It's an unusual little guest house close to the beach, with the old market an easy walk away. The staff are kind and friendly, and there's a cosy place to sit in the garden. It's very clean, which isn't something I find often in Kenya. Getting into the golden water at the beach is easy.

Had a great time here. The place is cute and cosy, the staff are good, and breakfast is served. You can walk to the beach. Just a heads-up on getting around: Uber doesn't work here, so you'll need a bike, an airport taxi or a tuk-tuk (bajaji).

We booked one night and ended up staying three more because I had such a good experience. Everyone was welcoming and friendly, and the ambience was lovely. Thanks so much to pendo and nge for all your great work. My sister and I will definitely come back.

My favorite Chinese lady! The rooms right on the beach are fantastic and very clean. We had so much fun on New Year's Eve.

The food and breakfast were super delicious, and the price was very affordable. It's near the beach, but make sure you follow the right route. Google sent me the wrong way. Find “zippo pizza “ first, then follow the signs.
