Family-friendly vacation rentals in Ukunda

We loved staying at Familia House! Everyone was very welcoming and nice! The place was also incredible for our family of four! This was our first time in Diani and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay! Beach is less than 10 min walk away. They also have amazing dogs Mikki and Lala!😭❤️❤️ The chef was also amazing!! 10/10 experience, can’t wait to come back again in future!

Great place to stay. Secluded, private and wonderfully located. Kitchen staff superlative. Pool great for all the family. Very roomy.

We had wonderful days at Villa Shaanti, the house is as beautiful as in the pictures. Ibrahim, Faradi and Seth who work at the villa went out of their way to make sure we had a good time during our stay. We couldn't ask for better service. It has been a pleasure to visit Villa Shaanti and we would love to come again.

Sandarusi is a beautiful house, set on our favourite stretch of beach - we'll be back! Thanks to Anthony and Rodgers for looking after us so well

We had a lovely stay at Pumzika-Tu. The house is completely stunning and the views are to die for. Staff was accommodating and informative. Rooms were comfortable and well presented. The swimming pool was clean and had lovely views over the park. The children had a fantastic time exploring the grounds on the house. Decor was lovely and felt like you had been transported to a different era in a very good way. Thank you for the team for making us stay so memorable and enjoyable.

Beautiful and large house, garden, and beach. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, in-house chef made delicious food, the beach was basically private and the owners communicated well with us. The location is fairly remote but even without our own transport, we were able to take a taxi to diani without a problem. The beach itself is fairly shallow so massive swims are not really an option but snorkeling works and it is still very beautiful. Would come here again any day. Thank you team!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Elodie's place! From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The check-in process was easy, and the space was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated. The location was perfect, close to everything we needed but still quiet and peaceful. I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing and enjoyable experience in Diani. Would definitely come back!

Absolutely fantastic experience. This is a real gem for people that can’t afford the big and fancy beach resorts. Staff is super friendly and helpful. Any problem can be solved. It is a bungalow with your private kitchen but with the service of a hotel. The pool and garden are great. We went to a resort to spend some time at the beach and I must say that I was happy to come home to Shalom instead of staying in the resort. Hope to be back one day

Lovely place to stay with my family for 5 nights over New Year. Short walk to Beach, great chef Jacob and housekeeper Janet always there to help. Comfortable and clean. Lots of space. Great pool. House and eating area nicely shaded from the heat.

The house is beautifully presented with 4 enormous double bedrooms, two with equally enormous balconies. The pictures do not do the property justice. Mzuri House is part of a well run little complex. Security is ever present and you feel perfectly at ease at all times. The house feels very private and is 20M from the quieter Galu Beach, an extension of Diani beach. Sails and Salty Squid restaurants are excellent and only 100M. However the main attractions at Mzuri House are Liz the housekeeper and Shee the chef. Both were amazing hosts. Liz will communicate with before you arrive. She will arrange everything for you from airport pick-ups to restaurant bookings as well as keep the house spotless. Shee the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and lunch and / or dinner. All meals were extraordinary local dishes that our usually difficult to please 3 kids devoured! We can not recommend Mzuri House enough and in particular Liz and Shee.

best place we have stayed , fantastic house at a good location walking distance to some restaurants and the beach ⛱️ I would recommend anyone to stay here . special thx to Patrick and george who are great hosts ! we will be back for sure

We really enjoyed our 6 days at James house in Msambweni. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. The only detail that should be clarified is that you need to provide your own drinking water. We had been made to understand that drinking water was available on site, however after arriving with our bottles nearly empty we were then told water needs to be brought. So we spent the first night thirsty until we were able to arrange a delivery of water the next day around 9AM. Otherwise everything was totally good, and we definitely recommend the place.

Lucia's place was an amazing stay for my friends and I. We had the pleasure of renting out all the villa's on Lucia's property which was ideal for a large group such as ourselves. So please consider this location for both small or large groups as the place can easily accommodate both options. The villas are in a nice location with easy access to a beach which is a few metres away on foot. It was easy to find the location on Google Maps and through the pin shared by Lucia and her team. There are also a couple of restaurants and cafes in the area if you would like to venture out and explore. Lucia has maintained the villas very well, keeping them spotless clean, tidy and well fitted with accessories such as portable fans, day beds, lounge pillows, daybeds, extra towels etc. She has a great team of staff who were courteous, extremely helpful , well mannered and happy. We also noted that Lucia was hands on and in some cases worked alongside her team completing chores. Lucia lives close to the property and occasionally popped in to check on us but still provided us with privacy to enjoy our holiday. She was also kind enough to give us a New Year's gift which was nice touch. Lucia had a team of chefs available as part of the stay and they made us some amazing meals. The breakfast options were tasty and non-monotonous. I also highly recommend having the chefs make you some Seafood as they made us some of the most tasty seafood we've ever had. The place is also very secure. There was a guard available who would reconfirm with us any visitors before letting them in and there is also a lockable garage area if you come with a car. Overall, our stay was great. We had a lot of fun, the place was clean and the staff were always at hand to help us with anything we asked for such as booking massage sessions at the villas, covid testing, taxis etc. I highly recommend the place as you can feel Lucia's personal which makes the place feel like a home away from home.

Always a pleasure staying at this listing.... 10/10 minus nothing! Already looking forward to my next stay....

After a few bookings in the area fell through due to dishonest listings and poor cleanliness, we were feeling stuck for somewhere to go during our stay (make sure you vet your accommodation in Diani!!). We found Leonards place last min, and he was so responsive and helpful from the get go. We arrived to a lovely, clean villa exactly as described - Rose and the rest of the staff were so friendly and present, making our stay very enjoyable. The AC in the rooms provided immediate respite from the heat of the coast. The kitchen is well stocked and we managed to cook up some great meals. With no AC in the living space, it does get a little stuffy but not a huge issue for us. The villa is actually more like an 8 min walk to the beachfront and Pallet Cafe, and nighttime dips in the shared pool provided some peaceful stargazing. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say booking into Leonard's place rescued our trip! We'd love to book both villas next time for a longer stay with more people.

Absolutely beautiful! Location is perfect. The house is stunning, with plenty of space for large groups, a lovely pool and breathtaking view. The staff were amazing and took great care of us. An unforgettable holiday!

The apartment is completely as described in the listing. The staff very friendly and helpful. The pool and the loungers are great (unfortunately there was no explanation as to which loungers belong to the apartment). The neighbors (almost all foreign permanent tenants) attach great importance to rules and peace. Therefore, not highly recommended for traveling with children. Otherwise great place and great host. Thank you

We spend 6 nights at the beautiful garden villa and we had a great time. It was amazing to be so close to nature - and everything that goes with it. We had some incidents where monkeys came in and stole our groceries from the fridge. We solved the problem by putting a chair in front, and then there was no more steeling. We could only laugh at it, and it just made our visit more authentic. But a quick fix could be to put some simple children locks on the fridge. The villa is located a 10 minute walk from Chandarana (grocery store) and it had direct access to the beach, where sun-beds were provided so beach sellers would not disturb you. The staff were amazing and very kind. So a big thank you to Sylvia, Freda, mama Hawa Abdahllah, David, Daniel, Hassan, and everybody else for making us feel welcome, save, and looked after.

Very nice host, who is around. 24/7 the entrance is staffed with personnel - feels very safe and convenient if you need something. The accommodation is just nice. Even if you travel with multiple friends/family. It is spacious. Cleaning (incl. dishwashing done every day). Beach, supermarket, Restaurants all in walking distance. Next time I come to diani, this is the place to go. I fully recommend.
