Looking for a lodge?
Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    Mvuvi is a very pretty and small lodge, carefully kept and tastefully decorated. The staff is very friendly and accommodating to the needs of the guest. Excellent customer service!

    Pole Pole Beach House is literally a minute from the beach with easy access. The staff were delightful and very very helpful (even got me a motor bike to town whose rider was equally pleasant). I'd like to single out Safari, who was a most generous aimiable and helpful host. When I dropped my phone in his car on my way to the airport, he very kindly came back to bring it to me. I had a nice room with a balcony from where you could see the ocean. I had a really really lovely stay.

    The views to the ocean from the main pool, the big balcony of the room overlooking the small pool and the garden, and the help of their travel agency to help me find a spot in a group doing the Blue Safari. The lobby is beautiful.

    Luciano and Grace are two very easy-going people who make you feel at ease. They were very helpful in organising the safari and getting around. Thank you for your hospitality!

    Great accommodation, extremely close to the beach, with a good selection of beach bars/places to eat. Safari was an excellent host - always ready to help, both in terms of arranging trips, or transport, and always ready for a chat!

    I love the location - perfect spot for beach holiday and not too fair-away from Watamu - yes the road is not perfect but for me it was part of my Kenya experience :-) They are a few very good restaurant on the beach and Safari was always very helpful , he even took as to a local church which was amazing experience ! I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to relax and learn a bit about the locals , the location is very safe . Pole Pole
