Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Mtwapa

Just Wow... Joseph is definitely making it into my wish list! One of the best hosts on this platform. Not to mention friendly, approachable, and on the extreme end of understanding. He responds in time and is major helpful in his responses. The place is a true depiction of what's on the listing. And the caretaker was well within reach to pick us up and provide recommendations of local amenities. Thanks Joseph

The place was immaculate when we got there, and was so tastefully decorated. The pool was super clean and the staff were very helpful. The villa is located in a safe and quiet neighborhood in Mtwapa, and we got the whole space to ourselves, with access to a restaurant and a creek. The highlight of our stay was Nana who went above and beyond to make sure we settled in well. Her staff were very helpful. This villa is perfect for families or group of friends and is suitable for both long and short stays. It truly felt like home away from home and we were pretty downcast when we had to leave. I will definitely be booking again. Literally zero complaints and a million praises.

Highly recommended—perfect for a family getaway, business trip, or a peaceful retreat! Our stay was absolutely wonderful. My family and I truly loved the place—it genuinely felt like a home away from home. The space was neatly organized, spotless, and set in a calm, clean environment. The rooms were well-ventilated and equipped with air conditioning, making our stay very comfortable. The ambiance was serene and welcoming. Customer service was outstanding—Babra was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout. Thank you so much!

Alright, let me just start by saying: Patricia's place? Absolutely phenomenal. Honestly, I'm still buzzing from my stay there. From the second I arrived, it was clear this wasn't just another booking; it was a perfect slice of holiday heaven. Being literally a 4-5 minute walk to Nyali Beach was a dream come true for a beach lover like me – I could practically roll out of bed and into the ocean! And for convenience, the fact that Naivas shopping center is within easy walking distance was a game-changer. I strolled over multiple times, even as late as 10 PM, feeling completely at ease. The neighborhood itself felt incredibly safe, with that reassuring stretch of hotels and their security guards, which was a huge comfort for a first-timer to the Coast. But it's not just the location that makes it shine. Patricia has truly thought of everything. The kitchen was stocked with every utensil you could possibly need, turning every breakfast into a special, homemade delight, and making late-ni

I loved the place. Clair was such a great host. Would love to be back

A very beautiful place and a great host to match . The caretaker was phenomenal and very very helpful. Definitely going back there some time.

Albert is an incredibly attentive host who consistently goes the extra mile to ensure our comfort. I wholeheartedly recommend Albert's accommodations for anyone visiting Mombasa

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The host was always available by phone and ready to assist whenever we needed anything, which made everything so seamless. The contacts provided for the grocer, water supplier, and pastry vendor were incredibly helpful—such a thoughtful touch! The house was spotless, and the housekeeper ensured our stay was nothing short of comfortable. Its proximity to the swimming pool was a huge plus, making it easy to keep an eye on the kids while they played. And let’s not forget the rooftop sitting area—it was the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the refreshing breeze during those warm evenings. Overall, it was an exceptional experience, and I can’t wait to come back!

Priscilla was an amazing host! From the moment we arrived, everything was smooth and well-prepared. The place was spotless, beautifully set up, and had such a welcoming vibe. She was super responsive and made sure we felt right at home. We really enjoyed our weekend and would absolutely recommend staying here to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable spot. Thanks again, Priscilla!

I stayed at Terry's Airbnb for 2 weeks (and have just booked for another week upon my return from Zanzibar). The apartment is clean (also the cleaner comes every 2 days to spruce up and change towels/sheets), good central location in Bamburi so easy to get transport, quiet amd has all the amenities to feel like a homevaway from home, including AC and Netflix. terry is very responsive and responds almost instantly to messages I highly recommend this apartment.

Very pleasant stay. Loved the well stocked kitchen, the coffee maker is an added bonus as I love my coffee. Place is a little out of the way, not necessarily a bad thing but i found that uber drivers were reluctant or made a fuss about having to drive there. Otherwise its great value for money, swimming pool is also clean and pleasant to use.

Fiona is a great host and quick to respond. The apartment is in a safe and secure environment. Her home is beautiful and comfortable to stay in. We shall certainly be back.

Not much to add to my previous reviews. My favourite place at Cowrie Shell. 100% recommend.

The apartment is bright, airy, and spacious-just like the photos. It's in a good location, a short stroll from Nyali Mall, the beach, and cafés, with responsive hosts and excellent amenities. Highly recommend!

My stay at Emmanuel's apartment in was fantastic! The apartment was exactly as pictured, clean, modern, and well-equipped, including great air conditioning. The location was convenient, and Emmanuel was a very responsive and helpful host. I especially appreciated the easy check-in and check-out process. I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free stay in Mombasa. Thanks, Emmanuel, for a wonderful experience!

Great apartment and host , was the best place we have stayed in Mombasa to date . Attentive host great amenities and as described made us feel very at home away from home

My stay at Wanjiku's place was absolutely wonderful. From the moment I arrived, she was incredibly warm, hospitable, and accommodating. The amenities were impeccable, meeting all the standards of comfort and convenience one could ask for. The place was spotless, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed to ensure a relaxing experience. The location was also perfect – easy to reach and situated in a great area, making it ideal for anyone seeking both comfort and convenience. Wanjiku was very easy to communicate with, and her helpfulness made everything smooth and stress-free. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for a stay that combines Western standards with a touch of personal hospitality. Whether you're traveling for work or leisure, Wanjiku's place is a gem you shouldn’t miss.

The house was peaceful. I really enjoyed swimming in your extremely clean pool. I will definitely come back for a swim. Special appreciation to mama Elizabeth. thank you so much for making me feel at home. lastly, thank you, Oliver and family.

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.

Nice place, exactly like the photos and extremely helpful and responsive host. I only stayed for one night but it was seamless and very comfortable. Highly recommend the place.

Nice stay with beautiful views. Would happily come back

cozy and very clean apartment. Tee is equally very flexible,. I'lll definitely come back.

Exceptional host, location, and property. Highly recommended. Additionally, the high-speed fiber WiFi is ideal for online work. A backup generator is also provided in the event of any (unlikely) power outages. Thank you, Wayne.

I had a wonderful stay at Brian’s place! The home was spotless and well-maintained, with a beautiful view that made our mornings especially enjoyable. The location was excellent—convenient, peaceful, and close to everything we needed. Brian was a very responsive and helpful host, always quick to reply and make sure we were comfortable. A special thanks as well to the lovely lady who assisted with cleaning—she was kind, professional, and added to the overall positive experience. The amenities were great and everything was just as described. Would definitely recommend and stay again! Looking forward to stay with you again...
