Review: I recently stayed in Watamu at the beautiful villa called Airamjudi, and it was an exceptional experience. The villa offers all the comforts needed for a relaxing stay: the room was well-furnished, spacious, and equipped with everything I could ask for. The location is perfect for those looking for tranquility but still want the convenience of getting around easily. The area is peaceful and safe, and it’s very easy to move around thanks to the availability of tuk-tuks and motorbikes. Plus, the villa is located right in front of Fortamu Beach, which is easily reachable on foot—a huge bonus! One of the highlights of my stay was the fantastic pool, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere of the villa. I had an amazing time and will definitely return. I highly recommend Airamjudi to anyone looking for a perfect combination of relaxation, comfort, and natural beauty!

Our stay was very safe, comfortable and pleasant. Ash is a the host ever, he provided very detailed instructions and recommendation, we had everything we need. The house is very big and it is with personal touch which is always an advantage. You have all the shops and facilities you need just within walking distance. The Italian restaurant Papa Remo is quite good and has a beautiful sea view. The area is quite and safe

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

    Incredible, we loved every moment. Samuel, Ken and Sharon were all so welcoming and went above and beyond, we felt right at home. We worked remotely here for a week and it was the only place in watamu we were able to work, due to the great wifi and if there was a power cut Samuel had the generator on straight away. These villas are just breathtaking! If you go to watamu stay here! We loved every moment and will definitely be back.
