We absolutely loved the place! It is a truly peaceful place where you can be completely free and enjoy your time. It is covered in the jungle garden giving a great connection to nature - monkeys are jumping around the trees, lizards running around, and butterflies landing on the flowers. Direct beach access, a nice refreshing pool under the canopy, plenty of secluded places to chill in hammocks and sunbeds. Very family-friendly. Fantastic hosts and good rooms with AC. It is a windsurfing beach and no beach boys are harassing you. We loved every minute of our stay and will try to visit again.

I spent just one night at Tawi Elegant Rooms in Watamu, but it was enough to leave me with a truly wonderful memory! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a warm smile and great kindness by the owner, Gisella, who was always available and attentive to every need. The staff was amazing – friendly, professional, and always ready to go the extra mile to make guests feel comfortable and cared for. The property is beautifully maintained, in a peaceful and convenient location, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the unique charm of Watamu. I wish I could have stayed longer, but I will definitely come back for more nights in this little paradise. Congratulations to the whole team!

I had such a lovely stay! Sophia was incredibly warm, kind, and responsive from the moment I booked. She made me feel truly welcomed and at home. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests. Highly recommend her as a host! The room was clean, cozy, and exactly as pictured, peaceful, with a beautiful breeze and great lighting. I slept so well and felt safe throughout my stay.
