Villa vacation rentals in Kilifi

Kevin’s place was so great we decided to go back again for another few days, towards the end of our trip. Everything was impeccable, and Kevin was very attentive and flexible, allowing us to have a late check out which suite our travel needs perfectly. Rose cooked a few times for us this time and her food is fabulous, we highly recommend her services, plus she was very friendly, patient and very accommodating. Another great stay at Kevin’s place, it’s home away from home. Kevin a great bloke, friendly, chatty, helpful and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again and hopefully one day we get to meet Kevin in person for a beer. Thank you, Julz and Mina ☺️.

The house is amazing and the setting is wonderful. They also provided us with the contact to hire a cook who was great and a driver to get around the area. I recommend it 100%.

We had a wonderful stay at Daniele's house. The house, the staff, everything was great. Thanks!

We have fallen in love with Watamu, but most especially Doum Palm. We are truly so grateful to have found this beautiful house. We loved everything about it, our kids felt right at home, the walk to the beach was so easy which was great to go back and forth between the pool and sea everyday. A stunning spot, surrounded by beautiful trees, peaceful and quiet. Innocent, Maggie, Rehema & Dan are an absolute joy and made everything about our stay so easy. Innocents food was delicious, with small children, eating out isn’t always easy but we didn’t feel the need with the food that Innocent produced and always went out his way to find us the best fresh sea food! We would not hesitate to come back to Doum Palm and already planning a trip for next year! we look forward to recommending this quaint and peaceful spot to our friends and family. Thank you to the hosts for all the recommendations on places to go, taxis, Tuk Tuk etc. we made great use of it all. We can’t wait to come back!

We had such an amazing time in Watamu and staying at Jane’s property. The property is in a beautiful, peaceful and relaxing area. The photos do not do it justice, it’s such a beautiful place to stay. A great location as a base to explore all of Watamu. Everything about staying here was perfect. We felt very welcomed here, Jane made us feel at home and was so friendly. The staff were also lovely and very helpful. Loved the dogs! We had a wonderful time staying here in Watamu, and would definitely love to stay here again next time. Thank you for an incredible stay.

Beautiful house with everything you need! Mc Donald and his team provided delicious meals tailored to size. We loved the first day . Lovely swimming pool and relaxing opportunities. And everything was perfectly fine! Recommended. !

The house and staff were fantastic. I will definitely choose the same place for my next trip to Watamu. The staff made us feel right at home and were always there to assist with anything we needed. The garden was well-maintained and tidy, so we didn’t have to worry about mosquitoes or bugs. I 100% recommend to others. Thank you Paola and your staff

Extraordinary! Perfect halal getaway. Private pool and cottage. We booked last minute as a family with 2 elders and a one year old. The place was beyond our expectations. We used the 3 double rooms on the ground floor which were immaculate. The infant had plenty of space to play and enjoy the gardens/ pool/ lounge area. The staff are impeccable! Malik , the chef , cooked according to our requests and prepared some DELICIOUS Swahili dishes. Zainabu was brilliant and patient with everything she did and was a huge help with my daughter ( prepare separate meals/ clean up/ prepare milk etc) , Kasim kept the grounds and pool immaculate and Ann was a brilliant manager. Asante! We definitely intend on returning soon.

Absolutely incredible villa, everything went above and beyond what we could have wanted. Fantastic location with incredible views of the beach and the sunset from the roof. Everything is spacious, clean and we felt very at home and in our own private oasis. Joseph, Dixon, Moses, Robert and the team were such a delight and always on hand whenever we needed and we were so grateful for everything they did to enhance our experience. Couldn’t recommend this villa more

Thank you Antonio and Yasmine for a lovely stay in Watamu. The staff in both villas made us feel completely at home. Chef Evans continued to impress us with his delicious meals, Maggie, Andrew and the staff in the 2nd Villa were all amazing. We would recommend AC units in the main villa as the rooms would get hot at night. The other villa has nice cool rooms because they had ACs in each room. Overall, a fantastic stay - great food, great location, great rooms and great fun in the swimming pools - day and night. Thank you for your hospitality.

Giovanni’s place was truly outstanding! The space is beautiful and very calm and peaceful. We felt so at home. The staff are really excellent. They have a limited menu at good prices and the food is excellent. The pool is delightful. Just the right size of place - 5 rooms (some double, some twin) and many different common areas, which allow you to space out from other guests. We also made new friends. A really great experience all in all. Thank you Giovanni, Stephen and Ngala.

The best bang for buck on Airbnb! The pictures don’t do the property justice… What a beautiful villa!! The team at the house was excellent, highly recommend staying here!

