Vacation rentals with lake access in Kenya

Everyday my mum swam in the pool and said 'I'm in heaven'. That's almost all you have to know! The house is beautiful, the staff incredibly kind and helpful, the surrounding by the lake very quiet and with a nice open view, yet close from the main road and walkable to Pili pan. We loved it.

Beautiful home in the middle of Camp Carnallys! Definitely wish I had been able to stay more than one night with my 6 female friends.

This house is so amazing. Exactly how it is in the pics. Nickson is an awesome host, I loved that he was quite flexible on the check-in and check-out times. We had a birthday party at the premises; the compound’s landscape provides a beautiful space for hosting a small function. The beds are so comfortable, every one on the family loved it all!

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!

The location is peaceful and quiet with breathtaking views of the lake. Loved my stay there

A beautiful place for our family, the kids are already asking when we're going back. The A/C was a blessing after a long hot day! Highly recommend!

The place was just as pictured. Elvis was such a hospitable host and was always a phone call away to cater for all our needs. We especially enjoyed the patio and the grill. The location was convenient to access amenities. This place is definitely a hidden gem.

I had a nice stay. Booked the place for my brides maid and we enjoyed our stay

Nice , Calm,peaceful the most serene place everyone should visit A home away from home

Chichii has a beautiful Morden apartment with AC. It has spaces rooms with modern showers. This place is absolutely stunning with the swimming pool and gym downstairs. A short distance walk to the shopping mall. I’d recommend this place 1000%

Loved my stay, very responsive host. Recommend, will definitely stay there again.

Beautiful, clean and peaceful atmosphere. We enjoyed staying at The Forest Retreat. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and comfortable getaway.

Number one Airbnb in Mombasa. Hostess and accommodation are unique. I immediately felt at home. There is a supermarket and restaurants nearby. The 24h security service made me feel very safe. Thank you Nailah.

Nice quiet place to stay. Its was worth the price paid. Bilha was always available to answer any concerns. I loved that they cleaned the unit everyday. Top notch security, we enjoyed the place. I would definately recomend to others.

An amazing place to stay, truly a hidden gem in HomaBay. highly recommend

"A wonderful place to refresh your mind—so peaceful, you can actually hear the silence. The assistants, Joseph and Muthoni, were incredibly helpful and made us feel completely at home. Jacinta, the host, even visited to check in on us, which was a lovely personal touch. We felt so well taken care of—beyond our expectations."

Sam and Harriet were very great at responding and advising with local /near by restaurants. Elijah at the house assisted a lot in the checkin and providing firewood for the fire place . Absolutely brilliant! The dogs (Nusu + Teddy and their friends ) amazing add on. Thanks again.

My friends and I ushered in 2025 here. It was a really good place with amazing views of fireworks. The bonfire was always lit and the jacuzzi always hot! Not ideal for more than 4 couples though (unless you don’t mind being in each other’s space). The chef did a fantastic job! 👌

This place is cosy and functional, carefully decorated, and you feel instantly at home. The bedrooms are practical, with a lot of space for your things, fans at the ceiling and optional AC. The outside is perfect for relaxing, both the terrace of the house as well as the one attached to the swimming pool. Nora and Arnold are lovely and made our stay even easier. Hamish is extremely responsive, helpful and very proactive in providing tips and useful suggestions. The house is not on the beach but at walkable distance, and in case, all necessary contacts of trusted transports and other services are provided...we used them for the whole stay, making all movements much faster and the overall experience even more enjoyable. Definitely recommended!

Beautiful! So happy to have stayed again, Kiboko Cottage is a real gem. Super comfortable, very clean and extremely well put together - there's nothing missing. Really helpful team and Tracy and family are lovely and welcoming. Hope to be back soon!

Great place to explore Naivasha and Mt Longonot. The house and the area are amazing, and very quiet. This is a great place to disconnect if you are coming from busy Nairobi. The house has everything you need to spent few days and relax

Great experience, beautiful accommodation in an absolutely beautiful location with private beach. Two hotels nearby for food. Otherwise very quiet and secluded. Food procurement is not easy but helpful people on the premises. A beautiful experience! We will be happy to come back
