Pet-friendly holiday rentals in East Africa

The villa was beautiful . Amazing staff . Levis went above and beyond . He was always happy to help us . The chef Fondo’s food was a brilliant. we enjoy every meal he produced.

This was a perfect little home with full kitchen, bedroom and bath! I felt safe, and well cared for with Pamela and her husband, as they picked me up at the airport and welcomed me to their airbnb. It was totally private, fully stocked with all I needed for my stay. I only wish I could have stayed longer! It is a very good value too! I hope to return one day!

We had a wonderful 4 days in Maud's house, with my family and our 2 dogs (large and small). Maud welcomed us so well. 🙏🏿 The access to the beach from the house was just great. The house, the rooms, the kitchen and the outside were great! It was our first vacation in an AIR BNB and we would like to thank Maud from the bottom of our hearts for allowing us to have this beautiful experience with our family and our dogs.❤️🍀

This place is definitely worth your time looking at. I thought I’d miss being right at the beach, but honestly, we looked forward to coming ‘home’ to Joseph and David and the calm, quiet, cool of Ruby House. We spent time reading, playing games, reconnecting and resting, as well as swimming and bobbing in the creek - listening and watching birds. It is so peaceful - chatting with fishermen, and just taking in the surroundings. We went for a few day trips- the Gede ruins are well worth an hour of your time, sand dunes north of malindi were great. And we LOVED Garoda Beach - much less seaweed and less busy. I could not speak more highly of the staff - they were present but not, flexible, understanding and really wanted to help make your time enjoyable. The rooms were so comfortable. I think it may be a little hot in the very hot month, but it gets a lovely breeze and there is always the one room to escape into for an afternoon nap if necessary - but we didn’t need to do this. Thanks!

Our group really enjoyed the stay! The home was beautifully nested in nature, yet quite close to Stone Town for exploration. The staff were extremely attentive, helpful, and kind. Would recommend for future travelers!

What a beautiful home and a warm and helpful host. We really enjoyed our stay - this place is now a pin on our map that we would gladly consider returning to. Highly recommend for a peaceful weekend away. The property is beautiful and the house is well-furnished. The host is very helpful and responsive.

Gary’s place is the best for a calm holiday. The chef is polite and cooks delicious food with great suggestions. Very helpful staff who are not too much in your space. They helped keep the place clean and that made the holiday so much better for us. This is truely a gem and we will definitely be back. Thank you Gary

Hi…Cissie is a super host, very helpful for all kind of requests and I loved the apartment…close to the beach and restaurants and very quiet. I will come back 👍🏻

Lovely and relaxing place. Highly recommend! We had four pleasant days here.

We had an amazing stay and people were very kind and helpful. We can totally recommend this Villa. Two lovely ladies taking care of the house.

This was the perfect little tree house retreat. The house was nestled in a beautiful little corner of the property, with a narrow path to guide you, surrounded by trees for privacy. There’s a covered patio that is perfect for an outdoor hang in the rain, the area surrounding the tree house gets quite a bit of sun but you need to bring your own equipment to enjoy it. This is a tree house through and through no frills but an authentic rustic experience. There’s hot water to enjoy a bath and shower, mosquito nets to protect you from the occasional flying thing that creeps in at night ( I wasn’t particularly bothered by bugs but the mosquito net allowed me to sleep peacefully), there’s a cute little loft with a bed. The kitchen has everything you need to sustain yourself but no gourmet dinners are happening here. WiFi worked perfectly. It was just the perfect little no frills low tech retreat that I needed. Stairs are a bit narrow so no kids/ wobbly folks.

The highest compliment I can pay is that this accommodation was exactly as advertised. The house is beautiful, the views stunning and the pool and beach very inviting. It is down a rocky dirt road to a private and secure gate. Not for everyone, but easy to navigate. Once at the house, if you are looking for a quiet, slow oasis, “away from it all” you could not pick a better spot.

We had a fabulous stay at Ronan’s place! The apartment is truly a haven in the Garden of Eden. All appliances you can think of are available. Everything looks just like the photos. I can definitely recommend Ronan’s place wholeheartedly. We’ll choose his place again when we return.

Beautiful place and ideal for several families. We stayed just as one family but would definitely return with a bigger group. Lovely tents and rooms and fantastic kitchen and view from the pool. The staff are very helpful and the riding was amazing- we did a 1.5 hour hack and the horses were incredibly friendly and calm.

Beautiful property in the heart of Paje, walking distance from the beach and restaurants. The host and his team were very helpful and responsive. I would definitely stay there again.

amazing place local beaches amazing as well

The house is an ideal place for a group of 8 people! We really enjoyed Zam the caretaker and Lotorine the cook Small downside with Bab, the person who offers boat trips and excursions, we advise you to get closer to the locals of the village

Very nice apartment and services with a splendid view! we recommend this apartment Ghislaine

We had a lovely time in Susie’s place. Brilliant location, large pool, friendly staff. Communication was excellent, with a great information packet provided in advance. Highly recommended.

Excellent place. the house is amazing it's well designed. fantastic views of the mountain from master bedroom, living room and dining room. friendly staff always available and helpful. I would recommend this place and would definitely visit again..

A breath of fresh air. The place was clean, which I appreciated, it met all expectations. The host was responsive, kind and gave very little reason to reach out, because everything was well communicated and clear. Loved the views and the atmosphere of the place, the sound of the river flows was nothing but therapeutic. A must visit, definitely planning on going back.

Marula cottage was a wonderful serene place to spend a few days. The staff and their attention to detail was great. We felt really cared for and spoilt. Many thanks to Aleem and Soraiya. We will be back for sure.

Amazing location with a great host who focuses on customer service. The staff are great and helpful.

Stunning location, unique property, and such an accommodating host and team! This standard of hospitality is rare + the proximity to Nairobi makes it so so so worth it. Thank you, Petrina, Omondi, Peter and team. We had a fantastic time!
