This is a wonderfully intimate resort. It's size means the residents and the modest grounds are very well looked-after. Each morning, the sand is raked and the pool cleaned to appear as if the resort is brand new. The staff quickly got to know us, our names and favourite drinks at the bar, and they were very relaxed and kind with our children. We stayed in the penthouse, which is simply stunning - to be highly recommended for larger families or families with grandparents. The beach is beautiful; don't mind the hawkers! Occasionally, it would have been nice to have had a few more residents around to create a bit of a buzz and give our kids others around their age to play with - but it was naturally quiet over Easter weekend. On the whole, given we stayed for only three nights, this was a perfect location for us.

We enjoyed a fantastic stay at this lovely beach front hotel. Nicely finished, the rooms are practical and stylish. Beds are comfortable and a good size. The bathrooms are of a good size and accessible. The balconies have a fantastic view over the Indian Ocean and are great to catch the sunrise and early morning sun. There's definitely no need to stay in bed, there's a clean and well maintained pool. The restaurant has a good selection of food and the bar is well stocked. All of the staff are kind and considerate, very pleasant to talk to and accommodating to individual requests. This is the perfect small hotel for a relaxed family stay. 5 days didn't seem long enough and we were very sad to say goodbye.

This charming resort offers a perfect blend of comfort and nature, with spacious rooms, stunning ocean views, and exceptional service. Guests can enjoy the resort’s serene atmosphere, indulge in delicious cuisine, and relax by the pool or on the pristine beach. Waterlovers is ideal for couples, families, and anyone looking to unwind in a relaxed, yet luxurious setting. For a memorable and rejuvenating beach getaway, Waterlovers Beach Resort is a top choice on Kenya’s coast.

Because there are only so few rooms, you have a lot of privacy and always great spots on the beach. Either under palm trees or on the very comfortable beach beds. The beach is very well maintained. The rooms are stylishly furnished and offer more than enough space. The food was always of very good quality and varied. The staff is extremely attentive and helpful. We had a great time.

There aren't enough words to describe this place, but perfection is one of them! I stayed here 4 nights solo after a long camping trip through Kenya and Uganda. It was absolutely wonderful, just what I'd hoped for. So quiet and peaceful, elephant cottage was simply stunning. Very helpful and friendly staff and I could never tire of the views. You will not regret staying in this little slice of paradise - I will treasure my memories of this beautiful place forever. Book it!

Our stay at the Waterlovers Beach Resort was absolutely amazing—a perfect place to unwind and enjoy the beauty of the Kenyan coast. This small, intimate resort is located right on the beach, offering stunning views of the ocean framed by swaying palms and lush trees. The entire property has a tranquil and welcoming atmosphere that makes it easy to relax and feel at home. We stayed in the villa with our group of eight, which was perfect for spending time together while still having plenty of space. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves at night was incredibly soothing. The resort provides plenty of loungers with beautiful beach views, as well as hanging beds and hammocks, making it easy to relax and soak up the serene environment. The ocean is just steps away, and it’s perfect for snorkeling. We were amazed by the vibrant underwater world, spotting countless starfish and colorful fish right off the shore. The staff at Waterlovers are exceptional—friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. They offered great advice and assistance with organizing excursions, which made planning our outings effortless. The food was another highlight: a fantastic selection that catered to both children and vegetarians, with everything freshly prepared and incredibly delicious. The team’s humor and warmth, especially during meals, made us feel right at home. The small bar was another favorite spot, serving excellent cocktails made with fresh fruits. A special thank you to Abdullah, who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. He not only prepared amazing drinks but also included our children in the fun by showing them how to make mocktails and letting them help behind the bar—a truly special experience for them! For those who want to explore, there’s a small shopping area nearby with a supermarket and shops for souvenirs, adding a bit of convenience to the stay. Waterlovers Beach Resort is the perfect place to relax after a safari. Its serene location, excellent service, and welcoming atmosphere make it an ideal spot to unwind and recharge. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable and peaceful beach getaway!

Waterlovers Beach Resort is beyond words, and a real paradise. It is more of a smaller "boutique hotel" with only about 10 accommodations (suites, villa & penthouse), which gives a more authentic, calm and peaceful stay; as it almost feels like you have the place for yourself :). The staff is so lovely, kind and service minded and the food is very good. I especially enjoyed the dinners where the staff set the tables on the sand, making it feel like you were eating on the beach (which you kind of were as well). It has its own pool but being situated right by the beach you can reach the ocean with a few steps. The furnishing and decoration of the rooms, as well as the hotel in general, was so beautiful and provides an exotic, luxurious vibe, whilst still keeping the beautiful African details with a lot of local designs and constructions.

No words can explain the perfection there since first minutes you arrived to Waterlovers. Starting from people from the staff - everybody is a friend here, I loved our chats around. Service is exceptional everywhere you are: management desk, restaurant, bar, beach. You feel like in paradise, so relaxing atmosphere because staff takes care of you in so professional way! Here special thanks to Suliman, Ali, Jaquiline, Lilianne, Harrison - you are such a great people and you made our experience in Waterlovers so special to remember not only place but especially about the people making this place so stunning.:) And Hassan :) - such a special thanks for all our huddles gossiping on monkeys in the resort - you really make friendship environment which is really unique! See you again friend as we will definitely come back;) Beach - just beautiful and safe to swim Rooms - we have water view and villa, both just 10/10:) Villa is fun as monkeys are nearby and this was for us like natual zoo - this is out of world experience to see Colobus monkeys in front of your door Food - Oh! The Chief is a magician, the meals deserve Michelin star for sure there! Bravo!
