The last page of stays in Watamu

This is page 3, the last of three pages that together hold the 114 places to stay this site lists in Watamu, Kilifi County, Kenya. The order is the same on every page: guest score first, weighted by how many stays sit behind that score, so a well-reviewed small house can stand above a bigger resort with a single lukewarm mention. Nothing here is a ranking bought by a hotel, and no rate is quoted on any of these pages. If you are seeing the tail end of the list, you have already passed the best-scoring stays on page 1; what remains is worth reading, because these are the houses, cottages and resorts that guests describe in their own words rather than in a brochure.

The names on this page run from small three-star cottages such as Queen K Cottages At Chrystal Homes and Watamu Sunflower House to villas that come with staff, like Watamu Villa With Service Personnel, and to beach houses such as Safina Beach House and Watamu Beach Cottages B&B. Watamu itself is a village on the north coast, in Kilifi County, south of Malindi, with the Watamu Marine National Park protecting the reef and the lagoon in front of it. Mida Creek, a tidal inlet, and Arabuko Sokoke Forest sit next to the village, and the Gede ruins, a medieval Swahili town, are a short drive inland. People stay here to be close to the marine park and the forest, and that is what most of the descriptions on this page are really about.

Each name below opens its own page, built from the booking supplier's record: the facilities the supplier lists, its photographs and its address, with no invented star count and no guessed price. Watamu is roughly 425 km southeast of Nairobi in a straight line, and the village is reached by road from Nairobi; travel times vary with the traffic around Mombasa and the state of the last stretch of the road. Because the coast here is tidal, the beach in front of a house can look very different at noon and at dusk, so it is worth checking tide times before you plan a swim, a reef walk or a dhow trip. Availability and the rate for your dates are checked live when you search, which is why you will not find a price printed on this page.

How to use the list: start with the date fields above and search stays in Watamu, then come back to this page and open the names that fit your trip. If you want the coastal scene as a whole, the Watamu page gathers all three pages and the questions guests ask most, while hotels across Kenya and the beach pages for Malindi just north, Mtwapa and Diani Beach further south show what else the coast offers. Two practical notes for the last page of a list: the names at the bottom are not the leftovers of the ranking but the stays with fewer or more mixed reviews, so read the guest comments before you judge a house by its position, and check whether a villa includes staff, a cook or a pool before you book, since several of the houses listed here are staffed properties rather than hotels.