Ibambe House is truly amazing! The home is beautifully designed, and the setting with beach access is stunning. The food prepared by the chef was extraordinary—every meal was a delight. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly, making us feel so welcome throughout our stay. We sincerely hope to return one day.

We spent a whole month at Saleem's villa, and it was incredible. The property has a huge pool, and it’s right by the sea. The views are stunning, and the beach is usually so quiet, it feels almost private. One thing that really stood out was how peaceful it was. Just sitting outside, listening to the waves and birds, added to the tranquil vibe of the place. The villa is spacious, with a well-equipped kitchen. It also has a beautiful garden, maintained by gardeners. Moses, who took care of the villa, ensured it was always clean, which we really appreciated. Saleem was a great host, he was easy to communicate with and even installed mosquito doors for us before we arrived. It was a thoughtful gesture. He also arranged our airport transfers, which was super helpful. Photos and description don’t do this place justice. It’s even more beautiful in person. If you’re looking for a quiet and private getaway, we can’t recommend this spot enough. It felt like our own little piece of paradise.

Amazing stay! Gorgeous spot on the ocean with lovely grounds. The pool was large and great for relaxing. There were trees and flowers, all beautiful and nicely taken care of. The staff was more than accommodating and the chef was AMAZING. Loved our stay.

Rispa is such a good host. Her staff are also such lovely people. Paul gave us directions to the place and took care of us while we were there. Emmanuel, the chef, and the cleaning lady were also lovely. The place is truly the white villa. It is so clean and spacious. It is private, and Paul also helped us organise logistics wherever we decided to move. 10/10 would recommend.

The Makuti house is a beautiful, spacious house where I felt right at home. It is located on a screened, guarded area with some houses and a very nice swimming pool right next to the house. In the neighborhood there are shops for food, clothes, but also beautiful African fabrics. A little further away but easily accessible interesting places to visit. A beach is 1 km away. So a very nice place to use as a base.

We spent 2 amazing nights at Giulia’s House. Marica and Justin were so nice, helpful and friendly. They helped us a lot in many ways. Lovely villa indeed with cozy rooms, clean and large bathrooms and beautiful swimming pool & terraces. Highly recommend!

This is our second year staying at White House in Watamu and we will go back again next time we visit. It is a great location on part of the Watamu beach that we think is the best. It is easy to walk out of the gate and you are on the beach in 1 minute. The house is wonderful with enough fans that even on the hottest days you are able to keep cool. We like the fact that it is across from the Kobe Resort so you can go over and grab a drink or food plus there is always enough transportation nearby to run into town. The staff are wonderful and keep the house clean and are helpful if you need anything. The chef makes fantastic meals and we ate in most of the time as he can just order fish, shrip, lobster, crab right to the house. Overall a wonderful experience and we look forward to going back again next time we are in Watamu.

Thank you Daniel and all the Baobab Village Team for our stay. Baobab Village is situated few minutes walk from the beach and a few minutes of TukTuk from Watamu center city, House was nice and clean, the swimming pool was huge and very well maintained. The chef Eric was amazing, and all the Team was welcoming and friendly. Definitly recommand !

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Elena House. Kevin was super helpful, easy to contact and very quick in his responses. He also had plenty of very helpful tips about the area, things to do, contacts etc. The house and the pool were wonderful. Perfect for a big group and ac in every bedroom. The staff were extremely friendly and assisted us with everything we needed. The beach is just a short walk away and there are lovely restaurants a TukTuk trip down the road. We also recommend a boat tour to the beautiful sand islands. Highly recommended place!

It was a perfect stay in all its aspects. The house is beautiful, a short walk from the sea and Mida Creek. Jackson the cook is really great. Excellent cleanliness. Highly recommended, we hope to be back soon.

We had such a wonderful time — your stunning villa was absolutely perfect for us. It was spacious, kid-friendly, and in a fantastic location. Your staff was incredibly professional and helpful throughout our stay. The pool was definitely my favorite spot, but what truly stood out was the fact that the water in your villa is salt-free — such a rare and refreshing feature on the Coast! Thank you again Olivier’s for your outstanding hospitality, excellent communication, and top-notch customer service. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Can't wait to come back! The photos of this place doesn't do it justice, it's beautiful. If you are looking for a peaceful place, private beach without beach boys, spacious etc..this is the place to be. Thank you to Goldermeer for helping us get a chef (Samson) who made delicious meals for our entire stay. Special thanks to Celina (House keeper) who became part of our family. She made sure that all the spaces were spotless. We had a blast!
