Our stay here was so lovely that we didn't leave the property for three days after we checked in. The rooms and the hotel property are beautiful, the atmosphere was calm and relaxing, and the drinks and food were delicious. The bed was amazing, the showers were hot, and the pool was clean. We have absolutely no complaints.

La posizione esclusiva affacciata sul Creek lontano dalle altre strutture e immerso nella natura.

L'altra faccia della medaglia, ovvero il difficile accesso a Watamu, seppure offrano trasporto gratuito dall'altra parte del Creek, poi è comunque necessario un driver.

Small, only a couple of rooms Boat rides to nearby beaches included

Good and drink orders take surpringly long

Es waren ganz wundervolle, unvergessliche Tage im Mida creek. Unsere Kinder fanden es toll und wir genau so. Die Leite waren super nett, es gibt nur wenige Zimmer und der Genuss-Faktor war sehr hoch ☺️

Tatsächlich nichts.

How do I start to describe the best hotel experience I had. Arriving at Mida Creek Hotel was like entering a quite oasis. You enter a kind of community hidden among the mangroves and the jungles by the shore of the creek. You can draw parallels to the movie "the Beach", in the sense of serenity, reclusiveness and beauty. You can go to the hotel by boat, driven by captain of the hotel, a kind and professional boatsman and fisherman. He also does sunset flamingo tours which we took and were absolutely impressed by! Hotel is also reachable by taxi, which the hotel can organize for you, strongly recommended! The hotel is isolated (which is a strong point), you are not bothered by salespeople or crowded beaches like in Malindi or Diani beach, and you have the creek almost to yourself. Even if you develop cabin fever, the captain is always to boat you. Staying isolated at the hotel won’t make you gastronomically bored either, as the hotel has managed to find the best chef on the Kenyan seaside! The menu has good varieties too, local food, burgers, pasta, seafood to name a few! It was one of the greatest food experiences we had in Kenya. Hotel quality is impeccable and is kept super clean and tidy by the greatest hotel staff we encountered – anywhere in the world. From cleaners to the barmen to the pool boy, they all contributed to making our stay as great as possible. It felt like you were staying at a family run hotel, they were all so kind, caring and sincere. The hotel also has that very local vibe, you truly feel Kenyan culture there. And you live in nature, literarily! Greenery, animals and birds are plentiful. Amazonian I would say. Special thanks to David, for being such cool guy and also organizing such memorable kayaking trip through the mangroves. It might sound too good to be true, but it actually was. The hotel had something that no other hotel we have stayed at has had – that feeling of arriving in a special place. Just like in The Beach.

After discussing any suggestions for improvement, we couldn’t really advise anything other than making sure to keep the place as it is. Having any hotel in the environment like a jungle, creek or sea will take its toll in the long run. Working on keeping it impeccable is the only advise we could give. And also to introduce at least one more breakfast option, for a few days the current breakfast menu is good but after a couple of days more a variety would be nice.

Le calme, l’environnement et la bienveillance du personnel.

The location, ambience and weather

Nothing

Beautiful location, charming place and very friendly bartenders and house staff. The captains who took us across the basin are very skilled. We had a great kayaking experience.

Communication could be better - it took a few days and prompts to get transport, a spa session was cancelled, but nobody bothered to convey that. Bed pillows and bed mattresses are uncomfortable.
