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.

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.

This house is huge and very well-decorated. Everything in it has so many details: paintings, furniture, lights, Mirrors, a bathroom, and glasses (made from used wine bottles) in the kitchen. There is a very large living room. We loved the lighting in the bedroom, which has a very soft design. The kitchen has everything one needs: an espresso machine, sandwich machine, toasters, you name it. Every bedroom has its own terrace, and our favourite one was the top terrace outdoor shower with a view of the ocean, so you are connected to the water. It is a very safe compound with a large pool. There are good restaurants nearby, and the beach next door is like a postcard. We were impressed that the whole house runs on solar energy.We highly recommend it and will definitely be coming back soon.
