“Simply a scum, no value for the money they are charging; both for accommodation and the meals. I had to cancel.”

“It is a special, beautiful hotel with a wonderful chilled vibe perfect for relaxing”

We loved it. It’s in a quiet spot with a beautiful view of the creek with its own little beach and natural inlet to swim in. There’s also a lovely hotel pool and lots of very tasteful areas with sun beds, hammocks and spaces to chill out in. There’s even 2 raised decks with even more stunning views! The hotel food was good with beautiful spots to sit and have drinks, breakfast, lunch and dinner. We particularly enjoyed the squid and the red snapper. The staff were so friendly and helpful-the whole hotel has a wonderful relaxed and chilled atmosphere. There’s a boat that can take you across the creek ( it takes 5 minutes) to the main side of Watamu. The bar/ restaurant/club right opposite the hotel is very cool and hip so if you want a bit of a different vibe you can just ask David or Sayid to motor boat you across. There are also some fabulous trips to do organised by the hotel. We went paddle boarding and kayaking into the mangroves and also snorkelling on the reef. They even have a spa facility and my husband and I had a fantastic massage to help us feel even more relaxed!

“Great stay. Will come back”

Secluded, Quiet, Just wonderful

“A great place to find some peace and quiet in beautiful surroundings.”

You come to the Mida Creek Hotel for a quiet en relaxed stay. The location just on the far side of the main beach at Watamu makes for very peaceful surroundings. Despite being on the other side of the creek, with the complementary boat shuttle you can be in Watamu within minutes. The place itself is beautifully placed just above a little beach in the mangroves. The Garden is very well kept and the accommodation certainly met our expectations. There was plenty of choice for dinner with great seating options. The staff went out of their way to make ourselves and our young children feel welcome!

“Charming, relaxed hotel with lovely staff”

We had the fab upstairs Palm Deck room - with the glorious view pictured in the website. Super staff and good food - and the fun free trips across the Creek to the main Watamu strip.

“Exceptional!”

Loved the seating areas and the room

“Love it!”

Very relaxing nice little niche

This must be the best place in Watamu!!! At first we hesitated because of the location but it turn out to be the best part! Away from Watamu’s crowd mida creek is the best hidden gem with the best beach. And the place is absolutely stunning! The restaurant is great with delicious food and the stuff were so kind and welcoming And they can take you anytime to the othet side of watamu just by 5 mins boat Thank you David and Gracious and all the staff for an unforgettable experience ♥️

“Beautiful setting and great staff, but some important inconveniences”

The property is beautifully maintained — exceptionally clean and tidy. The staff are constantly taking care of the grounds, raking the leaves, sweeping the sand, and keeping the common areas spotless. It really shows how much effort they put into keeping the place nice. The team was also genuinely kind and friendly, especially Gracious, the waitress, who stood out for her warmth and attentiveness. The boat service was very reliable too — the captain was always responsive, and we never had to wait long to get across the creek. We also really appreciated the gym area — it was airy, outdoors, and felt like a fun, jungle-style setup with thoughtful equipment. The common areas were another highlight, with treehouses, hammocks, and plenty of cozy spots to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

“This place is wonderful. Nestled among the mangroves of Mida Creek, it's a corner of paradise that will fill your he”

A perfect place for a relaxing family holiday. Well equipped and clean rooms, cool facilities including an outdoor gym, lovely and helpful staff who can organise all sorts of activities for you, a boat which takes you to the other side of the creek, and so on and so forth. In short, had a great stay at the Mida Creek Hotel and would book it again in an heartbeat should we visit Watamu again.

“A little paradise on earth !”

Incredible address , so peaceful, away from the crowd . Nestled in a beautiful mangrove creek,my kids spent hours exploring the depths of the water, right in front of the hotel. It’s very safe, so it was perfect ! If you want to go to watamu, it’s very fast and easy with the captain ready to take you on the other side ( around 5 minutes !), then take a Tuktuk ( the hotel can arrange that for you ) to wherever you like ! Our family room was perfect, there was fans for everyone and we did not suffer from the heat. Everything is very clean and beautiful . I could not recommend you enough this little paradise ! Plus, the staff is incredibly friendly and discreet.

Amazing paradise location and hotel! A beautiful place with everything you need to relax - a beautiful pool, outside beds and palm trees. Gorgeous mangrove trees, and fun to walk on the reef during low tide. Some parts of the day we felt like the only guests, not like the more touristic hotels. All the staff treated us very well, always very helpful! Also great to have the option to go with the free boat ride over to the other side of the creek, to Short beach and Garoda beach. I also recommend Lichthaus and Crab Shack for sunset meals.

Great staff and very beautiful

“Nice slightly isolated hotel to relax”

This is a fairly secluded hotel - perfect if you are looking for something quieter than the streets of watamu on the other side, or don't want to end up with a large noisy group in some of the trendy resorts. The food was really good. The massage was nice too. The hotel helps organize anything you want.

“Considering the high price, I think I did not get the value for the money I paid.”

The Manager and staff were very helpful. The location was great.
