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.

The house was great with everything you need to feel comfortable and even some extras (outside shower, sitting area with mangrove view. The garden is paradise with lizards, crabs, flowers etc. Everything is beautifully maintained and the housekeeper was nearby in case of any incidents or questions. And of course the proximity to the beach and mangrove was great.

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.

The apartment has a/c and fans in all the bedrooms. The location is excellent, right near a little cove and easy walks to two beautiful white sandy beaches on either side. The view of the ocean is amazing, and we even got to see dolphins coming by. The staff are all friendly and very helpful. The kitchen is so well stocked that there is nothing you can't find for cooking up a great meal. The decor is tasteful and well maintained. The beds are comfortable, and the linens are clean and fresh. The towels provided for the bathroom are lovely and big, very clean again. Maggie, the housekeeper, is brilliant and can help with lots of things from shopping to helping find local excursions. The pool is nice and big. Lots of sunbeds around the pool. This is our second time here, and we felt like it was a home from home. We will definitely be back again.
