Perfect place to stay if you are not looking for a noisy resort holiday stay. This is a place to relax. Staff was always ready with a smile to help you with all your needs. Structure is new, rooms are big and very clean. It is close to the beach and swimming pool was great after a day outside. We used the personal chef and I can assure you top service. I would surely recommend it.

The property is located next to the beach, easy to access to the beach, pool, bar and shower. Staff was extremely friendly and all were trying to make our stay comfortable. Food and drinks served in the bar were reasonably priced, fresh and tasty. Beds are comfortable, if you choose to stay in a room with AC, a good sleep is unavoidable.

I spent just one night at Tawi Elegant Rooms in Watamu, but it was enough to leave me with a truly wonderful memory! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with a warm smile and great kindness by the owner, Gisella, who was always available and attentive to every need. The staff was amazing – friendly, professional, and always ready to go the extra mile to make guests feel comfortable and cared for. The property is beautifully maintained, in a peaceful and convenient location, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the unique charm of Watamu. I wish I could have stayed longer, but I will definitely come back for more nights in this little paradise. Congratulations to the whole team!

The house was great with everything you need to feel comfortable and even some extras (outside shower, sitting area with mangrove view. The garden is paradise with lizards, crabs, flowers etc. Everything is beautifully maintained and the housekeeper was nearby in case of any incidents or questions. And of course the proximity to the beach and mangrove was great.

It was a home away from home kind of vacation, had a very genuine setting where all visitors feels included especially during meals where everyone sits at one table and enjoys the delicious meals prepared by the chefs. The whole team was a 10/10 P.S if you are into volunteering programs like marine or beach clean-up then A Rocha is your place
