Overview

If you enjoy an unhurried lifestyle where days are spent unwinding on sugary sand beaches and eating fresh seafood, we’re certain you’ll relish a holiday spent at boutique Hemingways Watamu. Perched along a dazzling beach within Watamu Marine National Park, this gorgeous retreat truly evokes a charming sense of Kenyan beachside luxury.

Days here can be as active or as relaxed as you like. Embark on a sun-soaked fishing excursion or learn how to dive in the crystal-clear lagoons, or maybe you’d enjoy lounging by the pool before hopping on a sunset dhow cruise along Mida Creek – however you decide to spend it, you’ll be blessed within beautiful views and friendly service.

We love the fresh, airy style of the rooms and apartments here. With large windows, scenic balconies and a mix of white and bold colours, there’s a lovely Swahili ambience to every accommodation. The intimate One Bedroom Ocean View Apartment is perfect for couples, whilst family getaways are best suited to the spacious Two or Four Bedroom Deluxe Ocean View Apartments.

Just steps away from the beach, it’ll come as no surprise that the restaurant here focuses on delightfully fresh seafood plucked straight from the sea, cooked with authentic Kenyan flavours and locally grown ingredients. Sit in the sun and treat yourself to a flavourful gelato, or gather your loved ones together for a delicious sharing platter at lunchtime. Time spent at Hemingways Watamu is all about those little moments that make a stay extra special.
