of nature and watched the hippos just outside. We really loved staying at the lake house and would love to come back some day.

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 :)

Aly’s place in Nyali was awesome! Super clean, beautifully decorated, and even better than the pictures. The vibe was just right, and the location made it easy to explore. Aly was a great host—super responsive and made sure we had a smooth stay. Definitely worth booking again!

Patch by the Ocean, a 2 bed beach front apartment
We loved our 10 day stay at Susan's place - so much so that we are already looking to book again! Its a fabulous location, next door to a host of great beach restaurants, coffee shops and food stops. It was perfect with young kids, we could run out to the pool and beach (with is connected to the property) and also have AC in the house for when we needed rest. The flat itself is clean, comfortable (especially the beds) and has everything you'll need! It exceeded our expectations and we have already recommended to friends.

Lovely 2-bedroom Condo with a heated pool and GYM
Great stay, good location. No complaints at all. Good value, too.
