About
Stayed after a work retreat and it was the break I needed — felt at home immediately. Safari, Pendo, Elvis, and Lilian made the stay special. Nice intimate boutique villa in a quiet, somewhat affluent community with a very peaceful compound.

Stayed here after a work retreat and it was the break I needed. Nilijiskia nyumbani “I felt at home”. Safari, Pendo, Elvis and Lewa were great hosts, always ensuring I was well taken care of. I had the place to myself, it’s a beautiful beautiful house with proximity to casuarina road establishments, so easier to grab a lunch or dinner at an outside restaurant on the beachfront. The mbuyu is majestic and offers great shade at the pool area - all day! The breakfast was delicious and I really appreciated that they offered bottled water throughout the day.

Nice intimate boutique villa. It's located in a quiet (somewhat affluent) community. The compound is very peaceful and has a huge open spaced airy livingroom that can entertain up to 25 guest for a reception type affair.

First time guest and I was very happy with my stay. Excellent location, very serene, quiet, and private with excellent service. The staff were super friendly and helpful. I only stayed for 2 nights but would definitely come back

Big and very nice room, an incredible garden, and a staff very helpfull, with a very good food, my stay was perfect. The baobab in the garden in front of the pool is just incredible. Thanks again for the perfect stay! I recommend 100% the place if you stay in Malindi.
