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.

Interesting town, much to see, like the TAAF Snake Farm, where I was for a course, the Gede ruins and much more. Good infrastructure, which is not in all coastal towns in Kenya the case. The beach in front of Papa Remo is alone worth going there!

Watamu is beautiful , but unfortunately too touristical for me. Heavily overpriced for Kenya. People who like bust tourist spots will like it though... traditionally many Italians, if you want to avoid those, Watamu is also not your choice

Watamu has lovely people, tourists are so safe its unreal. Large Italian population and visitors, so most hotels and resteuraunts are italian owned. Best place to eat and the most jawdropping view is from Ocean Sports.

Watamu as such is lovely with a few good public beaches.
Watamu as such is lovely with a few good public beaches. Restaurants are galore and most really good, although mostly expensive. Among the coastal towns I visited in Kenya and Tanzania, I have come back to Watamu most often. The water is crystal clear, the beach white and not overrun, and the area offers enough activities to not get boring.

Local administration and hoteliers should strive to attract more local tourists. Overdependence on foreigners leads to exaggerated prices in addition to leaving Watamu as a ghost town especially in low season.
The resort has an excellent position, very close to one the most beautiful beaches in Kenya. All the infrastructures (rooms, swimming pools and areas of common use) are kept very clean. All the staff is always kind and efficient, starting from the front desk and continuing with cleaning staff, waiters and beach attendants. Special thanks to Miss Denise, Deputy Director, for her continue dedication, her kind support to all clients and her great suggestions for several excursions that made this holiday truly unforgettable.
We visited during the off season so were one of the few guests staying at the property. The staff were SO nice and friendly and accommodated a late check out. The pool was amazing and super clean, the beach was also very nice. Wifi connectivity was great and stretched out to the pool. The only thing that could have been better was the AC in the room, it didn't work at times and when it did it didn't change the room temp very drastically. Overall very good experience.
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 .

The breakfast was awesome especially that you could have your breakfast the time you wanted and the service was exceptional.
Really loved the host Susan who was welcoming friendly and was there whenever i needed her assistance. The staff were very welcoming and smiles all round and really helpful too.
Although the weather in Watamu wasn't nice at the time Susan and her Family and the Staff really made my weekend.
Keep up the good work Susan.
In general, the hotel is expanding and building new structures like yoga place and a very good place for a stay in Watamu —-but I’ll reconsider my choices next year because of breakfast policy. The swimming pool is lovely as always and the New Fitness in an open space is well equipped and modern and I enjoyed working out. Rooms are stocked with water and variety of tea and a pot.
Easy access to Lichthaus. Bed was comfy with many pillows.
The location was super: wery close to ocean, a little bit far from Watamu so it was quiet and private. The beautiful Garoda beach was 2km walking distance.
There were kind and friendly community. They help me with everything I needed. It was supernice to have tasty meals together with them.
You can see a Milkyway in the sky and monkeys in the morning playing on the roof. This is haven for naturelovers.
The location is great for access to most places in Watamu and we walked to the beach. There are restaurants in Watamu village that you can walk to at any hour. We were on the same road with the rest of the family so it was super convenient to drive down to them in minutes.
Safe parking. Secure compound.
The host and caretaker were available when needed and were friendly ladies.
Some of the best food I've eaten in Kenya so far, our room had an amazing view and didn't disappoint at all. The swimming pool was amazing and the staff are very friendly and attentive. The view of the moon rising while we were eating dinner was one of the best things I've ever witnessed. I'd recommend this to anybody in the area, it's paradise!
location is just great, and its a cheap super big apartment. was buying lobsters daily at fish shop next to the hotel and preparing them in the apartments kitchen. sit on a terrace with sea view in the evening. taking a boda to beach - drivers waiting in front of the hotel. was heavenly life for me.
This accommodation is truly fantastic and welcoming. the private beach is very beautiful and equipped with umbrellas with sunbeds where you can observe the islands of Watamu, the pool is very large and clean. The chef service is really great and tasty.
Everything was great at Mbuyu - the rooms, the staff, the pool and all with very quick access to the main beach and bars. Plus the restaurant is fantastic and had the best cocktails we had anywhere else in Kenya!
First went 26 years ago, it still has the same charm and character and yet it is one of the few hotels in Kenya that has given the place an overhaul during covid. Looking for to or next visit.
View and private beach were so peaceful. Manager Safari went out of his way to make guests extremely comfortable and have an enjoyable time. Best manager I have ever met.
Cosy, comfortable, clean hotel. Francesca is a great host and has excellent recommendations! Rooms had hot water and AC. Hotel near to town and fortama beach
