Beachfront holiday rental in Great Rift Valley

The house is a little paradise overlooking the Creek and mangrove. all rooms are amazing and Chef Henry's food was excellent. I would recommend it without a doubt

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!

Absolute rustic beach-front paradise and such a lovely team of staff! Ocean views are stunning and tennis court is a lot of fun. Jacquie is amazingly responsive and so helpful. Thank you so much!

Che bellezza! Debra's gorgeous flat is precisely how it looks in the photos: airy, spacious, clean, quiet, with a beautiful view of the beach. What's more, my partner and I ran into an issue at the airport and had to push our trip back a day—and I've never known an AirBnB host to be more empathetic or responsive. Then there's Jackson. More than a caretaker, Jackson is deeply kind and hugely helpful host—a priceless concierge. With unfailing calm and charm, Jackson sorted us out with a tuktuk driver (request Salim!), an incredible chef (request Francis!), and when we left something behind, went above and beyond to have it shipped to Nairobi. AirBnB is full of magical properties, and I've been blessed to enjoy a fair few, but the experience that Jackson offers at Debra's flat in Malindi is one of a kind.

The house was cozy and very private in an idyllic location steps from the beach. The staff, Elizabeth and Duca are wonderful and made our stay so comfortable. The hosts are very responsive and accommodating. Can’t wait to come back.

Amazing location- loved the staff. Felt so cared for. You cannot beat this place. Just so beautiful- safe- private! Will be back

Really wonderful place with a wonderful host! Strongly recommend

Wesa Beach House is a terrific, secluded stay in the heart of the Swahili coast. Definitely recommended. The house: is well cared for, and linens, fixtures, and the house itself is well maintained against the sea air. We comfortably slept 3 adults in separate rooms and 4 young children. The staff: Charles and the staff are absolutely fantastic. Incredibly responsive, on time, and proactively communicate. The food every day was incredible (with surprises like crab pizza!). We enjoyed the massages as well. Everyone went above and beyond to take good care of us. The pool: beautiful temperature--we spent hours swimming every day The beach: Wesa House is the only modern house on the beach. However the beach is a busy local fishing area, with the bustle of the fish trade. The beach does have a good amount of seaweed, but just a few feet into the reef it's a gorgeous clear-water swim in knee-deep water. It was perfect for our young kids.

The beach cottage was absolutely amazing. My mum and I had an amazing three nights and we loved every second of it. The cottage is right next to the beach but the best beaches are about 10mins walk and another is about 10mins with the uber boats. Julius and Fondo made us delicious Swahili meals and their hospitality was top notch. Lamu is nothing like any other beaches in Kenya…it’s a must visit!

Love the apartment. Inside a great, safe complex right by the beach. Great for a family stay

Wir hatten 5 nächte gebucht und es hat uns so gut gefallen, dass wir 2 nächte verlängert haben. Das haus ist sehr schön gelegen die aussicht auf die creek und das meer ist atemberaubend. An diesem ort kommt man sehr einfach zur ruhe. Tom und die crew machen einen fantastischen job. Das essen war weltklasse. Obwohl sie sehr zuvorkommend waren hatten wir immer genügend privatsphäre. Wir haben uns sofort zuhause gefühlt. Ein richtiges juwel an der küste von kenia. Nach der buchung haben wir ein sehr gutes dokument mit möglichen aktivitäten, kontakten und informationen zur umgebung bekommen. Der spatziergang bei low tide in der creek ist wunderschön. ;) enjoy

This was such a lovely little getaway! We are coming back in August with friends and can’t wait! The photos don’t do it justice! It’s a Swahili paradise! Margaret went above and beyond! Ilya has decorated the house in a simple, yet homey Swahili style! Everything was just as described! We ate at the restaurants in walking distance, enjoyed the beach and pool and just chilled and relaxed at the house! Perfection!

Great spot in the heart of Mombasa, easy access to the beach with a lovely pool. The house itself has everything you need, soft sheets and fans that keep the room cool.

Our stay just couldn’t be better! Nina’s place is a little paradise, the house is very spacious and clean, with a lot of areas to hang and relax. The pool was definitely a highlight for me, it was so nice to start the day with the swim and also to read a book floating on a mattress. The house is located a short walk to island’s most beautiful beach Shela and also just 5 min from the harbor. But all this would not be the same without chef’s Daniel fresh and local cooking. He treated us with fresh seafood dishes every day and his cooking was way better than any of the restaurants on the island. Already planning my return and can get boy recommend this place to anybody traveling to Lamu.

Kjempefint hus med stort basseng! Perfekt for en storfamilie på tur. Kokken lagde alle måltider for oss, og vi var veldig fornøyd med maten. Helt herlig! Esther var der hver formiddag og rengjorde huset. Vi bestilte også massasje via henne, og det kom en hyggelig dame og masserte oss på stedet. Bassenget ble rengjort hver dag. Fint med gangavstand til stranden. Huset ligger i en gate med vakthold hele døgnet, både mot stranden og mot gaten. Alt føltes veldig trygt. Mikhail svarte raskt på henvendelser i forkant, og hjalp oss også med et legebesøk på grunn av en skade i løpet av turen. Vi kommer gjerne tilbake ved en senere anledning. Anbefales på det sterkeste!

