The staff was very helpful and we had great communication Daniele. The pool was always clean and the rooms were cleaned daily, and they were very clean. Also the breakfast was good, made everything we wanted to eat.

Location can't be beat : the sandbar is practically behind the accomodation, with a direct path to the (best) beach. The plot is big, so it's really nice to wander around all the plants and little paths. The double room we had was lovely, with view on the outside. Shout-out to the wonderful team who cooked amazing food for us and taught us Swahili. Very nice village close by, next to F-cafe, and good local food around. We had the best best time !

Very safe and comfortable place, with amazing and helpful owners and staff. If we even visit Watamu again, we will definitely stay there once again. The apartments are very comfy, private and have everything you need for a longer stay. Cute doggos are also 10/10 :)

Gorgeous and comfortable apartment with a nice swilling pool. Restaurants and the beach are close but the resort itself is relaxed and calm. The staff is really amazing and is ready to help at any time and it's possible to hire a chef with excellent cooking skills if you want to enjoy a meal at your own apartment. The communication with the owner was also very good.

It is nearly impossible to describe our lovely time at Chris House. The house is very beautiful and always clean, and the staff were exceptional and very helpful. It felt like home ( a gorgeous one). The house is close to the main road, the beach is close by - literally like 5 minutes walk. Chef Ndume made us very tasty meals. The host was always available on call and via chat and our requests were always honoured. We truly appreciate Giovanna for her kindness and the warm welcome to Chris House. I would recommend Chris House to anyone visiting Watamu. It was truly worth it. <3

The property was very clean, close to the beach and quiet. Very friendly staff and cute friendly pets. Food was good especially the fresh octopus which we had a few times. The pool is just one gate through from the property and relaxing under the trees was just what we needed. Thanks

I would rate it with more than a 10 if possible. Best place we have stayed in Kenya. Okay, you can't see the beach from the window here but you don't need it. The garden is beautiful and the village is a peaceful place to disconnect during holidays. Moreover, Maggie is an amazing woman and prepares amazing food. And there is a service of massage if you need as well. We completely recommend it.

We had an amazing stay in Rischland Villas. Althought we booked very last minute, the host was super nice and accommodating and the house personnel made the house available just in time for our arrival. The villa is really a paradise and we could enjoy the swimming pool all by ourselves. The beach is at a walking distance and nearby are also many bazaars. We would love to come back here one day!

Lauren was a super host, helped me with all I needed (boda boda - local moto taxi, beach suggestions, reservations) and engaging in great conversations while preparing my breakfast. I went during the low season (june) and having the place basically for me was the best experience... there was another guest in the villa, but we met only once, so pool and facilities were all free which allowed me to really rest and enjoy my vacations.
