Great location. Really well maintained. Great garden, pool and proximity to the beach. We visited the expensive resorts down the other end but the beaches not as nice and didn't have the same feel. We stayed in Bijou Room 1 for a week and would easily stay again. Really clean, new and homey. Benjamin and the team were extremely polite and helpful. They allowed us to extend our stay and booked us onto the train back to Nairobi and arranged a transfer to Mombosa. You could hire yourself a motorbike or car for the stay but we found it easy enough to flag down motorbikes or tuk tuks as needed. Just make sure you have enough change or ask to stop at the petrol station to change it.

We booked a week at the Rafiki Jua in Watamu, precisely the Rafiki Jua is located inside the Rafiki Tamu, a brand new residence consisting of several apartments (The structure looks like in the photos). Rafiki Tamu is a modern and new structure located exactly halfway between Watamu center and the beautiful beach of Sardinia 2. Our apartment was on the ground floor, overlooking the pool, consisting of dining room with kitchen, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. All nicely decorated with a fantastic African style. Inside the structure the entire staff is super helpful, consisting of receptionists, security, cleaning and laundry service (included in the price), masseuses at a very competitive price, chef (available to prepare breakfasts, lunches and dinners). For those who do not want to experience a village I highly recommend Rafiki.

It is nearly impossible to describe our lovely time at Chris House. The house is very beautiful and always clean, and the staff were exceptional and very helpful. It felt like home ( a gorgeous one). The house is close to the main road, the beach is close by - literally like 5 minutes walk. Chef Ndume made us very tasty meals. The host was always available on call and via chat and our requests were always honoured. We truly appreciate Giovanna for her kindness and the warm welcome to Chris House. I would recommend Chris House to anyone visiting Watamu. It was truly worth it. <3

What an absolute gem! If you are lucky enough to find availability at Beba’s gorgeous beach house, don’t hesitate. It is absolutely wonderful - a real quality home, full of love and care and the most amazing staff. Beba is often around to check in, with her adorable two dogs, but if she’s not there, the staff are always ready to help with anything you need. Breakfast is plentiful and delicious and the chef James is brilliant and makes great dinner dishes if you decide to stay in, definitely worth it! Snacks and lunch, plus a wide selection of drinks are available to order. It’s in an incredible location just a few steps from the beach, gorgeous rooms (especially upstairs with its own wonderful shady and cool terrace), fabulous food and plenty to see and do. The walks out to the sandbanks at low tide are incredible- and high tide brings swimming, kite surfing, and plenty of action. There are some beach bars and restaurants nearby (you can hear music after 10am but it’s off by 10pm) and then it’s blissfully quiet.

We absolutely LOVED the place and enjoyed our stay. The host's expertise in hospitality shines through. Nancy was there to check us in. I really appreciated the attention to detail. The fresh flowers on the bed and the bathroom, the multiple towels, kikois, the thoughtful inclusion of contact information for any possible needs, Watamu guidebooks, and a collection of novels – every aspect of our stay was carefully considered. We had the entire pool to ourselves. It felt so cosy and private. The hosts responded to any queries we had and Nancy was such a delight. I loved that we were also able to check out in the afternoon without any rush. I'd love to come stay here again if I'm ever in watamu. Breakfast was fruits, toast, juice and tea or coffee. They have a kitchen where you can prepare meals. Plus, we couldn't help but fall in love with their charming cats, one of which sported a delightful mustache 😂. We were told about a resident tortoise, but regrettably, we missed the chance to meet it.
