I was in Malindi with my family and we needed a place a stay. I came across this property and saw the recent bad review and at first I was completely turned off by it but something told me to give it a try and book it. Once I got there I couldn't believe how I was so impressed and that everything exceeded my expectations. Let me just say whomever wrote this last bad review either made an error in judgement or walked into someone else's house by mistake. The house was immaculate and well decorated. From the bedrooms to the kitchen and bathrooms. The house looked exactly like the pictures on the booking website. The a/c blew cold. My wife and I I are not really understanding from the last bad review about rusty pots and pans because everything was clean and perfect. And as for rats or whatever small animals this person was talking about made no absolute sense. I went through all the reviews and there is no mention of any of this in any of the reviews and I did not see such things myself. From what I read from the last bad review I think it is possible that the person meant to write about another property and was totally confused.The pool was nice as the staff properly maintained its treatment. The area is very beautiful. The owner herself is very hospitable. I plan to come back with my family and really was impressed. My wife and kids and mother in law plan to come back and thank Linda for all of her hospitality.

Review: I recently stayed in Watamu at the beautiful villa called Airamjudi, and it was an exceptional experience. The villa offers all the comforts needed for a relaxing stay: the room was well-furnished, spacious, and equipped with everything I could ask for. The location is perfect for those looking for tranquility but still want the convenience of getting around easily. The area is peaceful and safe, and it’s very easy to move around thanks to the availability of tuk-tuks and motorbikes. Plus, the villa is located right in front of Fortamu Beach, which is easily reachable on foot—a huge bonus! One of the highlights of my stay was the fantastic pool, ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the welcoming atmosphere of the villa. I had an amazing time and will definitely return. I highly recommend Airamjudi to anyone looking for a perfect combination of relaxation, comfort, and natural beauty!

Serenity, coziness , simple details, plants, carefully decorated rooms and essential lights everywhere ☀️ Neutral interior colors and pleasant zones for your comfort and privacy will let you get relaxed gently 🪷 every room has a big terrace and well equipped bathrooms 💦 And the highest floor ambience took my heart forever ☺️ breathtaking sunrise~sunset~ocean views and fresh air adventure spirit of the house encourages 🪽 The kitchen has everything you need for cooking as well as coffee machine and blender , also potable water is provided. It’s a pleasure to cook there and have a dinner on the terrace 🥹 Easy to get from the Malindi airport ~ 20 mins by car . We rented a car in advance / it’s cheaper than taxi and pretty convenient to explore the village , and you have private parking near property /🦏 The most beautiful Watamu beach is just in 2 mins walking distance by short path surrounded by green garden 🌿 Ash is a great host, always online to help! His house is so consciously organized !!! Perfect quality of everything you use are surprising, unexpected details prove that the owner definitely ,,thinks outside the box,,😎 I highly recommend to stay here and enjoy every moment ☺️🌿
