About
A remote Malindi beach club with good rooms, amazing staff, and a standout pool — but the rough road access takes longer than expected and strict check-in policies can frustrate early arrivals. Great once you're settled in.

Hot and sunny 🌞 ask for cold Jumbo Ice pop available at snow snacks shop next to Malaika Villas & Beach club

We came 30 minutes before the scheduled checkin, and were told that sit out on the gravel road until 5 hours after checkin. The location is very remote with no businesses or even chairs nearby. The manager (Audrey) would not even let us enter and sit on the beach. I have never seen worse customer service.

The rooms were good and the staff were amazing! The pool is also quite something. Unfortunately it's quite far from town and the road is really rough so it takes you longer to access the villas and makes it a little difficult to go out in the town. The beach is about 3-5min walk from the villas. It's great for a family set up but it would be nice if management can upgrade the home appliances and provide more utensils for the self catering villas.....

Very nice place.. Japheth at the front office and Cecilia for housekeeping made our five day stay pleasurable. Loved the beach as well and the restaurant there. Feels like five days was short and we'll be back. Thank you Malaika Beach Villas. Hidden gems

Lovely villas, many set around a beautiful pool. Basic catering facilities but the rooms are spacious and comfortable. Lovely food available in the restaurant too. A wonderful place to relax, close to the beautiful beach. The owners are wonderful, so helpful and friendly. Love this place.
