Everything from the beginning to the end was flawless. Smooth communication with the owners, Jessica and Nikola, transfer from Malindi airport to the resort, and check-in. The staff is very polite; the manager Silvia has been incredibly helpful and always professional. The apartment was super clean, solid wifi, air-conditioning and hot water present, good breakfasts. I highly recommend hiring the chef for dinner - they really know how to make delicious food of your choice, and it's very affordable.

Solana Apartments is in the heart of authentic Kenya in Watamu and is just exceptional. We will definitely be going back next year if we can make a reservation as it is already booking up fast. Kathryn and the staff team made sure from the minute we arrived to the minute we left that we had everything we needed and organized us with a regular Tuk Tuk driver and taxi driver to get to the airport. Kathryn and our Tuk Tuk driver, Omar also made great recommendations for things to do and places to visit whilst in Watamu. Our apartment was just perfect, we visit Africa regularly (first time to Kenya) and this is the best accomodation we have stayed in. Authentically Kenyan in decor and furnishings. The bathroom was rustic and traditional African and immaculate. It was 32° on average during our stay so the air conditioning in both bedrooms and the fans in all the rooms were much needed and kept the apartment perfectly cool. The kitchen had everything needed and it was great to be able to do a combination of self catering and eating.out. The staff are the best thing about Solana Apartments. Everyone was so welcoming even taking the time to teach us some Swahili and were so appreciative when we tried to learn. Breakfast was included in the price and was lovely. After the first day, as part of our. Breakfast experience the staff cooked traditional Swahili breakfast items for us to try which were all delicious and then we chose this every day. The breakfast was ample and really set you up for the day. Our apartment was cleaned daily, again to an exceptional standard. Although an apartment there were staff there all day and a security guard at night. We felt safe at all times and the staff all went out of their way to help in any way they could.

    Great place, large and cozy apartment with access to a large swimming pool and big tarrace. The host made sure that we felt at home, additionally we had a fridge with cold drinks at our disposal (paid separately). The beach is about 400 m from the apartment, there is also shop, cafeteria and bank around 250m from apartment, which made our stay very easy. Close to apartment there is also nice Italian restautant. Recommend !
