I had such a lovely stay! Sophia was incredibly warm, kind, and responsive from the moment I booked. She made me feel truly welcomed and at home. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests. Highly recommend her as a host! The room was clean, cozy, and exactly as pictured, peaceful, with a beautiful breeze and great lighting. I slept so well and felt safe throughout my stay.

Had a great stay! The property is stunning — the plot is very spacious with a huge garden that’s well maintained. It’s the perfect spot to relax, enjoy a morning coffee, or just take a peaceful walk. The staff were another highlight — super friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. The room was clean, cozy, and had everything I needed. The whole place has a calm and peaceful vibe that made it easy to unwind.

Review: I recently stayed in Watamu at the beautiful villa called Airamjudi, and it was an exceptional experience. The villa offers all the comforts needed for a relaxing stay: the room was well-furnished, spacious, and equipped with everything I could ask for. The location is perfect for those looking for tranquility but still want the convenience of getting around easily. The area is peaceful and safe, and it’s very easy to move around thanks to the availability of tuk-tuks and motorbikes. Plus, the villa is located right in front of Fortamu Beach, which is easily reachable on foot—a huge bonus! One of the highlights of my stay was the fantastic pool, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere of the villa. I had an amazing time and will definitely return. I highly recommend Airamjudi to anyone looking for a perfect combination of relaxation, comfort, and natural beauty!

Extremely friendly and helpfull owner. Only 2 units to rent, so it´s quite and private. It´s a short walk to the beach. It´s luxurious, private pool is small but well designed. Definetely worth the price. Equiped kitchen available, so self catering is possible. Wish we could stay longer.
