Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Kenya

We have had a wonderful stay at Carol's house. I have nothing but good things to say, the house and the garden are so charming, with everything you may need, the rooms are spacious, with very comfortable beds; the outdoor veranda is coosy and the staff does a great job. Carol has been in touch with us all the time and has given to us very good recommendations. We will be back soon!

Another magical weekend at the Cowshed. We loved every minute in this beautiful place, which had been updated since we stayed there a few years ago. We appreciated all the new improvements in an already lovely space. The Cowshed comfortably accommodates 6 people, so it was great for our family of four. We spent hours on the porch at all times of day, and enjoyed the nightly fire built for us. One of our favorite spots in Kenya!

Beautiful and clean accommodation. Victoria was prompt with her communication throughout our stay. We stayed 3D2N with our family who visited from Singapore as well as two young kids 1 month old and 3 years and we had a good time relaxing. masseuse and chef recommended by Victoria were very good too. It Would be even better if there is a toddler friendly playground to keep the little ones entertained. We can’t wait to be back and stay at the newer house!

Had a great time. Peaceful and beautiful!!

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.

Amazing location- loved the staff. Felt so cared for. You cannot beat this place. Just so beautiful- safe- private! Will be back

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!

Deborah’s place is perfect for a getaway. The peaceful atmosphere and amazing views are great for relaxing. Don’t forget to carry your binoculars, for birdwatchers.

Iminza’s place is perfect for a short stay. It’s not the biggest place but has everything one would need before settling down in a new city. Iminza is also a great host, always responsive and quick. Would recommend the stay.

We were a family of four with two children ages 9 and 7 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in watamu. My children didn’t want to leave the pool and it was so convenient that it was right outside the veranda. The location is perfect. Right on the beach but so close to walking to lots of restaurants, shopping, etc. you can walk down the beach to hire a boat for a ride to snorkel and dolphin watch, you can walk out to the islands at low tide. We hired Joffit, a local chef at Federica’s recommendation , to prepare breakfast and lunches and do shopping. Would highly recommend to anyone else. It made the stay very relaxing. The flat was perfect for our family. Extremely clean, spacious and we appreciated the minimalist decor. We didn’t notice any loud noise like other reviewers mentioned. We could hear the waves at night. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to enjoy Watamu.

A beautiful oasis, I especially loved my mornings drinking coffee while overlooking the pristine garden. The apartment is beautifully decorated. I loved the charm of the building. Super comfy bed.

Such a beautiful place to spend a few days discovering Lamu. The rooms are very comfortable, and the views are incredible. Great rooftop too, even for sleeping outside in nice weather. Awham is a great host too, very kind and welcoming, and made sure we had everything we needed at all times.

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful place! The apartment was spotless, modern, and thoughtfully designed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—just a short walk to shopping centers like Quickmart and others. Our host was incredibly responsive and provided detailed information to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommend this gem for anyone visiting Nairobi

The check In proces was soo smooth i was extremely impressed. Loved all the thoughtful touches around the house, everything was just perfect. The place was warm, super clean, and so peaceful—I really appreciated the quiet. Plus, the location was a huge win for me—close to everywhere I needed to be. Honestly, such a great stay ohhh and the fact the host is such a sweet yet professional soul explains why she is THE super host😊

Loved staying at Peri’s place! Very easy to navigate to other locations and a very secured place. It was also as seen in the pictures. She attended to our needs whenever we had one. Cleaning was always available which I liked. Overall, it was a very nice stay and will be staying again whenever we visit Nairobi. Thank you Peris & Andrew.

I come to Kenya quite often. This is our favorite place. Caroline has always been accommodating and always available for my questions or concerns. The place is pretty perfect in my opinion. Good location, feels safe...I could go on and on but if you are considering this or another place, I say book this one!

Staying at Lydia’s place was an absolute delight! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and kindness. She was physically present when I checked in , ensuring that the cleaner and handymen were on top of their duties. The space was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I needed to feel at home. The light in the apartment is phenomenal. When I had a challenge with the washing machine, Lydia went above and beyond to ensure that it was sorted within a short time. The shower is amazing!!!!! The attention to detail in every aspect of the home made my trip unforgettable. I highly recommend her place and hope to stay here again.

We had an excellent and restful stay at Claudio's! The photos do not do this listing justice - it is a very beautiful and thoughtfully designed space. The surrounding environment is very tranquil and just what we needed for our trip to Malinidi. The hospitalily of Henry is unmatched and he made checking in and checking out very seamless. I highlighly recommend Claudio's place. We will be visiting again!

Location location location!!!!! Seeing a few giraffes and a rhino first thing in the morning right from the bedroom window was an outstanding experience! The apartment was clean and exactly like it was described.

Few problems in the house were solved. Stephen is communicative and gives solutions.

It’s always a pleasure to be hosted Julz in the lovely apartment she manages. Looking forward to my next stay in Nairobi.

I would come back any time or recommend it any time. It’s a place to be if you want some nice, peace and quiet and comfy environment with birds singing in the air and surrounded by nature.

Honestly, fantastic experience! The space was clean and smelt good, it matched the photos and Vicki was an extremely communicative host. Highly recommend.

Comfortable 2 bed, 2.5 bath in Riverside Nairobi. Spent the weekend and easy to move around with an Uber in and out. Wifi worked, hot showers, big screen TV, and comfortable couch. Will definitely consider streaming again when next in Nairobi. The location was also close to Crafty Chameleon restaurant, Kengele’s sports bar, Roadies nyama choma etc. Host was super responsive as well.
