We had an amazing stay at Beba’s beach house and particularly enjoyed the beauty of the house, the availability of the host, the cosiness of the room and the balcony, the generous and tasty breakfast with ocean view, the two friendly dogs and the access to the private beach of course. Beba helped us organizing a blue safari to see dolphins and to do snorkeling, which was amazing! You can also have lunch and diner at the property and the food was good! Thank you Beba, looking forward to coming back.

This is honestly one of the best places I've ever stayed, I didn't want to leave! So relaxed and quiet with wonderful staff (especially Seline). Your stress levels just disappear as soon as you arrive! Swimming pool was a great way to cool off after being out for the day. The room was big and comfortable, no mosquitoes. Food was delicious! It is a mile or two from the beach but you can get there in a tuk tuk easily. The beaches and snorkeling are stunning and Gedi ruins are also well worth a visit.

Some of the best food I've eaten in Kenya so far, our room had an amazing view and didn't disappoint at all. The swimming pool was amazing and the staff are very friendly and attentive.

    Liked the Bungalow, felt nice and private with a "garden". Liked the mosquito nets, cozy to hear all the sounds outside in the night even if it take a night or two to get used to. It's situated by the Garoda beach which definitely is one of the most beautiful beaches in Watamu. Very quiet and relaxing place. Friendly and helpful staff.

    This is an exceptional place, and you have a private mangrove beach! There are several beautiful huts, as well as some bigger cottages. I preferred to shower outside, to avoid my room getting humid, and it was just wonderful. If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet place, immersed in nature, you will love this.
