The beaches of Watamu are simply amazing.
The beaches of Watamu are simply amazing. Go to the beach just past Papa Remos and enjoy good cheap drinks and simple food at Mapenzi Restaurant- a small makeshift place with sun beds also and just amazing beach front!! Ask for Davis the owner - tell him we recommended his place! Take a trip to Gedi ruins also- super interesting to learn about the Swahili culture and amazing to see the other structures etc

Direct acces to the sea on the beautiful Watamu Bay.
Direct acces to the sea on the beautiful Watamu Bay. Clean and quiet beach with exciting walks to the reef. Plus a great pool on the property at Baobab Village. Our chef would organise fresh sea food "frutti di mare" - the catch of the day - from the local fishermen.

Watamu is a great place with good vibes.
Watamu is a great place with good vibes. Beautiful beaches, especially Blue bay. Great local food and met a lot of really nice local people. I recommend Savanna lounge for a local nightclub experience. And the ice cream place by Blue Marmalade supermarket is really yummy.

Watamu is very nice - perhaps the best beach on the Kenya coast (but we haven't been to them all!). The main beach is super and lots of accommodation options to choose from. Make sure you have dinner at sunset at the Crab Shack at least once. Good watersports options.

Medina Palms
Watamu
From $217.80 per nightAn exquisite gem. This hotel truly offers a luxury experience in the most beautiful gardens, complimented by wonderful pools and an arabic infuence in the architecture. We were treated to an early check-in as we arrived quite early (09h00). We were also offered a complimentary late check-out as we had an evening flight. The service is miles apart. The facilities are stunning! Meals are good and the staff go out of their way to make sure that you are comfortable and have everything that you need. Overall this is a beautiful hotel, unique in its architecture, differentiated in facilities and really sealed with wonderful service. We had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Max. He was warm, friendly and not intrusive in engaging with us. He is the embodiment of his hotel - charming, friendly and understated. We will definitely return and this is now my preferred hotel in Watamu and the Kenyan coast.

Kobe Suite Resort
Watamu
From $94.50 per nightThe location is amazing, just in front of a white beach where you can actually swim if the weather allows. Service is top notch and everyone is trying their best to please guests. The restaurant is very good (and of course overpriced) but you have so many options around that it would be a shame to stay in every day. The back pool is ideally located to protect you from bad weather (winds).

Watamu Beach Cottages
Watamu
From $72 per nightlocation terrific of course and there is a lot to unpack there, from site itself, trees .., to beach, to viewpoints..... Quality of and thought gone into different types of accommodation. Liked the decentralised management - ie no formal reception - which allows for informality and better intereaction I guess with staff.

Rock and Sea Resort
Watamu
From $312 per nightIt was beautifully situated with so much character. Perfect amount of privacy at all times. The owner, Stefano, was so nice. Make sure you do the evening sail on Pepo Huru. I stayed at the bubble tent and the king suite. Both were just absolutely beautiful. Lovely experience. I would go back again.
