KenyaI had a great room, the bed was big and comfortable, the shower hot and clean. And staff were great!
United States of AmericaThis is the perfect place to relax as well as be close to the beach and a short tuk tuk ride to the town. Staff are lovely, breakfast delicious and the decor is gorgeous. We returned here on our final night because we liked it so much.

KenyaVilla Mela, lovely house with garden, excellently located in a very quiet and wooded area, a few meters from the beach and a few minutes from Malindi by tuk tuk. Very spacious and pleasant rooms, very comfortable beds. Good breakfast. Steve, the manager, is a wonderful person always attentive and ready to help you at all times.
SpainThe property was furnished with taste and had a character. All areas were kept clean. There are few rooms, so it is quite and you feel like in your own villa. Steven, the housekeeper, was very helpful and friendly, offering unnoticed and pleasant service. Close to the beach, although not in front of it.
