Smoking-friendly holiday rentals in Kilifi County

Moreen was a great host. the house is beautiful and has a view to die for. Moreen was responsive and helpful during our stay and was able to sort out a few issues we had with the fridge. I would definitely be back

Fabulous little important, in a peaceful area close to the beach. Adhiambo was an incredible host too, always easily contactable and flexible. Charming place to stay in Kilifi. Only (small) issue was with apartment wifi. I went to Kilifi for a four week work trip and the internet was not great for calls so had to hotspot from my phone a lot. OK in general (emails/browsing) but not strong enough for calls. But there is some excellent places/cafes near by with good internet coverage. And when there were a few power cuts Adhiambo was incredibly helpful and responsive with updates.

the appartment was very big and amazing. it had many rooms and bathrooms, even more than the photos. the beach is like 15 mins away but the way there is beautiful and someone will take you there from the appartment and they can also take you back if you need. there are shops and restaurants nearby. I recommend this place

An amazing quiet serene place , very clean and fresh house. The host ,Winnie is so helpful and responsive. Really enjoyed our stay there 💯

William's place was a haven of peace and tranquility from the moment we walked in to the moment we left. The place felt like a second home with amazing views, a very welcoming helper - Jonathan, whose food was always so delicious and amazing - and the pool, which was a highlight of our entire stay. we couldn't get enough of everything. We are very pleased with the listing and already making plans to return. I will highly recommend William's place as the best place for anyone visiting Malindi.

Great place, Great people and staff there to take care of you. I love Watamu and it's sweet people

This place is an absolute gem. My girlfriend and I had to extend our stay and needed a quite place to work remotely. This was it! Very peaceful, great internet and very temperate (never got too hot). Philippe, the host, was super responsive and very accomodating to our needs. Also the kitchen was superb, for any foody looking for a well equipped kitchen, this is the place. As for the location, it is very central, a 5 minute walk to both beaches, a new cafe just opened up on the corner for those looking for fresh croissants in the morning and there is a great gym about 1 minutes walk from the apartment. Loved it... and we will be back :)

I had an incredible stay at Luxx Suites! The resort is stunningly beautiful, with a breathtaking pool and beach that truly feel heavenly. The rooms are clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed, with pristine bathrooms that add to the comfort of the stay. The staff is exceptionally helpful and polite, always going above and beyond to ensure a pleasant experience. Their warm hospitality made my visit even more memorable. If I'm visiting Malindi again, Luxx Suites will definitely be my go-to destination. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway!

It was definitely a great deal! The host and their assistant was perfect! We had a great stay. The grounds were awesome. They even let us check in early and check out late for just a small fee. It was very helpful being that we had to check out of an Airbnb quite close to there and there would’ve been a large gap where we would’ve had to sit someplace with our luggage. And then we have a flight late in the evening on the day we checked out once again we would’ve had to deal with our luggage all day long somewhere. We cooked in the kitchen, ordered food delivered, tuk tuk drivers were easy to get to come out there. And we were very close to town! The grounds were impeccably kept with great security. I definitely stay here again.

Beautiful resort. Friendly staff

We just loved this place and thought it it even more beautiful than on the images. The tasteful house offers a spectacular view directly onto the ocean. The architecture is beautiful and everything works well. The place is located in a very safe and luxurious estate with access to a private beach an larger pool. We had daily visits from cute monekys and other pretty birds. The staff is very reliable and friendly and the chef great (this is a fully serviced house wirh a cook, someone doing the clothes etc.). Our only problem was, that we did not want to leave !

The space is exactly what you want for a beach getaway with friends - beautiful coastline and sea views off the back verandah. The staff are incredibly helpful yet unobtrusive, and being on Bofa Road means the rest of Kilifi is easily accessible. Highly recommended!

Joanna’s place was amazing. My daughter with 6 friends went there and Joanna was very supportive and welcoming. The house is large, breezy, in great conditions, with large en suite rooms. The girls had a cook who helped prepare breakfast and dinner for a very reasonable prize , the pool was cleaned daily and the place was excellent for groups of families or friends. I would highly recommend and we will definitely go back !

WOW!! What a fabulous trip had by all!! 8 adults and 1 baby stayed for 10 nights at Shuma house. We had an incredible trip. Shuma is breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful, you really feel at one with nature here!. Shuma house itself is stunning, plenty of space for everyone, all the rooms are quirky, spacious and full of personality. The staff were all very welcoming and accommodating, and all work incredibly hard to ensure we are well fed and looked after. Martin, Shumas chef cooked us the most delicious meals night after night! Lots of choice and flexibility with meal choices/timings/allergies etc. Robert was amazing and tended to our every need, especially our daughter Elkies needs! Thank you all so much for making our trip to Shuma House absolutely fabulous! It was an emotional goodbye, but it certainly wont be the last!! We will be back!! Thank you! 🤩

Enjoyed the stay. Beautiful views of the ocean. My family and I left very relaxed.

The villa was clean and well taken care of. Me and my brother loved our stay in watamu and our stay in the villa. The villa was simple and beautiful and was a great place to spend some quality time in and enjoy a good nights sleep.

Had an excellent stay at Pam's place. Great location, on the beach, close to restaurants. The place was well equipped with everything you need. Pam is a great host, quick response. Can absolutely recommend the place

Rita was an absolutely wonderful host. She allowed us to check in earlier since we were travelling from far. In fact , she was awake when we arrived early in the morning to usher us in. The house was clean, spacious and super beautiful. The surrounding were green and well maintained. The staff at the house were really helpful and the place felt very secure. We enjoyed our stay at this house. We enjoyed the food that was prepared for us by the host and the chill and relaxing atmosphere created for the guest. I would highly recommend this place and I will be back again soon. Thank you for making our stay in Watamu memorable.

⸻ I had a wonderful stay at this BnB during my vacation! The host was absolutely amazing—super responsive and always willing to help with anything we needed. The environment was very kid-friendly, which made it perfect for our family. The surroundings were clean and well-maintained, and we felt completely safe thanks to the excellent security. I’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and worry-free stay.

Absolutely fabulous place. I would highly recommend it. Rachel had clear instructions and was always available to help. The place was clean and has everything you need. There is so much to do in the area, Malindi is a lovely place to visit. Musa was very helpful and showed us around making sure we got everything we needed. Thank you for having us.

We had a wonderful week at Nadia's place. It was super clean and a lovely lovely space (with a great pool). Would definitely recommend

Overall, this place is lovely. Very modern, clean and quiet, despite being in the center of the town. We stayed during a long weekend and enjoy this nice, little green oasis. However, few things to improve/keep in mind: - the wifi was VERY unreliable and the connection was dropping off constantly. Not a big deal per se, but might be frustrating if internet is needed for work calls, etc. - there’s no tea of coffee available in the apartment. Would be good to have some basics like this ready for the guests. - the mattres was way too hard for us, and the pillows were too small to enjoy a good night’s sleep.

Marie's place was superb! We had an early arrival to Mombasa which Marie gladly accomodated. She was responsive and a phone call away incase we needed anything. Thank you Marie! We will visit again

absolute great place. Ali took care of everything. when I had an issue evennat 5 am. he took care of it. thank you so much ali
