The resort is in a very convinient location at the heart of watamu; very clean and nice swimming pool
Its very minimalistic...limited cutlery barely any sitting area inside the villas.
Had to constantly request for shower gel and towels were not changed.
Beautiful place but they need to improve on a few items for it to become the gem it really is.

Very clean, very comfortable, good beds, a good working AC, nice pool. The staff is very kind, polite and always helpful. They cleaned the rooms properly.
Unfortunately there’s a construction site around, so a bit noisy from time to time.
Unfortunately the kitchen was not well equipped. We missed a small pot, as there was no water boiler. We struggled a bit to make tea for breakfast.

Rafiki Tamu Residential Resort ist zweifellos das beste Hotel, in dem ich je in Kenia gewesen bin! Von Anfang bis Ende war meine Erfahrung einfach nur traumhaft.
Schon bei der Ankunft spürte ich die herzliche Begrüßung des Personals. Die Unterkünfte sind atemberaubend - geräumige, geschmackvoll eingerichtete Zimmer mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht auf die umliegende Natur. Ich fühlte mich sofort wie zu Hause.
Das Essen war hervorragend - frisch zubereitete Gerichte mit lokalen Zutaten, die meinen Gaumen verwöhnten.
Was Rafiki Tamu wirklich auszeichnet, ist jedoch die Gastfreundschaft und Aufmerksamkeit des Personals. Sie gaben sich die größte Mühe, um sicherzustellen, dass mein Aufenthalt perfekt verlief. Von der Buchung von Aktivitäten bis hin zur Empfehlung von Restaurants in der Umgebung, sie waren immer da, um zu helfen.
Insgesamt kann ich Rafiki Tamu Residential Resort nicht genug empfehlen. Es ist nicht nur ein Hotel, sondern ein unvergessliches Erlebnis, das Sie mit wundervollen Erinnerungen zurücklassen wird. Ich kann es kaum erwarten, wiederzukommen!

The villa was gorgeous, very clean and spacious - lots of space to chill and nice bathrooms. The kitchen had enough things to cook breakfast and make coffee and was cleaned every morning. The pool was fab and the staff let us hang around with music without bothering us. We accidentally stayed an extra night - we thought we had booked until the day after we had and nobody came to ask us until the next day. We checked in and paid a few days after we arrived and there was no hassle. The place felt well looked after and secure. Good wifi.
There were more staff than guests and they were helpful if a little uninterested in our stay. The location was maybe a little different to what we expected - we hoped to be on the beach but it was a tuktuk drive away from most places really. It was off season so it was fairly quiet and we had not realised there was no restaurant or bar but again that was due to us staying in a few different places and not looking too closely at the details.

Chef arrives at your selected time and cooks what you like, pool is beautiful. I like the pool as its salt water(not to be confused with sea water).
Showers put water over the floor but a towel down would solve it. I assume water is pumped up from the water table which is perfectly fine but bring mineral water(as you should to any place).
