Location can't be beat : the sandbar is practically behind the accomodation, with a direct path to the (best) beach. The plot is big, so it's really nice to wander around all the plants and little paths. The double room we had was lovely, with view on the outside. Shout-out to the wonderful team who cooked amazing food for us and taught us Swahili. Very nice village close by, next to F-cafe, and good local food around. We had the best best time !

Beautiful resort grounds, lots of water sports (windsurfing, diving) & enjoyed the ping pong & giant chessboard. The pool was a great place to cool off n the shade. Rooms were spotless & very comfortable. The breakfast was great, as were the dinner options & woodfired pizza. Best of all was the friendly , helpful staff - they truly made our stay special!

This place was very spacious, clean, safe and modern with a very beautiful interior and exterior. We used the amazing pool everyday. The beach is a short walk away and the main road is even closer with motorbike taxis or tuktuks always available to can take you anywhere further. A cleaner was arranged twice over our 4 night stay which was perfect, also with fresh sheets and towels. A security guard is there every night, who was also a very kind man. If we ever come back to Watamu, we will be staying here.

We loved the place from the moment we arrived! It's a beautiful house with 4 bedrooms (we stayed on the main floor) a few steps from the beach. Very comfy rooms with king bed size and exquisite design. Staff is very friendly and helpful :) Besides the accommodation i'd like to do a special mention to the food&beverage services: breakfast was fantastic, delicious and complete. We also had some meals at Beba's and I highly recommend to stay in and enjoy the menu, everything we ordered was delectable! The chef is really really good!
