Stunning, intimate escape with private pool and stylish interiors, near Garoda Beach.

Truly exceptional stay—better than the photos! The property is romantic and intimate, with a private pool and patio, and a charming, elegant, and minimalist interior that feels very comfortable and homely. Located in a quiet forested area, it is within walking distance of Garoda Beach and Mida Creek, perfect for a serene getaway. Ideal for anyone wanting to enjoy watersports like kitesurfing, paddleboarding, or snorkeling. The compound is beautifully maintained, providing a luxury experience. We also appreciated the property’s environmental consciousness, as it is set in a green area among local settlements—it feels grounded and sonewhat connected to the local community. Exceptional value and highly recommend, we can't wait for our next stay!

A really quiet place to stay and relax!

First of all, a massive thank you to Jackson and Lili that always ask in the morning if everything was ok and they always stop for a little chat about their culture. Then thank you for the Masai who always protect the house in the night! The private pool was very veryyy beautiful and Jane was very helpful at our check in

Beautiful place in a relaxing environment

We spent 3 relaxing nights at Jane’s place, and really enjoyed ourselves. We both enjoyed the outside space the most, and actually spent most of one day just lounging in the sun & listening to the trees sway in the wind. The place was clean & everyone we met were lovely. Watamu in general was a great place & we definitely recommend having sunset drinks/dinner at Lichthouse. You will probably need tuktuk/bodaboda to get around. Someone in the reviews earlier had shared a number to a boda-driver, which we used and were super happy with!

Every thing was amazing as per the expectations. Only we found the pool was not clean may be because of the rainy weather so we inform the owner and she immediately respond and get the work done.

Beautiful but very warm.

The private pool is amazing and the place was quiet and calm. We didn't get a chance to meet the owner but there was milk, tea, and coffee for us and lots of cold water in the fridge. The distance from the town was not really a problem, and the kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook.

Beautiful place, quiet, like a small paradise. Friendly staff. Around 20 minutes walk to the beautiful beach of Garoda, where u don't have such big tides. So u can swim from morning to the sunset. The house is big, super clean and comfortable. 3 lovely dogs of the owner made our stay even better. The pool is cleaned every morning. So after all day in the beach , evening swimming in the pool is a blessing. Always hot and cold water in the shower. Equipped kitchen. Good WiFi, but I anyway suggest everyone to buy a local SIM. Area is very green.Safe and quite around. Veggies and fruits u can buy from locals not far from the house. Good quality and cheap prices. As it was hot in January and humid we always took a motorbike to go to and from the beach and around the area. It's cool and I would say a safe way to explore. In case u will need a contact call Ya 0712 021250. He is a trustworthy and kind person, who is always available with his motorbike. As well u can use tuk tuk, contacts u Will find in info paper in the house. Jane is lovely, and gave us good tips about the area. We felt like home away from home. And now being back home we miss a lot Kenya and the house.
