Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Kenya

Our family had an exceptional stay at Paul’s beautiful home. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the serene setting and expansive, well-appointed spaces. The house was immaculately maintained, with Grace, the housekeeper, ensuring everything was spotless throughout our stay. On Paul’s recommendation, we hired a private chef whose delicious meals elevated the entire experience and allowed us to fully unwind. The pool was pristine and perfect for relaxing, and the location offered both privacy and convenience. A truly luxurious retreat, we would absolutely love to return

Our 2-night stay at Amu house was a dream. We were specifically interested in staying in Lamu's Old Town in contrast with accommodations in the more touristy resort-studded area of Shela, and we were not disappointed! Between wandering the local alleys filled with locals of all ages and donkeys, relaxing at night on the roof with views of boats in the harbor, surrounded by the sounds of the Ramadan prayers, we felt totally immersed in the unique, rich Swahili culture of Lamu Island. And this is to say nothing of the beautiful, comfortable, spacious accommodations of Amu house! Check-in was a breeze: Mohammed Aweso from Amu house met us promptly at the airport, where he led us on a short boat ride and a 3 min walk to the house. After a quick tour of the house, Mohammed offered to arrange any number of excursions and activities for us throughout our stay. We took up on his offer for a walking tour of Old Town, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. We can't wait to return again!

It felt EXACTLY like home ♥️

Bernard and Jane's house is beautiful! would definitely stay again

My stay at Jambo House was absolutely amazing. I had booked 4 days but Lamu was so good I added an extra day at the end of my stay. Jambo house is located in Lamu town close to the waterfront. The rooms are clean and there is a rooftop terrace with wifi, sockets and a magnificent view of Lamu old town and a glimpse of the sea. Arnold the proprietor is very knowledgeable on activities you can do in Lamu and he helped me get alternatives you couldn't get at any other stay. Arnold himself is a traveler and shares a lot of insights and we often chatted for hours about travelling. Fred made delicious breakfast every morning and it was always served with 2 different fruits and fresh juice. Jambo is a great place for a budget traveler and I would recommend it for anyone who want's a cozy place and lots of information on Lamu and the surrounding islands. I'm definitely going back.

We didn't get to meet Mario as he was away on business, but we had an excellent stay at Cass Ya Ndoto. We were able to access our rooms on arrival which was well before check-in time. The rooms are huge and beautifully furnished and the home is in a very peaceful part of Nairobi. It was very easy with the security getting in and out of the property, and ubers were always only a few minutes away. The house is in a great location to visit the elephant orphanage, giraffe centre and other attractions like Langata Links. The breakfast was also top notch. Thank you, Mario!

"Pola and Alex's BnB exceeded all my expectations! The place boasts stylish, modern furnishings that create a cozy yet chic ambiance. Every morning, I was treated to an amazing breakfast spread, masterfully prepared by their in-house chef. The flavors and variety were exceptional. What's more, the location is perfect — it's very close to the beach and just a short walk to the town center. Despite its proximity to these attractions, the BnB maintains a tranquil atmosphere; I appreciated the quiet nights. Another highlight was the absence of mosquitoes in the room, a common nuisance in beach areas. The fast internet was a boon for both leisure and work. A standout feature of this BnB is the on-site spa. I indulged in daily massages and facials, which were incredibly rejuvenating. This added luxury truly made my stay special. I wholeheartedly recommend Pola and Alex's place for anyone looking for a mix of relaxation, luxury, and convenience. A truly memorable stay!"

The place definitely gets 5 stars for the comfortable furniture, the rooms are private and the staff were very friendly. The location is also amazing and central, right within Nanyuki town. The room was clean and spotless and the service was excellent. We were here for 2 nights and the room was cleaned for us on the second day which is exceptional. We look forward to coming back.

Magnus place was great - he was a really lovely host who really went above and beyond for us. I was a bit sick when we were there and the place had so many delivery options nearby and places within walking distance. The space was quiet and a place to just get away from the stress of daily life. The kitchen has everything you need to make coffee and reheat / store food. Would stay again for sure!
