The staff were unquestionably the highlight of the Medina. Amazingly helpful, warm, nice. We also loved the options for pools. The rooms were fantastic, though AC in all rooms would be even better.

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.
How close can you get to Paradise? Pretty close! At least when you stay at A Rocha Watamu. Surrounded by untouched nature, birds singing, colourful lizzards peacefully walking by. Good traditional kenyan food and the possibilit to get in touch with the researchers and volunteers monitoring birds and reefs. Unforgettable sunrises at this dream of beach. An atmosphere as peace- and respectful towards the environment. Nice conversations with other guests or employees. This is indeed a happy place for all those who favor natures luxuries.
The hotel was beautiful and set in a serene location surrounded by nature and a beautiful creek. All the staff were very friendly and willing to accommodate our needs and special requests. The facilities at the hotel were great, a lovely pool, sufficient downtime areas and lots of activities to complete.
Whilst the location was out of the way of Watamu, the staff made all of the accommodations to ensure we were well connected, including the regular boot across and arranging transportations whilst we were at the other side.
We loved staying at Mangrove View, by far the friendliest and most welcoming place since we've been in Kenya for over 8 weeks. The breakfast is delicious and the chef can also provide dinner for a very reasonable price, which is super delicious and highly reccomended. The owner Reimond is very friendly and has lots of local tips and can help you organize tours, transport and more. The communcal area is very social and it's easy to meet fellow travellers here :) Highly reccomend this place to anyone staying in Watamu!
The staff is friendly, I really appreciate Sarah for ensuring I had a good time, the chef too is friendly and will advise you on the meal to take, he prepares a good meal. The manager can do a better job at communicating with his guests and even inquiring whether they are comfortable. If you need a massage just ask for Cherry she offers the best massages at a very affordable price, she is very friendly and kind. The massage was the highlight of my trip.
The hotel has a lovely rustic coastal feel which we appreciated. The kids loved the pools and spent their days there or at the beach which was conveniently located nearby. It was so good to meet so many friendly tourists and we appreciated the many bottles of water in our room, which were replenished each day. Very thoughtful during this hot season. We also enjoyed some of the spa treatments at Wasserhaus Spa.
Everything was excellent, starting from the staff who was very attentive to everything we needed during our stay. They upgraded us to the suite, they gave us suggestions on the surroundings and prepared amazing breakfast. The hotel itself is located in a perfect spot as it is at walking distance from bars and restaurants in the heart of Watamu. And you can always get a tuk tuk to go anywhere.
Our stay at the hotel was wonderful. The breakfast was tasty, but lack variety, if you stay longer time. Room was comfortable with big bed (in our case it was too hard), clean, nice interior, soft bedding and white towels every day. Guarded beautiful beach area with big sunbeds. A wonderful beach with small islands in the ocean that you can walk to at high tide.
This is a very nice and affordable resort to stay in Watamu, for a relaxing beach holiday. We particularly enjoyed the room size and the two pool areas. The staff are also amazing and the breakfast is really good. Very nice location right on the beach just where the best place to swim is, and it's easy to find transport to nearby restaurants etc.
Liked the Bungalow, felt nice and private with a "garden". Liked the mosquito nets, cozy to hear all the sounds outside in the night even if it take a night or two to get used to. It's situated by the Garoda beach which definitely is one of the most beautiful beaches in Watamu. Very quiet and relaxing place. Friendly and helpful staff.
The pool area and the Lichthaus bar were quite nice great places to hang out and enjoy a meal.
The beds were also comfortable with a nice view of the garden/sea.
Beautiful sea/ beach area quite scenic great for morning or evening walks.
Clean, quiet place. Customer service was 5 star. Bed was extremely comfortable. Keep track of what you are spending on dinner and drinks.They tried to charge us more than they should have. Good thing we wrote it all down.
My first visit to Watamu and an Italian Resort. The Staff and guest were amazing and made out stay so beyond our expectations. We will definitely make Lily Palms our Watamu “Get Away” holiday location here in Kenya.
Everything about the place was amazing, from the host, the location, the facilities, everything. Strategic location allowing access to every beatiful scene Watamu offers.
An amazing place for a getaway stay.
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.
The host Zaitun was very friendly and helpful,the unit is exactly as advertised and in a very secure location,walking distance to the beach. Highly recommend
The pool was great, the food had a good variety, the location was fantastic, just in front of the beach. The resort was clean and the staff very helpful
