We stayed over the Christmas and New Year period and thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were courteous and professional and both Franklyn (the property caretaker) and Patrick (the chef) were truly outstanding.

We loved our stay at Baobab villas. From our arrival, Franklin was amazing. He showed us around our villa, discussed our upcoming plans and gave us information on how to get around. Ronald, our chef was also incredible. Very creative in cooking and accommodating for children. The villas were spacious and clean. Be aware the third bedroom is a separate entrance on the second level. Check out the upper level to view the stars! Wifi was consistent. The location is a short tuk tuk ride from town, but far enough for quiet after a fun day out.

This place is really quite amazing. This was our first time to Watamu and we didn’t really know what to expect. The beaches here are so amazing and the people are wonderful. We did have a slight miscommunication right off the bat regarding dinner on arrival, but it was quickly remedied. Daniel was wonderful with answering questions about the house and it’s amenities. And once we realized that Franklin, the house manager, was really the one to go through for everything else, we hit our stride. I think it would be helpful to have more pictures of all the rooms and maybe a floor plan of the villa, so that people truly understand what they are getting. The bonus rooftop for watching sunsets was really great. But the third bedroom was not really usable for our family (three children 6 and under) because the stairs and access were outside, separate from the rest of the house. It is also helpful to know that the bedrooms have A/C, but the main room did not. Also, the pool is shared with three other villas, which was not a problem, but just nice to know ahead of time. We highly recommend paying extra for the staff. They cooked incredible meals and picked up the house while we were out and about. And it was so nice to not have to worry about cooking and cleaning up. Thank you for a wonderful vacation. We had such a great time that we will never forget!

Close to nice beaches and nice relaxing yArd with pool.

Bellissima villa all'interno di una piccola proprietà di sole 4 case in tutto, ben mimettizzate nel rigoglioso giardino tropicale, con buona privacy ,.grande piscina comune, pulità e ben esposta con lettini e asciugamani. L'interno è ottimamente rifinito, ed al nostro arrivo la casa era in perfette condizioni. Tre camere, tre bagni, salone, patio/veranda sempre in ombra per eccellenti cene e pranzi . Abbiamo scelto l'opzione cuoco e non ci siamo pentiti: Erasmo si è rivelato all'altezza della situazione e ha gestito benissimo le nostre due famiglie ( 7 pax). Gentilissimo e disponibile anche Abram, il responsabile delle ville, sempre pronto con siggerimenti e consigli.Mare e spiagge nelle vicinanze, 10-15 minuti a piedi, centro di Watamu con tuc tuc a 1,5 euro per 3/4 persone in 5 minuti.Ideale per 2 famiglie, da consigliare !

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! I am a very judgmental person and the fact that I am saying that it is STUNNING really means something! My family is Kenyan- American and we were looking for a place to just get away and this was perfect! We will be booking again next year and we have been telling people all over D.C. about this amazing villa! I love the bathrooms! i know its random but i though the design was so authentic and chic and it really stayed true to the Kenyan style. It is time to get away from the internet and read a novel by the pool. The owner provided magnificent customer service and I would recommend this to the royals!

Villa bellissima, pulita, spaziosa e ben arredata e corredata. Ho soggiornato qua con amici nel periodo tra Natale e Capodanno. Tutto davvero meraviglioso. Non affaccia direttamente sul mare e non ha vista mare, ma cio' non toglie l'incanto e la confortevolezza. La piscina e' utilissima, uno spettacolo.... cosi' come il giardino tropicale molto curato. Una menzione speciale a Willy, Dominique e Abram che hanno reso il nostro soggiorno ancora piu' speciale. Proprietari in loco, disponibili e cordialissimi. Un caro saluto (e a presto). Jambo Jambo!
