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.

Watamu Beach Cottages, hotel in Watamu

Just a few steps from Garoda Beach and a 13-minute walk from Short Beach, Watamu Beach Cottages features accommodations in Watamu, with a garden and barbecue facilities.

Beautiful seafront cottage; spacious and very well equipped. Very helpful and friendly staff, who went out of their way to help us with our work at Mida Creek. Lovely grounds and pool, in a spot that is well removed from the busier northern end of Watamu Bay, but still readily accessible. Lovely beach, with relatively few people other than kite surfers. Remarkable value for money. We would happily stay again.

    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.

    The location is wonderful and gives a complete feeling of disconnect from the world outside. From the moment the gate is opened you can see the luxury design of the house and the 2 accommodations at the rear of the compound are secluded and very private. It was bigger than I was expecting from looking at the pictures and has everything you need to cook your own meals if you choose.