We had a wonderful 4 nights stay with family of 5. The owner responded quickly, send us very detailed information of all you need to know and arranged pick up at Mombasa airport. The staff is very friendly, helpful and at the same time gives you privacy. Reuben the chef provided us splendid meals, we especially enjoyed all the fresh seafood!Recommended is to do shopping before arrival because bigger supermarkets are 40 minutes drive away. Fruits, vegetables, water, fish, soda’s are easy to get in the village but for more luxurious groceries you have to go to the bigger supermarkets. You can book the pick up from the airport with a shopping stop in Nyali. Neen Tree is a lovely family house with marvellous view and direct access to the ocean. A friendly monkey family lives on the property and are fun to watch. Besides the pool we loved going snorkelling on the rif using the equipment from the house. For transport we used Tsuma with a comfortable 7 seater which we used for a Kilifi trip.

What a beautiful beautiful place. The pictures don’t do the house justice and Tiwi is a beach that is still as gorgeous as it was 30 years ago. No beach boys, no grief just lovely people everywhere. We snorkelled, swam in the pool, swam in the sea, played on the beach, rock pool hunted on the reef. Saw amazing starfish, moray eel, box fish and 3 types of sea hare as well as the “usual stuff”. We missed turtles hatching by 24 hours, but watched one come up to lay her eggs . The perfect place to spend a few days with the family chilling, talking and reconnecting. The verandah at the front is the best hub place. Then food - Anthony creates magic in the kitchen. Fresh fish, fruit and his tempura squid with coriander and soy sauce was delish. Fred the taxi driver is great and as a mixed family of 6 we could be as active and busy or not as we chose. The best way to end a trip to Kenya and as a previous resident it was perfect -Asante Tanya xx

I love this bnb! this was my 2nd stay and won't be the last. whenever am traveling to mombasa this is my go to spot. the bnb is beautiful the decor is kool unique and stylish . the seller is the view!! it's what really draws me there each time. loaded with amenities pretty much everything you can think of is there. very comfortable sofa seating and bed. I literally have no complaints the only thing that could make it better is if it was in a more happening area but it's easy to get around with ubers. the host is amazing she always gets back to me with any concerns and rectified them. she definitely takes wanting us to have a good experience serious. pro tip . there is a store nearby on called food plus where you can get cases of water, snacks and even food stuff for cooking. the big thing is there is also a pharmacy and atm in that same Plaza. good to know because there is not an atm at the premises where you'll stay. cash is king.

Our group of 5 was comfortably accommodated and spent so much time in the beautiful open treehouse upstairs. Even during the rain we were kept nice and dry upstairs. We enjoyed the food made by the private chef and all the staff were very accommodating and responsive! Visits from the dogs on the property were such a lovely addition. We felt very at home and would love to come back sometime, especially during another season when the swimming is better. Bonus - the sunsets from the gazebo around the corner from the beach were spectacular. Make sure you take advantage of the beautiful grounds and walks around the area!

Absolutely beautiful! Location is perfect. The house is stunning, with plenty of space for large groups, a lovely pool and breathtaking view. The staff were amazing and took great care of us. An unforgettable holiday!

Absolutely loved our stay here, the home was exactly like the photos if not better, we were welcomed with them most helpful, hands on, amazing staff. The location as well was perfect right on the beach and close to everywhere in Jambiani, would recommend this place if you are planning to come to Zanzibar !!

Casa di Lilli är en pärla! Vår vistelse i Elisabettas vackra hus överträffade alla våra förväntningar. Läget är fantastiskt! Det är ett riktigt strandhus med en underbar altan och fantastisk vy över strand och hav. Ett perfekt ställe där vi kunde varva ner, koppla av och bada i det underbara havet. Huset är vackert och genomtänkt inrett, väl omhändertaget och mycket rent. Bra kök och köksredskap om man vill laga egen mat. Flera bra och trevliga restauranger finns precis bredvid. Under hela vistelsen blev vi oerhört väl omhändertagna av Theresa, en underbar kvinna som gjorde rent och fint för oss och alltid fanns tillgänglig om vi behövde något, tack för din omsorg! Ett stort tack till Abdul för din hjälp att arrangera saker för oss och fixa det vi behövde hjälp med, samt trevliga och informativa samtal! Tack Elisabetta för att vi fick bo i ditt underbara hus och för en genomgående mycket god kommunikation! Vi önskar att vi någon gång kommer tillbaka till detta paradis. Tack!

Lovely home—clean, cozy, and well-equipped. Great location and very comfortable stay. The host was kind and responsive. Only thing I would recommend is a sign because it was pretty hard for the taxi to find us. I’m already planning on coming back next year with my family hopefully this house is available!

Die schönste Unterkunft auf Sansibar, ausschließlich super nettes Personal, das Zimmer und der Pool waren perfekt sauber und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, die Lage ist unschlagbar. Wir würden jedem empfehlen, hier hin zu kommen und kehren auf jeden Fall zurück! ❤️
