Medina Palms
4.5/541 Reviews
We really enjoyed our stay at the Medina Palms for our wedding anniversary trip. We went with our two-year-old and it was perfect for a family trip. The staff were really kind, especially Rama by the beach who made sure we had the perfect beds overlooking the ocean where our toddler could play all day long. He brought him extra sand toys and really looked out for him which we appreciated. Because it was low season and it was our anniversary the hotel was able to upgrade us to a penthouse which was so kind of them. The penthouses are so beautiful with two bedrooms, a fully functional kitchen, two dining areas, an upstairs living room and plunge pool. We were spoilt in terms of space. The decor is lovely and has a real coastal feel. There are three pools to choose from all connected by longer smaller 'pools' which are shallow hence great for kids to splash about in. The food was great and the location directly on the beach was really nice. July is seaweed season which meant there was A LOT of seaweed on the beach/ in the ocean...but it didn't bother us much. There were just some minor maintenance issues like the safe and phone not working in our room but was we were only there for 3 nights we were not bothered. Would definitely recommend this lovely place!

Lily Palm Resort
4/540 Reviews
I visited this place on my first solo travel and it was AWESOME! They have a clear blue pool overlooking the beautiful blue waters of Watamu. And with them, what you see is what you get; what you see on their profiles is EXACTLY what you will see on arrival. The rooms were spacious and of importance had air conditioning and a fan too, with the heat that is there, a definite plus. Watamu is mostly populated by older Italians who stay in the hotels there permanently, and so with this the amazing and friendly stuff are more than happy to receive one of their own! Waliniambia nilipo wasili kuwa Watamu kuna utamu, na hawakudanganya ng'o! A DEFINITE on your travel to-do list!
Jacaranda Beach Resort
4.4/541 Reviews
Amazing. First of all resort is very well designed and its remarkable architecture make it a luxury but at the same time characteristic one, due to the intelligent respect of African and local ”genius loci”. Room was very spacious and I did appreciate materials and finishing, making it comfortable, but at the same time rustic, looking very ”local” but not in a kitschy way. Luxury resorts are sometimes kitsch, but that doesn't happen at Jacaranda, on the contrary giving the best example of compromise between luxury, comfort and tradition. Cuisine was excellent, with plenty of international, African and Italian choices and a very good Kenyan/Italian fusion experiment. Pastas, fish, meat, fruit, salads, dressings, everything was tasty and safe. Just desserts weren't anything special, I'd suggest to introduce some Italian traditional ice-cream. Staff was prompt and nice, all our requests have been completely satisfied. Place is great, daydream beach and fascinating excursions (never miss the safari!) within a few hours range. Must go!
Rafiki Village
4.5/518 Reviews
Villa Samawati un vero sogno! Villa grande inserita all'interno del contesto Rafiki Village con piscina davanti a casa. Abbiamo avuto a disposizione lo chef Edison che ha preparato per noi colazione e cene, sistemato e pulito le camere. É un chef superlativo, ci ha preparato anche tagliatelle al ragù e lasagne con sapore identico a quello italiano! Villa consigliata con l'opzione chef per qualche giorno di relax.
