Relax under palms, recharge in the pool.

The apartment sits in Dongokundu, a quiet residential area lined with palms, two kilometres southwest of Watamu. Set within a lovingly tended garden of native plants – where birds, lizards, and the occasional troop of monkeys make their appearance – your stay feels like a small private refuge from the start.

A large bedroom with a double bed and television, a second bedroom with a single bed, ceiling fans in every room, and free Wi-Fi. The fully equipped kitchen sits on the covered veranda. Beside the crystal-clear pool, a shaded area houses a second outdoor kitchen and a gas grill.

The entire property is yours alone. Janet, our housekeeper, lives in separate staff quarters and quietly makes sure everything runs smoothly. Karibu Watamu.

Pool & garden, yours alone

Unlike most accommodations on the Kenyan coast, you share nothing here with other guests. Pool, veranda, outdoor kitchen, garden – every part of the property is exclusively yours. Real privacy, no resort feel, no other voices by the pool.

Solar · Off the grid

Power, even when others go dark

Power cuts are not unusual in this region. The house runs on its own photovoltaic system – lights, fans, Wi-Fi, and fridge stay on independently of the public grid. You probably won't even notice when the neighbours lose power.

The good things, all here.

Stable connection throughout the apartment, suitable for working too.

Ceiling fans

In every room – comfortable airflow throughout.

Full kitchen

On the covered veranda. A second outdoor kitchen with gas grill sits by the pool.
